Netherlands The Netherlands have been unbeaten in qualifying matches for two years and present themselves as one of the strongest teams in Europe. With a streak of five games without defeat against Finland and most recently two consecutive wins, the Oranje enter the game as clear favorites. Despite some defensive weaknesses, especially in the final third, the team boasts high quality particularly in offense, led by fast wingers like Denzel Dumfries and Jeremie Frimpong.
Finland Historically, Finland has hardly established itself as a strong force in away games and has not been able to beat a top team on foreign soil this century. Although they have managed to surprise at home, for example with a win against Poland, their chances in Amsterdam are slim. The Finns will try to keep up, but their few away wins in recent years mostly came against considerably weaker opponents.
Injuries The Netherlands will be without K. Timber due to injury. Finland must compete without the injured players Gradecki and Hokans; additionally, Kamara was not nominated.
Head-to-head meetings In the six previous encounters in the Netherlands, Finland achieved only one draw; otherwise, the Dutch team always won. In the current qualification tournament, the Netherlands won clearly at home in June with 2-0 without conceding a goal.
Match forecast The Netherlands are overwhelming favorites in this match. The Finns’ style in long-distance play opens spaces for quick counterattacks, which additionally benefits the hosts’ offensive power. Statistics also show that matches involving the Netherlands are often high-scoring; five of the seven matches in 2025 had at least four goals. Therefore, a bet on over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.30 is highly recommended. A big win for the Netherlands by multiple goals is very likely.
My tip: Over 2.5 goals (1.30)
Tip
Scotland - Belarus
When: 18:00 Where: World Cup Qualification, Europe
Scotland The Scottish team enters the World Cup qualification with a strong performance and is tied with Denmark for a top spot after the first round. Coach Steve Clarke's squad impresses both defensively and offensively: With only one goal conceded in three matches and a win over Greece (3-1), Scotland shows very solid form. Especially in their own stadium and supported by the “Tartan Army,” the team is hard to beat.
Belarus The Belarusian national team is struggling to remain competitive. After four consecutive losses, conceding 17 goals, and with limited home game opportunities, defensive weaknesses and lack of attacking efficiency have dominated so far. Despite a final push, Belarus has not yet secured any crucial points and will find it difficult to stand up to the in-form Scots.
Injuries Scotland will have to do without Ferguson and Christie, who are out due to suspensions. Hicky is doubtful. Belarus is missing Politevich, Prischepa, and Malkevich due to injuries.
Head-to-Head In their previous encounter on neutral ground, Scotland defeated Belarus 2-0. Scotland dominated the match and clearly controlled the game flow, underscoring their favorite status in the upcoming home fixture.
Match Prediction Given Scotland's clear superiority and Belarus's defensive weaknesses, we expect a high-scoring game. Scotland will be eager to improve their goal tally in the race for the group lead, while Belarus could at least score a consolation goal. The combination of a strong home offense and the guests' defensive problems suggests more than 2.5 goals.
My tip: Over 2.5 goals (1.45)
Tip
Lithuania - Poland
When: 20:45 Where: 2025/26 World Cup Qualification
Lithuania Although Lithuania has lost its chances to participate in the World Cup, they show themselves to be a strong opponent at home. Three draws in six games reflect this. Especially at home, they often manage to challenge strong teams like Finland and the Netherlands. Despite deficits, Lithuania was able to impress offensively and scored five goals in three home games. With home advantage and great motivation, they will do everything to excite their fans.
Poland Poland continues to fight for World Cup qualification and is under enormous pressure not to lose points. However, the team has shown uncertainties recently, even in home games the team does not appear convincing. Especially away, they have not won for over a year, which could show again in Kaunas. Players like Robert Lewandowski must, however, lead the team to victories.
Injuries Lithuania is missing Kazukolovas, Kuchis (both injured), and Dolznikov (yellow card suspension). Poland has to do without Zalewski and Moder (both injured).
Head-to-Head Poland has so far not recorded an away win in direct encounters against Lithuania. In the first leg of the qualification in Warsaw, Poland narrowly won 1-0, with Lithuania defending strongly for over 80 minutes and narrowly preventing a loss.
Match Prediction Poland does not feel comfortable away and has not achieved an away win against Lithuania for a long time. Lithuania plays strongly at home and is motivated despite lost qualification hopes, not without chance. The analysis suggests that Poland will be vulnerable to dropping points in this match. Therefore, we confidently recommend betting on a Poland win with odds of 1.43.
My tip: Poland win (1.43)
Tip
Denmark - Greece
When: 20:45 Where: World Cup Qualification Group C
Denmark Denmark is showing extremely strong performance in the qualification, especially with a flawless defense and an effective offense. In three games, the Scandinavians have not conceded a single goal and have already scored nine. Brian Riemer's team thus rightfully sits at the top of the table and aims for direct World Cup qualification in the final match against Scotland.
Greece Greece is struggling, particularly in defense. Although the team conceded only four goals in 2024, all came in matches against England. In 2025, they have already conceded eight goals in five qualification games. The 0-3 home loss against Denmark in September clearly highlights their current problems. Without defensive improvements, further defeats are threatening.
Head-to-Head The most recent encounter in Piraeus ended with a clear 3-0 away win for Denmark. Greece hardly made any impact and managed only one shot on goal. Recent years also show a clear dominance of Denmark in home games.
Match Prediction Denmark is the clear favorite. With a nearly flawless defense and a strong offense, the team will pose major problems for the Greek defense. Greece, having conceded three goals in promising matches, has little chance of scoring points in Copenhagen. Therefore, we recommend the bet on Denmark to win at odds of 1.65 as a safe and sensible choice.
My Tip: Denmark to win (1.65)
Tip
Aldosivi - Huracán
When: 19:30 Where: Argentina Premier Division
Aldosivi Aldosivi is one of the weakest teams in the Argentine league this season. The team no longer really seems to expect to qualify for the playoffs, as they currently have a nine-point deficit to eighth place in Group A. Despite theoretical chances, they win too rarely and showed a slightly better form in the Apertura but still did not make it into the top 8 there either.
Huracán Huracán is in seventh place in Group A and is fighting to remain within the playoff zone. The team has earned points in four of their last five games and even reached the final in the Apertura, indicating good chances of maintaining their playoff position. Huracán is just one point ahead of the ninth-placed team.
Injuries No specific information about injuries is available.
Head-to-Head In the last five head-to-head encounters between Aldosivi and Huracán, Huracán won three times. This shows a slight superiority of the visitors in the direct matchups.
Match Prediction Although Huracán does not frequently win away games, the team has very good chances against Aldosivi. Aldosivi lost almost half of their home games this season. The previous encounters suggest a close game with few goals. Since in most games both teams have scored only a few goals in total, we recommend the bet "Under 2.5 goals" with odds of 1.30.
My tip: Under 2.5 goals (1.30)
Tip
Mali - Madagascar
When: 21:00 Where: Africa World Cup Qualification
Mali Mali showed a strong dependence on Kamory Doumbia during the qualification, who significantly contributed to their success with crucial goals. Recently, the "Eagles" won confidently 2-0 against Chad. Although Mali no longer has sporting chances to advance, they consistently appeared confident and combative.
Madagascar Madagascar is fighting in excellent form for the next steps towards World Cup participation. With a stable defense that allowed a maximum of one goal in seven out of eight matches and effective chance conversion, the "Zebu" recently secured a 2-1 win against Comoros and currently occupy second place in the group standings.
Injuries At the time of analysis, there are no reports of significant injuries or absences on either team, so the strongest lineups are expected.
Head-to-head In the last encounter, Mali and Madagascar drew 0-0, with Madagascar successfully neutralizing key player Kamory Doumbia through tight man-marking. The duels are often fiercely contested and characterized by solid defense from both teams.
Match prediction Although Mali is considered the favorite, many factors point to a continued strong performance by Madagascar, who are in top form and defensively very stable. Mali will try to leverage their home strength and confirm clear favorite status. Due to individual quality and slight advantages in the squad, we expect a narrow victory for Mali in this game.
My tip: Mali win (1.45)
Tip
Djibouti - Sierra Leone
When: 21:00 Where: World Cup Qualification Africa
Djibouti Djibouti is considered one of the weakest teams in the world and has not achieved any wins in the current qualification process. With only four goals scored in nine matches, the team shows significant offensive weaknesses and a vulnerable defense, having already conceded 31 goals in nine games.
Sierra Leone Despite high ambitions, Sierra Leone lost the World Cup qualification through a narrow defeat against a direct competitor. The team showed a moderate offensive performance with ten goals in nine matches, but it is clearly stronger than Djibouti, even though the motivation for the remaining games has decreased.
Injuries No specific information on injuries within both teams is available.
Head-to-Head In the direct encounter between the two teams, the Sierra Leone Stars narrowly prevailed 3-1. Both teams scored, indicating a fairly balanced match with a few goals. However, past games suggest the superiority of the Leone Stars.
Match Prediction Although Sierra Leone is clearly stronger compared to their opponent, the defensive vulnerabilities of both teams suggest a game with moderate goal scoring. Djibouti’s weak offense and Sierra Leone’s lack of motivation for a renewed attack hint at a close, low-scoring match. Therefore, the bet on "Under 3.5 Goals" with odds of 1.35 is highly recommended.
My Tip: Under 3.5 Goals (1.35)
Tip
Egypt - Guinea-Bissau
When: 21:00 Where: World Cup Qualification Africa
Egypt Egypt has already qualified for the World Cup and is performing confidently in the qualification: nine matches with seven wins and only two draws, losing none at home. The Pharaohs have been defensively very stable, conceding only two goals in nine games, just one of them in their home stadium. At home, they are a force with four wins and a goal difference of 11:1.
Guinea-Bissau Guinea-Bissau no longer has a chance to qualify for the World Cup and is currently in a disappointing slump with twelve games without a win, including nine losses. The team scored few goals and holds a negative goal difference in away qualifiers, with only four points out of twelve possible. Overcoming the Pharaohs' defense will be very difficult.
Injuries There is no information available on injuries, so both teams are expected to field their best line-ups.
Head-to-Head The last match between Egypt and Guinea-Bissau ended in a 1-1 draw away for Egypt. However, on home soil, the Pharaohs remain unbeaten and aim to continue this streak.
Match Prediction Egypt will be motivated despite having already qualified, aiming to preserve their flawless home record, especially since Guinea-Bissau took points in the first leg. Due to Egypt’s strong defense and Guinea-Bissau’s offensive weakness, it is very unlikely that both teams will score. Therefore, the bet "Both teams to score: No" with odds of 1.30 is highly recommended.
