class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In poor form in front of goal, Al Hain-Cole expects the Tartan Army to serve up another frustrating 90 minutes when they face Foda's men in Vienna

Austria and Scotland face a potentially crucial World Cup qualification clash when they meet in Vienna on Tuesday.

Steve Clarke’s men are just a single point ahead of their hosts in third position in Group F, two points adrift of an Israel team that face a difficult trip to runaway leaders Denmark.

Austria vs Scotland latest odds

Having edged past Moldova by a narrow 1-0 scoreline at the weekend, Scotland are priced at 15/4 (4.75) with bet365 to put themselves in a strong position for the second qualification spot by coming out on top at the Ernst Happel Stadion.

Austria suffered a damaging 5-2 defeat away in Israel in their last clash but are 3/4 (1.75) favourites to leapfrog their opponents with a victory here.

The sides shared a 2-2 draw when they met at Hampden Park in March’s reverse encounter, and you can get odds of 5/2 (3.50) on them cancelling each other out once again.

Austria vs Scotland team news

Julian Baumgartlinger was forced to withdraw from the squad due to a recurring knee injury, while Marcel Sabitzer is also sidelined with a groin issue.

John McGinn, Scott McTominay and Kevin Nisbet all returned to action following Covid-19 isolation in the Moldova victory, although Andrew Robertson will be assessed after coming off with a slight knock in that clash.

Austria vs Scotland preview

While their opponents’ collapse in Haifa should offer some encouragement, the Tartan Army hardly looked capable of taking advantage of such generous defending as they laboured to a 1-0 victory at home to a team ranked 175th in the world on Saturday.

Indeed, Lyndon Dykes’ goal was only his side’s second in five fixtures in all competitions, while they have hit the net just twice in six competitive matches on the road.

With so much at stake, they will most likely set themselves up defensively and hope to frustrate an opponent that has failed to score in two of their last three matches on home soil.

Austria vs Scotland predictions

All in all, odds of 3/4 (1.75) look like solid value on no more than one team getting on target for Scotland’s sixth match in seven when they take on Franco Foda’s team.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>At a low ebb and missing some big players, Al Hain-Cole expect the Boys in Green to ensure more disappointment when Stojkovic's men visit Dublin

Republic of Ireland will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome Serbia to the Aviva Stadium for Tuesday’s World Cup qualifier.

The Boys in Green are second bottom of Group A with just a single point to their name, having been held to a 1-1 draw against last-placed Azerbaijan on Saturday.

Ireland vs Serbia latest odds

Without a win in 15 competitive matches since beating Gibraltar in June 2019, Ireland are 5/2 (3.50) outsiders with bet365 to raise the spirits with a shock victory over the group leaders.

Dragan Stojkovic’s men are ahead of Portugal on goal difference after claiming 10 points from the opening four group games, and Serbia are 23/20 (2.15) favourites to come out on top against a team they beat 3-2 in March’s reverse encounter.

Three of the hosts’ last four home games have resulted in draws, and there are odds of 11/5 (3.20) available on this one also finishing up all square.

Ireland vs Serbia team news

Captain Seamus Coleman has withdrawn from the squad after suffering an ankle injury in the draw with Azerbaijan, with Cyrus Christie called up to replace him.

With no injuries or suspensions to contend with, the visitors are likely to stick with the same line-up that eased to a 4-1 win over Luxembourg at the weekend.

Ireland vs Serbia preview

Having suffered an embarrassing 1-0 defeat against Luxembourg in their first group game on home soil, Stephen Kenny’s men needed a late Shane Duffy header to avoid the same fate against an Azerbaijan team ranked 112th in the world on Saturday.

Although their blushes were partially spared, any hopes of World Cup qualification appear realistically to have been dashed even with half of the group-stage campaign still to play.

At a low ebb and missing a number of key players due to injury and Covid-19, it is hard to see them competing with an Eagles team that has scored eight times over two matches within the last week.

Ireland vs Serbia predictions

In fact, those 23/20 (2.15) odds seem generous on an in-form Serbian outfit compounding the home crowd’s misery by coming out on top for their third meeting in a row with Ireland.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>These sides played out a six-goal thriller when they met back in March and there should be plenty more goals when they face each other this week

Netherlands welcome Turkey to the Johan Cruyff Arena on Tuesday evening in what is a meeting of the top two sides in Group G of UEFA World Cup qualifying.

Senol Gunes’ team currently lead the standings, one point ahead of a Dutch outfit they beat 4-2 when they met in Istanbul in March.

With both Norway and Montenegro both still harbouring hopes of qualifying, Group G looks like being one of the competition’s most competitive, making Tuesday’s clash in Amsterdam even more important. 

Netherlands vs Turkey latest odds

Turkey have won both most recent meetings between these sides and the visitors are offered at 15/2 (8.50) with bet365 to claim three points.

Netherlands for their part have only suffered two home defeats in World Cup qualifying this century, against Portugal in 2000 and France in 2016.

The Dutch have won 23 of their last 25 home games in this tournament and are priced at 1/3 (1.33) with the draw at 17/4 (5.25).

Netherlands vs Turkey team news

Both sides avoided picking up any major injuries during their respective weekend matches although both managers are likely to make changes for the game on Tuesday.

Virgil van Dijk looks set to come back into the heart of the Dutch defence, while Cengiz Under and Okay Yokuslu are both possibilities to freshen up the Turkish midfield. 

Netherlands vs Turkey preview

Euro 2020 brought disappointment for both nations as Netherlands crashed out of the last 16 against Czech Republic, and Turkey lost all three of their group games.

The Turkish side certainly have defensive issues, letting in eight goals in three games at the European Championship, while elsewhere this year they have conceded three goals to Latvia, two goals to Montenegro and one goal to Azerbaijan.

The Dutch have plenty of firepower and will fancy their chances of scoring once more, yet Louis van Gaal’s men have also looked uninspiring at the back this year and in the last three months have conceded twice in games against Scotland, Ukraine, and Czech Republic.

This should be another high-scoring encounter and backing goals and both ends makes plenty of sense.

Netherlands vs Turkey tips & predictions

Both teams to score looks like a tempting option at 10/11 (1.91) while combining this selection with over 2.5 goals sees the price rise to 6/5 (2.20).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having found the net in the reverse encounter against the Three Lions without Lewandowski, Al Hain-Cole is backing Sousa's men to strike in Warsaw

England will be aiming to take a massive step towards World Cup qualification when they travel to Warsaw to take on Poland on Wednesday.

The Three Lions are five points clear of their hosts at the top of Group I, having won all five of their matches so far.

Poland vs England latest odds

Unbeaten in their last 17 meetings with this opposition, England are 3/5 (1.60) favourites with bet365 to put themselves within touching distance of Qatar 2022 by coming out on top at the Stadion Narodowy.

Paulo Sousa’s Poland have beaten Albania 4-1 and San Mario 7-1 within the last week but are 19/4 (5.75) outsiders to close the gap on the leaders by pulling off a shock win here.

The last meeting between the sides at this ground resulted in a 1-1 draw back in 2012, and there are odds of 11/4 (3.75) available on them cancelling each other out once again.

Poland vs England team news

Gareth Southgate is expected to revert to the team that overcame Hungary after making 11 changes for the 4-0 win over Andorra, a game which saw Tyrone Mings pick up a one-match suspension due to an accumulation of yellow cards.

Piotr Zielinski will be hoping to return after missing the last couple of matches with a minor knock, although Dawid Kownacki, Sebastian Szymanski, Kacper Kozlowski and Krzysztof Piatek have all withdrawn from the squad due to injury and Mateusz Klich is in Covid-19 isolation.

Poland vs England preview

Having missed the reverse encounter at Wembley due to injury, Robert Lewndowski’s return will offer a huge boost to a home team that have returned to the World Cup qualification campaign in prolific form.

The Bayern Munich striker provided three of the 11 goals against Hungary and San Marino, taking his recent tally to nine goals in the last eight matches for his country.

Poland vs England tips & predictions

As the only team in Group I to score against England so far, and given they have only failed to find the target against Italy over the last 17 fixtures, odds of 21/20 (2.05) seem generous on a Lewandowski-inspired Poland joining the visitors on the scoresheet for a fifth encounter in six.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>After their late 3-2 win over Belarus, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Dragons to get the better of another high-scoring clash against Haberli's men

Wales will be aiming to move into second place in Group E when they welcome Estonia to the Cardiff City Stadium for Wednesday’s World Cup qualifier.

Rob Page’s men are a point adrift of the Czech Republic with two games in hand, having edged to an exciting 3-2 victory in Belarus courtesy of a Gareth Bale hat-trick on Sunday.

Wales vs Estonia latest odds

Unbeaten in 13 fixtures on home turf, Wales are clear 1/6 (1.17) favourites with bet365 to move into the play-off spot behind runaway leaders Belgium by collecting all three points here.

Bottom of the group without a point to their name after three successive defeats, Estonia are 12/1 (13.00) outsiders to cause an upset by coming out on top or priced at 13/2 (7.50) to earn a creditable draw.

Wales vs Estonia team news

The hosts are boosted by the return of Joe Rodon from injury and Harry Wilson from suspension, although Kieffer Moore remains unavailable due to Covid-19 protocols.

Having rested a number of key players for Sunday’s 1-0 friendly defeat against Northern Ireland, Thomas Haberli is set to revert to the line-up that took the lead in a 5-2 defeat against Belgium last week.

Wales vs Estonia preview

Although they eventually escaped with a crucial three points, the Dragons were forced to work hard for victory in Belarus – coming back from 2-1 down to win 3-2 thanks to a late Bale goal.

It could be a similar story against Wednesday’s visitors, who have struck twice in each of their three qualifiers so far despite failing to claim any points.

This is down to a backline that has conceded 15 times in those three games, an ominous record for a team preparing to face an in-form Bale supplemented by Daniel James and the returning Wilson.

Wales vs Estonia tips & predictions

With Wales having failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last five competitive matches themselves, odds of 4/5 (1.80) look like decent value on them coming out on top and over 2.5 goals being scored when they face an Estonian side that have produced plenty of goalmouth action at both ends recently.
