Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan is in an extremely difficult phase and so far has not been able to show any significant successes in the European or World Cup qualifiers. Under the guidance of coach Fernando Santos, there have been 9 defeats in 11 games, with the defense appearing particularly weak and conceding at least two goals in 9 matches. The team only has two goalless draws against similarly weak opponents and faces the possibility of finishing the qualification without any points.

Ukraine
The Ukrainian national team shows a combative attitude despite recent defeats. Coach Serhij Rebrov's team was able to keep up well against France and impressed with a high expected goal count (1.34 xG). However, Ukraine’s defense also has problems, conceding goals consistently for eight games. Nevertheless, the current playing strength provides enough potential to clearly prevail against Azerbaijan and collect important points.

Injuries
Azerbaijan must do without Ahundzade (injury). Ukraine is missing Lunìn, Tsygankov, Yaremchuk, Tymchyk, and Mykolenko due to injuries.

Head-to-Head
Previous direct encounters between Azerbaijan and Ukraine show a clear dominance of the Ukrainian team, which mostly emerged as the winner. Azerbaijan has hardly been able to make an impact in recent matches.

Match Prediction
Ukraine is the clear favorite and should win the match against a weak opponent from Azerbaijan confidently. The hosts show little offensive power and can hardly create chances, while the guests bring enough attacking quality despite defensive shortcomings. Therefore, it is recommended to bet on a Ukraine win. The odds of 1.50 reflect a relatively safe outcome and offer an attractive bet on the clear outsider.

My tip: Ukraine win (1.50)

Albania
The Albanian national team is under pressure after a mixed performance in their previous matches. With five points in their pocket, a home win against Latvia is mandatory to maintain chances for second place in the group. However, the last 14 encounters show that Albania has only won one match by two or more goals difference. Additionally, a few months ago, they only managed a 1-1 draw against Latvia, costing valuable points.

Latvia
The Latvian team presents itself as a side with great fighting spirit and a strong defensive setup. With four points from four games and only one defeat – a clear 0-3 against England – they are difficult to beat. Although Latvia has little hope left for World Cup qualification, they remain resilient on foreign ground and can cause problems for Albania with an extra fighting effort.

Injuries
Albania will miss Ramadani, Muci, and Kastrati, all sidelined due to injuries. Latvia, on the other hand, has their full squad available.

Head-to-Head
The direct encounter about three months ago ended in a 1-1 draw. Overall, the history of meetings shows that both teams are evenly matched, with a slight edge toward Albania, but without clear dominance.

Match Prediction
Although Latvia is considered the underdog, the Albanian team is currently not in their best form and has shown weaknesses in recent matches. However, they benefit from the home advantage and the urgent necessity to win. Based on the available information and the supported odds of 1.38 for an Albanian win, the hosts are favored and should secure three points with a focused performance.

My Tip: Albania to win (1.38)

Hungary
Hungary, under the management of Marco Rossi, has shown rather disappointing performances this year so far. Since October 2024, they have only managed a single win, and that only in a friendly match against Azerbaijan. In official competitions, things are not going well for the team: they were relegated from the UEFA Nations League in March and most recently had to settle for a 2-2 draw in the World Cup qualifiers in Ireland despite leading 2-0. Direct qualification to the World Cup will be difficult due to the strong group with Portugal, so Hungary can at best hope for second place.

Portugal
Under coach Roberto Martínez, Portugal shows very strong form and reinforced its position among Europe's top teams by winning the Nations League in June. The midfield line, consisting of PSG champions and Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, guarantees strong game organization. Cristiano Ronaldo, who has scored at least one goal in each of the last four official matches, fits in perfectly and further strengthens the team's offensive power. In the opening game of the World Cup qualifiers, Portugal achieved an impressive 5-0 away victory against Armenia.

Injuries
Hungary will be without Adam due to injury. Portugal has to do without Dalot and Rafa Leao, both also injured.

Head-to-head
In the 21st century, Hungary and Portugal have met six times in official competitions. Hungary was only able to score points once, which underlines Portugal's clear favorite role. In matches against Hungary, Portugal usually scored a clear number of goals, often three or more per game.

Match prognosis
Portugal is the clear favorite in this duel and is in outstanding form. Hungary’s home record is weak, as they have not won a home game since June last year. Portugal, on the other hand, impressed with a 5-0 win in the first group game. The quality and stability of the Portuguese squad combined with recent performances therefore strongly argue for a Portuguese victory.

My tip: Portugal win (1.48)

Norway
Norway enters this match as clear favorites. With four wins from four games, the Scandinavians dominate the qualification group and are well on their way to direct World Cup qualification. Especially the offensive unit around strikers Haaland and Sorloth is extremely effective, having scored a total of 13 goals. The clear 3-0 home win against Italy in June underlines the strength of the team.

Moldova
Moldova is the clear bottom of the group and is still waiting for its first point. The team has only managed to score against Estonia so far but suffered heavy defeats, even against comparable opponents. The defensive playing style with five defenders has so far brought no success, and the guests are hardly dangerous offensively.

Injuries
Norway will be missing Langas, Torstvedt, and Botheim due to injuries. Moldova has to do without Mudrak, Kozhokar, and D. Puskas.

Head-to-head matches
The last five encounters between Norway and Moldova have all been won by Norway, most recently a 5-0 home win in March 2025. Moldova has yet to score a goal in Oslo and has lost every match against Norway so far.

Match prediction
Norway's clear superiority and Moldova's defensive weakness point to a victory for the hosts. Due to Norway’s solid play and Moldova’s generally low offensive strength, the bet "Under 4.5 goals" is recommended. Norway will dominate, but a very high scoreline is unlikely. The odds of 1.45 for this are attractive and correspond to the expected match development.

My tip: Under 4.5 goals (1.45)

Mansfield Town
Mansfield Town is considered the clear favorite in this Football League Trophy match. Although they have not won in the last three games (one draw, two losses), they had a streak of four wins before that. Additionally, they managed to decisively defeat Harrogate Town in the previous two encounters with an aggregate score of 13:3.

Harrogate Town
Harrogate Town currently shows an unstable form and has not managed to achieve convincing results in recent matches. In games against Crawley Town (0:1), Bromley (0:2), and Chesterfield (1:2) they remained winless. The team struggles to create chances and is also vulnerable defensively.

Injuries
No specific injury information is available.

Head-to-Head
In the recent head-to-head encounters between Mansfield Town and Harrogate Town, Mansfield Town clearly dominated, with an aggregate score of 13:3 over two games.

Prediction for the Match
Due to the strong previous duels and the better overall form, we recommend a bet on Mansfield Town to win. The odds of 1.63 are attractive and reflect the team’s favorite status.

My Tip: Mansfield Town to win (1.63)

Gambia
Gambia currently impresses with strong game organization and result orientation. After a surprisingly clear 3-1 victory against Kenya, they showed a dominant performance especially in the first half, with strong chance conversion. Coach Jonny McKinstry’s team relies on a compact defense to maintain the lead, a strategy they have recently practiced successfully. Gambia is also motivated to improve their standing in the table and take revenge for the defeat in the first encounter against Burundi.

Burundi
Burundi recently lost narrowly to group leaders Côte d’Ivoire 0-1, thereby losing all chances of World Cup qualification. Despite strong defensive work, coach Etienne Ndayiragije’s team showed hardly any offensive actions and could not record a valid shot on goal. On away grounds, the Burundians have been weak lately, losing four of five away matches. However, their defensive stability is likely to pose a challenge for Gambia.

Injuries
Currently, there are no specific injury reports for Gambia or Burundi that could significantly affect the game.

Head-to-Head
In the previous encounter in this qualification round, Burundi won at home against Gambia. Nevertheless, the current form curve favors Gambia, who have stabilized after several matches and recently achieved clear wins.

Match Prediction
Gambia currently holds a clear class difference and is in better condition. Home strength and offensive potential should be the basis for another win. Burundi appears burned out and lacking genuine motivation away from home. A disciplined defense from Gambia will also hardly allow Burundi's attack to flourish. Therefore, we recommend betting on a Gambia win with odds of 1.63 as an attractive wagering option.

My Tip: Gambia to win (1.63)
