Thursday – Republic of Ireland vs Finland
Expert: John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Finland have been enduring a disappointing Nations League campaign, losing all four of their matches thus far and struggling to keep their defensive structure, especially in away fixtures. With 15 goals conceded across five away games this year, Finland appear vulnerable on the road.
Meanwhile, Ireland, under new manager Heimir Hallgrimsson, have shown signs of improvement. A recent 2-1 victory over Finland adds to their confidence, especially with a home advantage this time. Ireland’s attack has promising young talents, including Evan Ferguson and Ipswich Town’s Sammie Szmodics, who can break down Finland’s leaky defence. Given Finland’s poor form and Ireland’s offensive options, this fixture should favour the hosts as they look to close their Nations League campaign on a positive note.
Best bet: Republic of Ireland to win
Thursday – France vs Israel
Expert: Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Israel have found themselves outmatched in a demanding Nations League group and have lost each of their four games so far. When they faced France previously, Israel suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat, underscoring the gap between the two sides. France, known for their attacking firepower, have been more expressive lately compared to their conservative approach in the Euros.
Playing at home, they will likely dominate, with Didier Deschamps’ squad showing strong form. Israel’s defence has been breached regularly, with three or more goals conceded in five of their last seven matches. Given France’s offensive momentum and Israel’s defensive frailties, a comfortable win by a margin of at least two goals appears probable for Les Bleus.
Best bet: France -2 to win
Friday – Denmark vs Spain
Expert: Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Spain come into this clash on a winning streak, having secured three consecutive victories in the Nations League, where they’ve scored eight times and conceded just once. Their impressive form has propelled them to the top of their group. Denmark, although a capable side, have not managed to overcome Spain since 1993, a testament to the Spaniards’ superiority in this fixture.
Their previous meeting ended in a narrow 1-0 win for Spain, highlighting their tactical control. Spain’s solid defence, coupled with their recent form, suggests they have the edge in this encounter. A win would consolidate their position at the top of the table and continue their strong Nations League run.
Best bet: Spain to win
Friday – Portugal vs Poland
Expert: Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Portugal’s Nations League games have consistently been high-scoring, with three of their four matches seeing both teams find the net. Manager Roberto Martinez has adopted a more attacking approach, which has revitalised Portugal’s offence and led to multiple high-scoring games. Meanwhile, Poland’s defensive woes persist, having conceded ten goals in their group campaign.
However, Poland have managed to score in eight of their last nine matches, showing they can threaten even against tougher opponents. With Portugal’s potent attack and Poland’s defensive inconsistencies, a game with over 2.5 goals looks highly plausible, especially with both teams’ tendencies to score.
Best bet: Over 2.5 goals
Saturday – Turkey vs Wales
Expert: Gram Dodd; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Wales have enjoyed a resurgence under Craig Bellamy, with an unbeaten run in the Nations League giving them plenty of confidence. Turkey, however, are formidable at home, scoring in 14 of their last 15 home matches. Wales have also been productive in attack, scoring five goals across their last three games.
When the two teams met in September, Wales dominated the play but had to settle for a draw. Given Turkey’s strong home scoring record and Wales’ recent form under Bellamy, both teams appear likely to find the net. A score draw seems plausible in what could be an exciting, back-and-forth encounter.
Best bet: Both teams to score
Saturday – Montenegro vs Iceland
Expert: Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale: Iceland’s Nations League journey has been anything but dull, with 15 goals scored across their four games, including recent high-scoring affairs with Wales and Turkey. Montenegro, on the other hand, have been struggling, losing each of their last six international matches.
Their recent form at home is concerning as they’ve suffered back-to-back defeats, conceding multiple goals each time. Iceland’s attacking strategy has proven effective, but they also leave defensive gaps, creating the conditions for another high-scoring clash. With both teams needing to salvage some pride, an open game with over 2.5 goals seems like a solid prediction.
Best bet: Over 2.5 goals
