Betting on Wales in that game is a no brainer for us. If they win we get some money and if they don't that means that everything is up to us. Then again, with our current form and issues with the roster I am not sure that we can count on wins vs Latvia and Armenia.


That wouldn't be the first time something like that happened to us. Back in 1998 we were 3rd in the world and then we didn't qualify for 2000 Euro in Belgium & Netherland, and that was the only Euro qualifications that we failed to. Fingers crossed that history doesn't repeat itself.

Previously Switzerland only able to gets draw result from Belarus and at that time Switzerland even almost be lose but today they want to secured one place to qualified at group I so that's why i am sure Switzerland will aiming win result and it's not hard for them to collect 3 point from this match because just like you said before Switzerland has been won from Israel on March and recently i have checked the odds for both teams and Switzerland has odds @1.47 so it's clearly they are the favourite

Regarding team condition i can see there were no players who got injured because the players such as Akanji, Xhaka and Shaqiri will be available today and if Switzerland can able to beat Israel today then they will have 18 points and it makes Switzerland certainly will qualified and i think Switzerland will going to win this match because Switzerland squad quality is above to Israel and their recent matches results also more good than Israel so although Switzerland odds is not high i think this is safe bet

Saw this and found it interesting -

Obviously it’s based on current standings and teams qualified and others in a good place to qualify. Could change a little with remaining games results but it’s there or thereabouts.

Even if they win, Israel will have fewer points than Switzerland. Although I think Switzerland will not lose this game. Especially since the match will be played not in Israel, but in Hungary, so there will be no home field advantage. I think that Switzerland will not have any problems today. It's funny to say, but it will be a meeting of two bankers.

There is an Israel - Switzerland game tonight which is the only game of the day at the same time. Israel played an away game against Kosovo three days ago and got a disappointing result like a 1-0 loss. This even included Kosovo in the race for qualifying for Euro 2024. Now they are hosting Switzerland which got a really solid result against themselves by 3-0 before.

Maybe Israel don't concede so many goals. Their defending is similar to Switzerland now. However when it comes to scoring productivity they are really bad. 7 goals in 7 games against 20 goals in 7 games here. Considering their previous head-to-head as well I don't expect Switzerland to lose here.

Today we do have a game for Euro 2024 qualifiers and Israel will face Swiss in order to decide who will go to euro and who will now. For this game , I really hope Swiss will manage to win the game and help Romania to qualify further after a very long wait of 8 years to not bet at Euro.

There is also 2nd scenario where Israel wins the game and the next game it will be against Romania but I'll be honest and admit that Romania really have a strong team capable of beating all the teams from the group so it's not a miracle that they are on 1st place. Until then , my country needs to qualify and as a Romanian , tonight it will be an important one for us. 

Well.. in a way, you are right. I was closely checking the itinerary, and it seems like Croatia has only a slight advantage (and that too because Wales need to play against Turkey). Anyway, it will be the ultimate irony in case Wales and Turkey qualifies ahead of Croatia after the latter finished at the third position in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Anyway, we will get to know about it in less than a week from now. Both the teams will play their remaining matches on 18th November and 21st November. So we will get a clear picture either by 18th, or latest by 21st.

For Wales, even a home game with Turkey will be difficult, because although Turkey has already qualified and does not have much motivation, they can play without any pressure and I doubt that they will give victory to Wales. The situation in Group D is in favor of Croatia - they have two easy matches left, while Wales have two difficult ones.

As Turkey have guaranteed qualifying from the group it is really very hard to predict how they would play against Wales in the last match away. I'm very happy for us to have managed to qualifying from this group. I'm expecting Croatia and Wales both to win tomorrow. However it wouldn't be an easy away match for Wales against Armenia.

Final standings position depend with head to head if Wales and Croatia have the same points, actually both teams have two matches left and Wales have closer forward opportunity qualify to EURO 2024 if can win all matches left. But little difficult opponent for Wales have Turkey on the last match and loss points will give advantage for Croatia if can win all their matches left.

Croatia have weakness opponent teams than Wales but its not guarantee with Croatian can take six points from two matches left against Latvia and Armenia. Wales have early match than Croatia and excited to see if success with three points will make Croatia on under pressure against Latvia before last match both teams will play on the same time.

The equation is very simple. If Wales can defeat Turkey, then there is a good chance that they will qualify. On the other hand, Croatia has better chances. But I was never expecting this group to be so tight. After Croatia's splendid performance during Qatar 2022, I was expecting them to top the group. However they are trailing at the 3rd position right now. And remember that Wales is very inexperienced squad, without Gareth Bale (he announced his retirement after the 2022 FIFA World Cup).

I'm wondering about the same match as well. As you also said Wales don't have a good history against Armenia in the qualifiers. On the other hand they are quite inconsistent as well. For example despite losing that match by 4-2 they defeated Croatia by 2-1 home in their last match. They are currently on a two-match winning streak as well.

These all look positive things for Wales maybe but I still don't believe they can be trusted easily. Armenia also still have a chance for Euro 2024 now. They would do their best as well. If Wales lose points here it would be very useful for Croatia.

I also hope that Croatia will have to perform optimally in the last 2 matches in order to qualify for the next round. I'm sure Croatia still has a chance to qualify next, indeed their opponents are very determined to appear at the German Euro later. Of course, this group will be very exciting in fighting for their team to qualify next. The reason is that Wales will go all out in the last 2 matches even though the last match was a bit tough against Turkey.

It is not right to say it is impossible because our national team, Türkiye, can achieve surprising results. We may lose against Wales, but a win against Wales is essential to ensure that we come out top of the group. We will try to fight with Montella's tactics to win. I hope we will be the winning team at the end of the day.

Croatia's situation is very difficult, but if they confidently beat Latvia and Armenia, which is quite possible, then they can score the same 16 points as Turkey and have a better goal difference. And under this condition, if Turkey loses to Wales, then they may lose first place, so Turkey will have to at least play the match with Wales to a draw. I think Croatia should make it to the playoffs, they are too strong a team to stop playing in the group stage.

In this group, Turkiye guaranteed qualification and Latvia confirmed to be out of EURO 2024, so these teams will not have much to earn and their players will not give 100% from what expected from them.
Wales will play vs Armenia then Turkiye. Croatia will play vs Latvia then Armenia. In a simple glance, we know that Armenia will decide which team will qualify between these two nations. Croatia have Latvia to face while Wales have to pass through Turkiye. I think Croatia has a golden chance to qualify and they shouldn't ruin it this time.

It’s hard to assume that you’re underestimating your opponent after they didn’t let you into the World Cup, but in any case, I’m expecting revenge from Italy, so I’ll bet with a handicap of minus a goal or even two. England was able to defeat North Macedonia at home with a score of 7-0, why shouldn’t Italy be able to repeat this with at least a score of 3-0, especially when they are as motivated as possible.

The next games that start tomorrow could be decisive games for some teams. I watch Italy play against Ukraine. In the first leg, Italy did very well, winning the game, managing to score 2 goals while the Ukrainians only managed to score 1 goal. It was a game in which Italy had greater possession, reaching 64% of possession. In this second leg, Ukraine, which has 7 games, needs to win if it wants to be lucky enough to qualify, while Italy, which has 6 points, also needs to win the game, but in the case of Italy because they have games to spare, they are not In a situation as disadvantageous as Ukraine because Italy still has more games that they can win, I'm talking about the game they will have against Macedonia, which will be a game that will take place before Italy's game against Ukraine.

another game that I think will be interesting will be Israel's game against Switzerland, in this game tomorrow Israel needs to win to have a chance of qualifying, because if they lose, then Switzerland will have an advantage of 6 points and if they also If Romania wins, they will have an 8-point advantage over Israel. In this scenario, Israel would hardly be able to qualify. That's why tomorrow's game will be decisive for Israel in my opinion. In the first leg Switzerland won the game very comfortably, it was a game in which they scored 3 goals and Israel failed to score any goals. I highly doubt that Israel will be able to win in tomorrow's game. In my opinion, this group will pass Switzerland and Romania

Yeah, but the problem for Croatia is that in that game Turkey's got nothing to play for.
They aren't really known to have German mentality, I think they won't give a shit about that result and I feel that a bet on Wales in that game might be a smart thing to do.

Crazy as it sounds - I feel that Armenia is a bigger danger to Wales than Turkey.
