Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the World Cup qualifying match.
Belgium need to chase down Wales and North Macedonia, who have moved ahead in the race for World Cup places. The squad should deal with the underdog comfortably, which would help them close the gap on their rivals.
Liechtenstein
Liechtenstein, meanwhile, are left to fight simply to keep the score down. They have already conceded eight goals across three qualifiers. Wales and North Macedonia each scored three without reply against them. Liechtenstein’s most recent match ended in a 4:0 home defeat to Scotland in a friendly.
Belgium
Belgium have, in essence, never faltered against smaller national teams such as Liechtenstein. These fixtures have been rare, and Belgium have routinely routed such opponents, as they did San Marino in 2019 (4:0, 9:0). The most recent comparable opponent was a slightly improved Luxembourg last summer, yet they still suffered a heavy defeat to Belgium (3:0).
Liechtenstein vs Belgium Prediction
We are confident that, whatever line-up Belgium select against the underdog, they will win decisively. We will add Total Over 4.5 goals to Belgium’s win over Liechtenstein.
