• Armenia have failed to score in three of their four qualifiers.

Hungary on verge of play-off spot

Hungary could potentially guarantee second place in World Cup qualifying Group F on Thursday with a victory in Armenia, depending on how Republic of Ireland fare in a later kick off against Portugal.

Hungary are in a strong position and they have a chance to put pressure on their rivals due to the fact their game takes place earlier, and it is an opportunity they are unlikely to pass up.

Armenia aren’t completely out of the running themselves but they have been generally poor during qualification. They do have three points on the board thanks to a win over the Irish, but they have lost all of their other games without scoring and that is their only win in their last eight games – losing six of those.

Hungary have two wins and just one loss in their last five games and they look capable of winning fairly comfortably in Yerevan.

Another option could be to back Hungary to win to nil due to Armenia’s struggles in front of goal during qualification. The hosts have failed to score in four of their last five home games across all fixtures, and that is reflected in a correct score prediction of 2-0 to Hungary – a repeat of the Magyars’ win in the reverse fixture.
