Mon, 15/11/2021 - 04:22

Another week comes and so does another round of FIFA World Cup European Qualifiers! What are you waiting for? Join Bingsport now to stream FIFA World Cup European Qualifiers matches!

The European division of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification is reaching to the end with the first ticket determined its owner and some other candidates are very near to the next ones. With this state of affairs, some must try hard to land Qatar next year.

1. Armenia vs Germany

Die Mannschaft is the first team to pass the Qualifiers with an impressive winning streak. On the other hand, Armenia is ranking 4th with only 12 points and surely will come back home.

The much changed line-up due to Covid and injuries in the previous match versus Liechtenstein yet brought them 9 kick-off times. It seems that new combinations will be shown again by coach Hansi Flick in this match to be ready for future cases.

Having Sargis Adamyan, Taron Voskanyan and Varazdat Haroyan recovered for this match, Armenia will have to fight hard if they don’t want to finish their campaign against Germany.

Prediction: Armenia 0-5 Germany

2. Spain vs Sweden

Stepping one foot to the Finals doesn’t mean that Spain can be home and dry now, especially when they are facing Sweden team, who must win if they want to enter the finals.

Ansu Fati, Yeremi Pino, and Eric Garcia have all been forced to withdraw from Spain's team due to injuries. La Furia Roja shall avoid defeat to secure top spot.

Although Sweden came from behind to beat Spain 2-1, this upcoming encounter is probably different when it’s Spain’s home match and Blågult just had a shock defeat to Georgia.

Prediction: Spain 1-0 Sweden

3. Portugal vs Serbia

Portugal with last draw leapfrogged Serbia with only the Goal difference. The Portuguese cannot afford to lose since they will be required to engage in the playoffs.

Selecao must improve their goalscoring possibility yet not depend on only Cris as current. Besides, Pepe is also missed because of the last match’s red card.

Serbia are now unbeaten in their last six matches and their latest mission is to beat the Portuguese in their own backyard to confirm an impressive World Cup qualification. Serbia has two in-form attackers in Dusan Vlahovic and Aleksandar Mitrovic entering into this weekend's crucial qualifier with Portugal.

Prediction: Portugal 1-1 Serbia

4. San Marino vs England

Under the same situation with Spain and Portugal but the mission of The Three Lions may be easier than the aforementioned two because their opponent is San Marino but not hungry Sweden or Serbia.

San Marino will be hoping for a better result following the 4-0 WC Qualifiers - Europe defeat in their last game at the hands of Hungary. In contrast, England will go into the meeting after a 5-0 win vs Albania in their last game. It’s not hard to think that England should dominate possession and create several successful chances to entertain their fans at Wembley with a nice victory.

Prediction: San Marino 1-3 England

5. Northern Ireland vs Italy

People all agree that group C’s picture has become unpredictable after the draw between Italy and Switzerland - the two squads are sharing the top two places with the same points.

Northern Ireland couldn’t win in the last clash featuring Italy. Being considered the underdog in this game, Northern Ireland is perhaps not a menace to the guest Italy.

Immobile left the Italy camp before the match with Switzerland after medical tests revealed a muscular injury to his left leg. Besides, Captain Giorgio Chiellini’s absence will leave Roberto Mancini a headache because Azzurri can’t dismount now.

Prediction: Northern Ireland 0-2 Italy
