Matchday 4 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers between Kazakhstan and North Macedonia will take place on June 9 at Astana Arena. Kazakhstan vs. North Macedonia: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Kazakhstan

Ali Aliyev's team started the qualifying campaign with a defeat, losing 1-3 to Wales. In the next match, they managed to defeat Liechtenstein 2-0, breaking their four-match losing streak in World Cup qualifiers. Kazakhstan is now preparing for their first home match in the current tournament, but their home record in World Cup qualifiers leaves much to be desired, as they have not won in their last 10 home qualifiers (4 draws, 6 losses).

• At least one team failed to score in 5 of Kazakhstan's last 7 World Cup qualifying matches.
• Kazakhstan failed to score in 4 of their last 6 home matches in World Cup qualifiers.
• Kazakhstan conceded at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 7 World Cup qualifying matches.
