Kosovo - Sweden

We can boldly state that Portugal currently has one of the best football teams, and one of the favorites to win the World Cup. However, we still need to qualify and handle further matters. The upcoming match against Hungary will be a fight for first place in the group, and Portugal has shown a high level of motivation in their recent matches, with even Felix's return to form in the game against Saudi Arabia. Ronaldo continues to score and lead the team to victories, and their 5-0 win against Peru shows their strength. Hungary will be a tough opponent, but not one that Portugal cannot overcome, especially with their current form. This is evident in Ghana's recent losses of 3-0 and 3-1 to Hungary, as well as their 4-0 loss to the Netherlands and 0-2 loss to Sweden in recent periods.

Cards seem like a solid choice, Cyprus will not compete for the Top 2 spots in the group, but they could definitely disrupt the mood of the 3 teams that will compete for those spots, for example, Romania. So far, Bosnia dominates in group 4/4, but they have not played against favorites Austrians yet, who should bring them down to Earth and almost equalize them with the Top 3 teams in points. In the first match, Romanian referee Rumsas showed a lot of cards, finishing with 3, but there was also home team advantage, with a 2-0 score after the first period and the match was finished that way. The situation will be different for Cyprus, as they will have home field advantage and it will be harder for Romania, also the referee, Slovenian Matej Jug, who is not afraid to give out cards, is much better.

Possible these two teams will compete for the 1st place in the group, so we can expect tough competition as neither has suffered a loss yet. Bosnia won 4 out of 4 games, while Austria won 3 out of 3, making this their first match against each other. Both teams have strong corner statistics, as they both like to attack through the flanks, leading to more corner kicks. The total corners for the match show that we can expect at least 9 corners from both teams, with Bosnia's total set at over 3.5 at a coefficient of 1.80, and under at 1.90. Austria's total is set at over 4.5 at 1.66 coefficient, and under at 2.10 coefficient.

Hungary suffered a painful defeat in the first qualifying match when they let slip a 2-0 lead. Meanwhile, Portugal had an easy walkover against Armenia, scoring 5 goals. I do not expect Hungary to have such an easy time, and they have shown positivity after the first match. At home, they could pose a threat to Portugal.

Although the English don't show a championship-worthy level in their football, they have a strong team, and the Serbians don't play well either. The Serbians fought hard against Peru and Latvia, where the game was far from beautiful, and now I believe the English need to show their ability. Tuchel's seat is hot, and the results have to be good because there are options to replace him, and Peru will once again silence everyone.

Ukraine was not the most favorable opponent for the goal-scoring French, but the Icelanders seem much more favorable, as their team has quite a few defensive problems. In 2 matches with Kosovo, Iceland conceded 5 goals, even with such defensive-minded teams like Wales scoring 5 goals against them. With the added motivation of playing at home, a stronger team lineup, and an incredible attacking potential, the French should have no problem.

Ukraine was not the most favorable opponent for French high-scoring football, but Iceland seems to be much more favorable, as their team has quite a few defensive issues. In their 2 matches against Kosovo, Iceland allowed 5 goals, even conceding 5 goals from a defensive Wales. At home, the French have enough additional motivation, a stronger squad, and an incredible attacking potential.

The Austrians didn't show complete dominance against Cyprus, but 3 points are 3 points. An away game awaits and a definitely beatable opponent, who lacks a solid defense, so there should be plenty of opportunities for the Austrians and their attack. Bosnia is a direct opponent for securing a spot in the World Cup, so the mindset here is at its maximum.

Two teams with hot temperaments meet. The hosts, Romania, won the meeting with a score of 2-0. So now Cyprus will at least try to prove something in their own arena. Especially since the Romanians are the closest opponents in the group. The referee is Slovenian M. Jug.

The Latvians are strong defenders, know how to defend themselves and often do not allow their opponents to get carried away, but their problem is that they cannot attack. The Albanians are of hot temperament, still holding onto hope of advancing, lost points in Riga, so now there is only one goal: Peru. The referee, D. Sylwestrzak, who was in charge of one match in the group stage, showed 4 yellow cards.
