Best Odds: 22/1

Bookmaker: Betfair

Wales and Estonia will face each other in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification – UEFA Group E. The match will take place at the Cardiff City Stadium in Cardiff and is scheduled to kick off at 7:45pm UK time on Wednesday.

Wales

Wales are third in Group E at the moment with six points from three matches. The Dragons are as many as seven points behind leaders Belgium and only one worse off than second-placed, the Czech Republic. Both Belgium and the Czech Republic have played five games each.

They will head into the match against Estonia on the back of a 3-2 win against Belarus. Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale scored a hat-trick in the game. It followed a narrow 1-0 win against the Czech Republic back in March.

Team News:

Ethan Ampadu, Tyler Roberts and Brandon Cooper all are available for Wales, who have also added Joe Rodon to their squad.

Estonia

Estonia are the whipping boys of the group, and there is no surprise to see them at the foot of the standings. They have picked up no point from three games.

Thomas Haberli’ side went down 6-2 to the Czech Republic in their opening group game before suffering a 4-2 loss at the hands of Belarus. Estonia lost 5-2 to Belgium last week.

Team News:

Estonia defender Joonas Tamm is doubtful for the game with an injury.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Wales have won their two previous matches against Estonia.
  • Wales have lost just one of their past 16 home qualifying matches.
  • Wales have conceded only three goals in their past 13 home games in all competitions.
  • Estonia have won one of their past 18 away qualifying matches.
  • Estonia have lost six of their seven away World Cup and Euro qualifiers against England, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Conclusion

Wales should win big against Estonia. It is hard to see the visiting team even score a goal.

Prediction: Wales to win 5-0

Best Odds: 22/1
