Belarus vs. Denmark: Match Prediction
Belarus has had a disastrous start to their World Cup qualification campaign, suffering two defeats with a total score of 1:7. Even at home, this team has struggled to achieve respectable results, losing six of their last seven home matches in European qualifiers. Moreover, the team has never kept a clean sheet in their last nine home World Cup qualifying matches, conceding a total of 19 goals during this period.
Denmark performs confidently away from home and is ready to extend their successful run: the team has won nine of their last ten away World Cup qualification matches. Furthermore, Denmark scored at least three goals in six of these encounters. In their previous away match, Brian Priske's side netted three goals against Greece.
I believe Denmark will not face significant challenges in this match, and I expect a high-scoring game. My prediction: Win for Denmark and Total over 2.5 goals
