Lithuania - Malta

The Slovenian national team, with quite interesting football players, looks quite serious with Oblak in goal, especially at home. However, when they come up against Sweden, who have a strong attack, they look very good. I believe they would be even better than the team led by Ibra. Although the Slovenians are good, the game will revolve around the Swedes, who with such a strong attack must score and at least not lose.

Even though the Great Icelanders weakened, but recently the team started showing good results again, especially at home. It is always difficult to play against Iceland, and the fact that they recently beat Scotland away shows the strength of this team. Azerbaijan is a national team at the level of Lithuania/Latvia about which there are not many positive words, and if anything can be said, it is that they always give up control when playing away.

Italy does not seem to be shining as a golden pendant these days, as in essence it should not have any problems defeating Estonia. There is a huge difference in level between these teams, and for Italy it is also an advantage considering the group standings. Estonia concedes quite a bit, as evidenced by the unexpected goal scored by Norway, but according to statistics, it seems that the Norwegians just didn't take advantage of their chances. Against Moldova, 2 goals were scored, and against Israel, 2 and 3. Therefore, I think that even in their worst times, Italy will easily score goals, and even more so against a dry defense, which almost guarantees their victory. I predict a score of 3-0 / 4-0.

The Croatians began this cycle at a cosmic level, scoring 12 goals in 2 matches, including a 5-1 victory against a decent Czech team, showing that with this new generation and remaining veterans, they are still a top-level team. This will be a trip to face the second worst team in the group, after Gibraltar, the Faroe Islands, who have actually competed well against everyone, losing only by one goal to the Czech Republic and Montenegro. However, the Croatians are on a different level and should be able to easily handle them if they don't underestimate them.

The recovered and showing very decent results Israeli team meets with one of the weaker European teams. Jews have always had and still have a strong lineup with which they play well and successfully against such teams. Even against serious teams, the image is usually equal from the Israeli team's side, so I predict a win against Moldova and it is realistic for a period goal difference to be achieved.

Faroe Islands unexpectedly have not lost by a margin of 2 goals this year yet, and in the previous year they were only defeated twice with a margin of 2 or more goals. Clearly, our opponents were not serious, but now I think the Croatian national team should be able to handle this team. The Croatian team, known for their scoring abilities, has already shown a great performance in the first 2 rounds, scoring 12 goals, so it seems that Faroe Islands do not have much of a chance.

The Czechs here are earning the status of favorites, even on away games, their team has good players and overall, in past championships, they have shown potential to surprise. This was also evident in the game against Czech Republic where the Czechs looked much better than their opponents. Overall, the Czechs have demonstrated a very strong form until their surprising defeat to the Croatians.

The World Cup begins and these two teams. The Greeks are known as the favorites at home, while the Belarusians have never stood out with strong performances and can be considered as a strong mid-tier team. What they were known for last year in the Nations League were yellow cards, collecting an average of 2.5 per game. However, I don't expect to see much of that here as they will most likely focus on defending and stopping their opponents. The referee, Australian J. Gillett, hasn't shown too many cards in the English Premier League, but the style of play will be different here.
