Wednesday World Cup Qualifiers Preview and Betting Tips

We have another round of World Cup Qualifiers to look forward to on Wednesday. We preview three matches for you to punt on.

20:45 – Belarus v Belgium

Group E leaders Belgium take on Belarus in Kazan, Russia tomorrow evening. Belarus are in fourth place with just 3 points. They started the month with a 1-0 defeat against the Czech Republic. This was then followed by another agonisingly close 3-2 loss to Wales at the weekend.

Roberto Martinez’s side have had an impressive qualifying campaign as wins over Estonia and the Czech Republic mean they are now six points clear at the top of Group E. Should the Red Devils secure the win, they’ll be on course to finish top of their group for the third successive WCQ campaign.

Romelu Lukaku is unlikely to feature after injuring his thigh in the 3-0 win over the Czech Republic at the weekend. Despite being without their all-time leading goalscorer, I expect Belgium to win this match comfortably after they thumped the same opponents 8-0 in March.

Suggested Bet: Belgium to score over 2.5 goals 1.83

Value Bet: Belgium to score over 4.5 goals 7.75

20:45 – Iceland v Germany

Germany endured a disappointing Euro 2020 campaign and will be intent on making amends at the World Cup next year. Die Mannschaft thrashed Armenia 6-0 in their previous game and will look for a similar result on Wednesday when they take on Iceland.

Despite battling back late on from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with North Macedonia at the weekend, anything less than a victory here will likely mean that Iceland will miss out on World Cup Qualification for Qatar 2022. Iceland have picked up just four points from their five WCQ matches so far.

Kai Havertz missed the game against Armenia last week and is unlikely to be risked in this fixture while Thomas Muller has been ruled out. Johann Gudmundsson is Iceland’s only injury doubt. Germany look a much better side under Hansi Flick and will prove to be a mammoth test for Iceland.

Suggested Bet: Germany to win to zero 1.95

Value Bet: Germany to win by 2 goals 4.00

20:45 – Poland v England

England will travel to Warsaw as they take on Poland in a Group I encounter. The Three Lions will be full of confidence after recording a dominant 4-0 triumph over Andorra in their previous match. They will be looking to extend their lead at the top of the group, having won all five of their WCQ matches.

A thumping 7-1 away victory against San Marino kept Poland in second spot. The hosts can fall back on their fantastic recent home form which has seen them lose just once in their last 14 matches (W9, D4).

These two sides have already met in the current qualifying campaign, with the game at Wembley seeing England run out 2-1 winners. In fact, England’s recent record against Poland has been excellent, with the Three Lions winning five of their last six meetings. Harry Kane came off the bench to score against Andorra; he’s now scored six goals in his last six internationals.

This should promise to be a much tougher test for England than their last two matches, but right now the Three Lions seem to be in excellent form.

Suggested Bet: England to win 1.68

Value Bet: Harry Kane to score anytime 2.05
