2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers

[Joca97]

The Ireland vs Portugal game tonight is an important game for Portugal in terms of taking the lead in the group. Because Serbia are one point ahead of them now but they have an additional game played too. If Portugal manage to beat their weak competitor, they will get two points ahead of Serbia by taking the lead. Ireland have won only one game in the group so far which was against Azerbaijan. They don't have any claim on even the second position so I don't expect them to resist Portugal much. Portugal beat them by 2-1 before and this time I expect a win by a bigger gap.

Portugal should avoid a draw trap otherwise I expect them to win today. Odds are way in favor of Portugal @1.3 comparing to @9.6 for Ireland!
Azerbaijan - Luxembourg odds are competitive @2.6 - 2.9 respectively and obviously anyone could win that random game tho..

Portugal has a difficult match in their hands today and Ireland can honestly make a surprise .Portugal needs a win badly here if they win they will only need a draw in the final match against Serbia to go to the World Cup.Luxemburg match is honestly difficult to predict and i will stay away from that match today

I'm staying away from every single game tonight. Tempted to look at Ireland and Greece but the odds, while pretty, just somehow didn't give me enough juice to go walk up to markets with a bet. Now if the odds were slightly prettier, say 10/1 and up, yeah, I'd have a go.

Internationals might look a bit more interesting after the first round of games or after qualifications are set but otherwise I'm taking a football break on regular markets.

Since Portugal is the most motivated I don't expect any surprises in this match. As for the Azerbaijan-Luxembourg match, the odds are rather strange given the fact that Luxembourg is very successful for itself in this draw and has two victories. Azerbaijan has only one draw in its asset. However, I do not argue with the fact that the result of this match can be completely random and it is worth taking into account only that Azerbaijan will have an advantage by playing at home.

I don't think Portugal will let go of this match even though Portugal have already made sure they qualify for the Qatar 2022 World Cup finals with Serbia. However, I don't think they want to just qualify and have ambitions to take over the leader of the standings from Serbia.
and this is a pretty good opportunity to stay close to Serbia and even overtake them for a while because their points are only 1 point adrift.
On the other hand, Ireland also certainly doesn't want to admit defeat, especially in front of its own supporters.

^^^ Yes, this should be an easy win for Portugal if everything goes correctly. Serbia and Portugal are the real to contenders of this group because the other teams, Ireland Luxembourg and Azerbaijan are far behind in terms of points so I don't think they will cause too many problems for this top 2 teams. Today should be a win for Portugal and Portugal's star players should be on the score sheet.

In terms of motivation, this match is not decisive and the winner of this group will be determined in the last match of the group stage on November 14, when Portugal will play with Serbia at home. Although, of course, many issues can be resolved today, and if Portugal wins the match with Ireland, then it even a draw will be enough, to come out on top in the match with the Serbia.

[FatFork]

Slovakia - Slovenia would be interesting game, but both teams already don't have chances to qualify to World Cup.
Russia - Cyprus, Malta - Croatia and Germany - Liechtenstein games have more than obvious favorites, so it's only worth to look for over 2.5 or 3.5 goals bets.
Odds for Portugal win over Ireland is low, so, over 2.5 is good option there IMO.
Romania - Iceland, very important game for Romania in fight for 2nd place. I'm backing Romania here.

I agree with you.
As for Croatia and Russia, it's expected that the issue of the group winner will be decided in their mutual match in Croatia at the end of the qualifications.
Croatia will miss a very important player,  Kovacic,  and it seems that the coach has decided to replace the goalkeeper Livakovic due to poor form lately.
Petkovic's return will be a great reinforcement for Croatia in the last 2 matches.
I think that Croatia is a better team than Russia and that they will beat Russia.

Yes, Croatia must defeat Malta in tonight's match if they want to go to Qatar. It is quite obvious that in order for Croatia to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, they must defeat both Malta and Russia.

It is no surprise that I placed my bet on Croatia here, as I hope that a full Poljud stadium will create enough motivation for the Croatian team to win.

[kro55]

It can be said that this next World Cup will really be very interesting, especially because of football legends like Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar ...
For all of them, this World Cup will almost certainly be their last chance to win the world title and go into football immortality.
The competition will be great again and world cup will be very uncertain, with a lot of strong teams that have a chance to win the title, such as France, Italy, Spain, England, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, Argentina, Brazil etc.
Very difficult mission for Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar...
It seems to me that in the last 20 years we have a trend that only European teams win titles. Will that change in Qatar?

As everything is going I do not think so, I think that in QATAR it is very likely that a European team will stay with the Cup, I have been following the French league, the Italian league and the German league and actually the level of football shown is very high, it is a soccer rhythm of more speed and strength, I think the players work a lot on their physical condition because they know that in soccer it is very important to run and have the technique, of course the world referents have always been in the eyes of Brazil and Argentina, as they are the countries that have a lot of history and with their players of the moment even more so, but I see European players who are actually on another level.

Well, there is one thing, League football is very much different from international football and we can see that by watching the career of Robert Lewandowski and Luis Suarez. Robert Lewandowski has really great career in League football. He is one of the best goal scorers probably this era has ever seen. But his international career tells us another story as he has very little success in his international career. On the other hand, Luis Suarez has a great international career. I am not saying that Suarez cannot play in club football but what I am saying is Luis Suarez is good at both club football and international football. But in the case of Robert Lewandowski and even Lionel Messi, their international career is not like their club career. So there will always be a gap between club football and international football. So it is hard to judge teams because their players were in form in League football.

Beating Malta is not difficult for Croatia in today's prediction they can win easily but beating Russia of course is not that easy although the opportunity is still there
Group H leaves 2 matches for each team and Russia just need to draw in the last match to secure one ticket in this match we will see the struggle between Croatia and Russia.

[cryptofrka]

Yeah, Croatia is playing Russia at home in the last game of the group and it will directly decide the direct placement. Although Russia would be 1st even with a draw, I'm fairly confident we're the better team at this point in time and that we will win the game on Sunday.
It remains to be seen how much we'll struggle against Malta though - we will win for sure but we know how to make these games way more nervous than they need to be.

In other games, I'm really surprised that Sweden's losing away to Georgia. If they don't win, that will be a big boost for Spain before their game tonight.

There is no doubt that Croatia will get the win in today's match. The question is if they will take the win against Russia, which destroys Cyprus as we speak with 4-0.
So Russia, won't be Malta for sure and Croatia will have to be more than good to bypass it.

[Woodie]

Just watching some of the games being played right now, if Sweden doesn't over turn the  current result against Georgia am done betting for the day, btw these guys were tipped to be favorites for crying out loud but the results they are bringing forward are the total opposite of what the bookies weighted them for   so disappointed with that am seeing.

Otherwise North Macedonia is winning as expected, so is Russia and Luxemburg and a couple of matches starting later on.

[buwaytress]

On the other hand, Luis Suarez has a great international career. I am not saying that Suarez cannot play in club football but what I am saying is Luis Suarez is good at both club football and international football.

Um, are we talking about the same Luis Suarez?

1. The guy who won the treble (Cup, La Liga, Champions League) with Barca in his first season, and was one of THE key players in that crazy Neymar-Messi-Suarez triumvirate?

2. The very same guy who is still La Liga's highest assist+goal record holder (in the same league where Messi and Ronaldo played)?

3. The guy who just won Atletico its first La Liga in a long time, also in his first season with them?

Sure, he's also won international honours, but it's hard to argue for me he's better with his national team than he is at club football. He's won 1 Copa... and was responsible for losing 2019 Copa (missed penalty in QF shootout).

[KTChampions]

Russia, as expected, won with a large score and now everything will be decided in the last round (Croatia is unlikely to lose points in the match with Malta).
Luxembourg denied the opinion of the bookmakers who did not take into account its good game and beat Azerbaijan on away game, 3 wins and 4 losses - perhaps this is one of the best performances in their history.
Surprisingly, Sweden lost to Georgia on away match and now in the last round will be in a much worse position than Spain - they will need only a victory.

I want to congratulate the Danes and Germans!  Their soccer teams are guaranteed to travel to Qatar.  The remaining football teams will have to defend their right to travel to Qatar.  There is a struggle ahead. 

All the participants in the 2022 FIFA World Cup will be recognized only in June 2022. 

But Russia will take part in the Championship.  The participation of Ukraine is also possible. 

Today Russia showed a very good game with Cyprus.  It will not be easy for the Croatian national team to defeat the Russian national team.

[cygan]

the first small surprise is already perfect today - sweden loses 0-2 in georgia and if spain wins today in greece, sweden loses the first place to spain.
it is also exciting in group j, where north macedonia has taken the 2nd place in front of romania by the clear 5-0 away win in armenia. romania receives iceland tonight and has to win the game to pass north macedonia again.

[Dewi Aries]

Portugal ambitions to take over the standings which is only 1 point adrift of Serbia today is the right time to do it before going to the 2nd match
In the last match it was decisive for both teams that whoever wins will be the leader of the standings so there's no reason to waste today's opportunity

Portugal's ambition to lead the table will be easy because I don't think Ireland will be able to win today's game. In 6 match, Ireland was only able to record 1 win, while they recorded 3 defeats and 2 draws. Portugal is not an equal opponent for Ireland, but it is likely that if Portugal struggles to score goals, the match will end in a draw. But I back Portugal to win and lead the table today, 1-3 was a good guess today.

What amazes me is how Denmark is able to maintain win after win without conceding a single goal in the 8 match they played in group F. Scoring 27 goals from 8 match in my opinion is an impressive statistic.

Yes. Croatia seems to be doing quite well at the moment since they have scored early in the game and looks good on the field. It would be nice to secure three points as soon as possible so that they can rest some players for the next game, which will be crucial. Quite a few goals in the match between Russia and Cyprus. I mean, obviously, Russia is the favorite, but I wasn't expecting it to be quite that dominating on the field.

edit: Croatia just conceded an own goal as I was writing this, but it still leads 2:1 3:1.

Is it possible we see a second surprise ? I saw the Ireland vs Portugal match a bit boring no goals no significant attacks
In another match  Germany , Croatia had a goal party 4 goals each in the first half Germany has a chance to score 4 more goals because the opponent is playing with 10 men
