Tuesday's World Cup Qualifying predictions including Wales vs. Belgium

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Tuesday's World Cup 2022 Qualifying - Europe predictions, including Wales vs. Belgium.

Still in with a shot at making the World Cup 2022 playoffs, Ukraine round off their Group D campaign away to Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday night.

The hosts fell to a 3-1 defeat against Finland on the penultimate matchday, whereas Ukraine have not been in action in qualifying since drawing with the Bosnians last month.

We say: Bosnia-Herzegovina 0-2 Ukraine


Ukraine surely cannot fathom another share of the spoils as they desperately seek to pip Finland to second place, and fans should be treated to a fired-up visiting outfit recalling some well-rested big names up top.

Bosnia will not be motivated to play for anything other than pride in front of the home faithful and will lose a good chunk of their attacking bite with Dzeko out, so we are backing Ukraine to get the job done as they pray for France to do them a favour on the same night.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Finland vs. France (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Having sealed their place at Qatar, France round off their World Cup 2022 Qualifying campaign with a clash against second-placed Finland on Tuesday night.

Didier Deschamps's side will finish at the top of the pile after hitting Kazakhstan for eight at the weekend, while their opponents are yet to assure themselves of a second-placed finish.

We say: Finland 1-2 France


Finland ought to take the fight to a France side who may take their foot off the gas slightly with qualification already assured, but some enforced alterations in defence will harm the hosts.

Kanerva's men will likely be relying on Bosnia to do them a favour against Ukraine this week, as an altered France side will also want to finish strong and should prevail in a tight contest.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Czech Republic vs. Estonia (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Czech Republic will be looking to sneak into second position in Group E, securing a World Cup 2022 qualification playoff spot in the process, when they host Estonia on Tuesday night.

The home side are currently third in the section, three points behind second-placed Wales, while Estonia are fourth, one point ahead of fifth-placed Belarus, who have played all eight of their matches.

We say: Czech Republic 2-0 Estonia


Czech Republic simply need to win on Tuesday and see where that takes them; we are expecting the hosts to triumph in routine fashion, and they will be keeping a close eye on what is happening between Wales and Belgium in Cardiff.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Wales vs. Belgium (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Wales will welcome Belgium to Cardiff on Tuesday evening knowing that a draw would be enough to secure second position in Group E ahead of the Czech Republic.

Rob Page's side have already claimed a World Cup 2022 qualification playoff spot through the UEFA Nations League but will be determined to secure second in the group to ensure that they are seeded for the semi-finals.

We say: Wales 1-1 Belgium


Wales need a point to guarantee second position in the section, and we can see Page's team, backed by a vocal home crowd, doing enough to hold Belgium to a draw. The visitors do not have an awful lot to play for on Tuesday and were far from at their best against Estonia last time out.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Gibraltar vs. Latvia (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

The bottom two teams in Group G will round off their World Cup 2022 qualification campaigns with a contest on Tuesday evening, as Gibraltar welcome Latvia to the Victoria Stadium.

Gibraltar will enter the contest off the back of a 6-0 defeat to Turkey on Saturday, while Latvia picked up a welcome point away to Norway in their last fixture on the same night.

We say: Gibraltar 0-2 Latvia


It is difficult to back Gibraltar with any real confidence, even though this is, arguably, their easiest match of the group. Latvia have proved to be difficult to overcome in their recent fixtures, and we are expecting the visitors to end their qualification campaign on a positive note.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.

Montenegro vs. Turkey (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Turkey will head to Montenegro on Tuesday night knowing that a victory would be enough for them to secure a top-two finish in their World Cup 2022 qualification section.

The visitors are currently second in Group G, level on points with third-placed Norway, while Montenegro are down in fourth and will finish in that position regardless of what happens on the final matchday.

We say: Montenegro 1-2 Turkey


Turkey will be guaranteed a top-two finish in the group if they win on Tuesday, and we are expecting the visitors to get the job done. Montenegro will have been boosted by their late draw against the Netherlands, but it was an energy-sapping affair, and Turkey's superior quality should just shine through.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Netherlands vs. Norway (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Netherlands will welcome Norway to Rotterdam on Tuesday knowing that they need to win in order to guarantee top spot in Group G and an automatic spot at the 2022 World Cup.

Holland are currently top of the section, two points clear of third-placed Norway, who can also finish first or second depending on how Turkey perform against Montenegro on the same night.

We say: Netherlands 2-1 Norway


This has all of the makings of an excellent game of football, and it will be fascinating to see how this section plays out. We are expecting this to be a tight and indeed nervy affair but believe that the home side will just have enough to secure the victory and a spot in next year's World Cup as Group G winners.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
