Welcome to the World Cup Qualifier Tips for the 11th to 13th November 2021 We’re now reaching the crunch stage of World Cup qualification, with some important issues to be decided. Portugal are tussling it out with Serbia for top spot in their group, while Wales and Scotland will both hope to secure a play-off place. Meanwhile, England need to make sure of top spot in their group. THURSDAY 11TH NOVEMBER Republic of Ireland v Portugal, KO:19:45 Portugal left it very late to turn the reverse fixture on its head after trailing 1-0 in Faro, although Cristiano Ronaldo was the match winner and he can cause more damage in Dublin. The Republic of Ireland might be limited in terms of chance creation for this clash and we think a Portugal win and both teams not to score could be the best play. Ruben Dias and Joao Cancelo form one half of a strong defensive wall. BEST BET: Portugal + BTTS No Greece v Spain, KO:19:45 Greece have been spirited in qualifying and beat Sweden to keep their dream alive. It will be a tall order against a vibrant Spanish side. However, we’re expecting a high-scoring affair considering that the stakes are high. The Greeks will hope to get on the front foot and they should find the net even if they’re on the losing team.

BEST BET: BTTS Yes FRIDAY 12TH NOVEMBER Moldova v Scotland, KO:17:00 Steve Clarke’s side are in the hunt for second spot and they’ll aim to tough it out in Chisinau. When the teams met in early September, Lyndon Dykes’ goal proved to be the difference. Therefore, we should expect another low-scoring win for the Scots. Scott McTominay and John McGinn are going to be a foil for a defensive wall against a team who have averaged half a goal per game. BEST BET: Scotland + Under 3.5 Goals Italy v Switzerland, KO:19:45 It’s been a tight battle between these teams for top spot in this group. The reverse fixture ended goalless and we’re expecting a similar outcome at the Stadio Olimpico. A draw would suit the Italians considering their favourable goal difference. They might be able to edge this contest although it could be defences on top. Both sides have only conceded once thus far. BEST BET: Under 2.5 Goals England v Albania, KO:19:45 England were thwarted by Poland in their previous Wembley clash and they’ll want to deliver a professional performance. The visitors still have an outside chance of a top two berth, although the Three Lions should be able to stop them scoring. Therefore, we are going to back Jordan Pickford to keep a clean sheet as part of their victory. BEST BET: England + BTTS No SATURDAY 13TH NOVEMBER Wales v Belarus, KO:19:45 Wales are looking strong to finish second behind Belgium. The Reds are massive favourites to beat Belarus and a three-point haul looks to be on the cards. While Robert Page’s side claimed a last-gasp 3-2 win in the reverse fixture, they might be able to shut out their opponents on this occasion. They have failed to score on the road so far. BEST BET: Wales + BTTS No These are the predictions for Game Week 9 of the 2022 World Cup qualifying phase. With Scotland, Wales and England predicted to have positive outcomes to their respective matches.
