Awkward situation for Norway after getting an unexpected 0-0 draw vs Latvia. Now Turkey is tied up with them 18 points with Turkey being 2nd thanks to goal difference. Next game for Turkey is vs Montenegro while Norway will face Netherlands. Since both matches will take place at the same time Tuesday, I doubt Netherlands will go easy unless it secures a win vs Montenegro today so they will be first regardless of the last game result.

Now, after the Netherlands drew the situation really became interesting - if Norway and Turkey win in the last round, then the Netherlands will take only third place. I doubt that this will happen (however, with regard to Turkey, I am also not sure that they will win easily), but the game between the Netherlands and Norway will be as intense as possible.

I think the Netherlands draw against Montenegro would only make things further complicated for Norway, as they now need to defeat Netherlands in the last game to stand a chance of qualifying, meanwhile all the Netherlands needs to secure top spot would be at least a draw, the team with the most to gain now would be Turkey, a win against Montenegro would guarantee them at least a spot in the playoffs.

Russian were close to keep the first place before everything turned around and Croatia overtake them at the end of the game. I didn't follow the match but odds were in favour of Croatia. I read several times complaints about the bad weather and field and I am not sure if it helped one of the team more than the other..
20 minutes left for 3 other games to start and know if Romania or North Macedonia will hold the second position after Germany.

Croatia's 1 goal was scored by an own goal from the Russian defender, otherwise they would have been able to stay in first place in Group H


I am very curious about the final result that will appear in the armenia vs germany match, whether germany will make more than 3 goals or 2 - 0 will last until the match is over

WTF is going in Croatia - Russia match?  Undecided  Angry
Of course, I understand that the rain is heavy, but it looks like the field does not have a drainage system at all and now a significant part of the field has turned into a puddle where the ball rolls along strange trajectories or gets stuck. Goalkeeper squares have turned into a mash. I think long-range low kicks are dangerous in such conditions because the ball can bounce off a bump right in front of the goalkeeper and suddenly change its trajectory.
You don't often can see such terrible pitch on such level, that heavy rain made it impossible to play football. Nothing surprising that such stupid goal was scored. Croatia pushed hard, Russia parked bus whole game and weren't able to make 3-4 passes. Game was very nervous but I think Croatia deserved to win.


Malta 6 - 0 Slovakia

 Shocked

it's been a big humiliation for slovakia
You mean Malta 0:6 Slovakia? Malta got 2 red cards in start of 2nd half and it was big factor today.

Oh my mistake, thanks for the correction, when I was writing I was watching two games at the same time, actually even now I'm watching  two games at the same time
Need to edit with your score because Slovakia is winner with 0-6, I give recommended for my friend keep odds to Slovakia but not bigger odds giving because Malta is not favorite country in football. They only collected 5 points from one winning and two draw from world cup qualification H group. I think with red card got by Malta player is true why they can loss with bigger score.

New Matches have started. Romania leads 1-0 against Lichtenstein. North Macedonia have scored 1 goal against Iceland so far. Germany, on the other hand, leads the fight against Armenia 1-0 with the beautiful goal scored by Kai Havertz. I think the teams that are ahead in the match results will win. On the other hand, Croatia managed to beat Russia 1-0, albeit with difficulty. Slovenia beat Cyprus 2-1. Slovakia scored more goals and won 6-0 as I predicted.

Finally, the match between Croatia and Russia ended and Croatia won 1:0.
Very difficult and bad match, heavy rain and few real chances for Croatia.
In the end, with the help of luck, Croatia beat Russia but didn't play well.
There was no real plan and idea in the attack and the Russian defense easily stopped all Croatian attacks.
The Russians made only one mistake in defense and that decided the winner.
By the way, it must be said that traditionally Croatia has always been good in such crucial matches, which can't be said for Russia.

Let this match decide nothing, but I am impressed by the enthusiasm of Slovakia - during the first 15 minutes they have already scored three goals against Malta  Grin
Russia still looks weak against Croatia and is practically playing without the ball. Maybe this is a tactical idea to play on counterattacks? However, Croatia does not come to dangerous strikes and live odds practically do not change.

Croatia managed to beat Russia in the match that ended a few hours earlier where they managed to win 1-0 and at the same time secure automatic qualification to the Qatar 2022 world cup while sending Russia to the play-offs.and I think this is a deserved result considering that Croatia played very well. good where they controlled malposition reaching 64% and shot 5 shots on target even though the goal was born from an own goal the Russian players congrats to Croatia for advancing to the Qatar world cup finals

We have left the first games of the day behind. And as far as I see, the most important one of them was absolutely Croatia - Russia. Because it was really important regarding the leadership of their group. It was a must-win game for Croatia to be able to take the lead. And they were able to do what is expected from them. Croatia had the complete control of the game and they were enormously dominant. Despite this, they barely scored in the 81st minute and won by 1-0. But a win was the needed thing for them and they got it which is the most important point.

France vs Kazakhstan is very surprising in just 12 minutes Mbappe has scored 2 goals

mbappe is on fire, he will most likely make a hat-trick in today's match. my final score prediction => 4 - 0 for France win

Its not surprising i wouldnt be surprised if it was in the end of the match 6-0 for France. They didnt defeat anyone with a big result for a very long time. We can see Mbappe scoring a few more goals in this match if he play until full time.
a total of 4 goals were scored by mbappe in yesterday's match, there were several opportunities that mbappe created but did not manage to score a goal


Slovakia vs malta also ended with a lot score. Duda managed to make a hat-trick for Slovakia

What a stressful game to watch. The pitch was unplayable, I thought that the Russians will manage to hold on to the draw although we were playing much, much better.

At the end the goal was lucky but the victory is still fully deserved. We were better today and were better than Russia throughout the whole qualifiers as well.

Modrić has shown once again what an outstanding player he is, the pitch was unplayable and he was still gliding around. Unreal.

Croatia 0 - 0 Russia

it is very difficult to play on this field in this rain
Field is terrible, rain has been falling whole day here in Croatia. To make things worse we needed the win and had to attack all the time. We were better for the whole match but without proper 100% chances created, just a couple of great long distance efforts.

Good think a Russian defender decided to help us out an score an own goal Smiley Still a couple of minutes till the end, hopefully it will stay 1:0.

I've two bets in Group J, obviously not the most popular selections available today but i like it for some reason:

Romania Over 3 @1.85 X

Romania couldn't beat Iceland at home despite dominating the entire match, and the race for second place in their group is no longer entirely up in their hands. I think they can easily score 4 or 5 goals, and they probably will. Romania has won fairly comfortably in Liechtenstein by scores of 3:0 and 8:1 the last time these two matched up against each other.

N. Macedonia over 0.5 goals; Total goals U3.5; Iceland O1.5 corners @2.00 X

That's the other match in Group J, and it's a must-win for North Macedonia if they want to keep their hopes for the World Cup in Qatar next year. I don't expect to see many goals today, N. Macedonia will most likely sneak one after the break and win, but i wouldn't be surprised if this ends in a draw.

The Croatia-Russia match is still goalless. Slovenia managed to take a 1-0 lead in the second half with Zajc's goal against Cyprus. In the match where Malta saw 2 red cards, Slovakia leads the match 3-0 with 3 goals in 16 minutes. We may see more goals as Malta remains with 9 players.

In today's elimination matches (not entirely elimination, but for some teams this will really be the end of the tournament) odds are sa follows:
‍Croatia - Russia 1,58 - 4,10 - 5,40
Portugal - Serbia 1,61 - 3,95  - 5,40
Spain - Sweden 1,38 - 4,80 - 8,00
In my opinion, Croatia is overvalued, Portugal is underestimated, and in the pair Spain - Sweden the coefficients are adequate. Probably a multi-bet on Portugal to win, Spain to win and not to lose to Russia would be a good choice.
+ Croatia vs Russia I predict a draw and I am not excited about the match because I think it would be a very boring match.
+Portugal vs Serbia unlike popular prediction I think Serbia might win portugal in this match, the portuguese team will not be 100% today and Serbia will be expecting to take a very glorified Victory home
+Spain vs Sweden spanish glory is fading like that of Barcelona but the coach has been working hard on the team I think spain will have the victory.

The first half of the match between Croatia and Russia ended 0:0.
A tough match with very few nice actions and chances.
Russia plays very well in defense and doesn't give much chance to Croatia.
It is obvious that Croatia will have to take a lot more risks and attack with more players in the second half.
A very uncertain match.

Things were going badly for Turkey in WCQ G group. However, the results obtained last night were such a surprise that all the results Turkey wanted came true. Losing 6-1 to the Netherlands in the general average, Turkey was down by -5 average. Their 6-0 win against Gibraltar yesterday carried Turkey up in the goal difference. They are currently +1 average ahead of Norway. As the Netherlands conceded 2 goals in the last minutes and drew 2-2 with Montenegro, there is even a possibility for Turkey to become the leader. In the last matches, Turkey - Montenegro, Netherlands - Norway will match. Turkey will want to win this match with all its might. If they win, they even have a chance to lead according to the Netherlands v Norway score. They will secure second place.  I'm looking forward to Tuesday.

Netherlands must secure the standings in my opinion they will not waste the opportunity. Turkey finished in 2nd place
while Norway is in a difficult situation they need a miracle to win because the draw is not enough however we will wait for how the match in this group ends.


The Netherlands will definitely win in my opinion. They have to play an excellent game against Norway. Norway will not have Haaland on the striker line. The Netherlands is one of the best teams in Europe with its excellent players. We can say that Turkey took the second place. Norway will most likely finish third in the group after failing to beat Latvia. Of course this is football, anything can happen.
