Hungary have lost only one of seven matches in 2026, and that was a home loss to Ukraine in which they created the better chances. The Hungarians have the best underlying record in the group, while Ukraine have the worst.

Sweden have taken seven points from their three games during this international break, and they’re backed to add to that win a win over a struggling Romania side. The hosts have suffered five defeats in seven matches this year, but they can get on the scoresheet against a Swedish side that has conceded in their last 16 matches.

Montenegro have won and conceded in all three matches in this international break, including a 3-2 victory in Armenia. Eight of the hosts’ last 10 matches have seen both teams score, while Armenia have found the net in six of their last seven internationals.

Northern Ireland have seven points from three games and are yet to concede in the Nations League. They won 1-0 in Georgia in the first meeting and with home advantage should be able to back that up with another three points on Monday.

Cordoba have seen both teams score in six of their seven matches this season, conceding 16 times across those matches. They host a Tenerife side that has conceded in each of their away trips so far, and they drew 1-1 at home to Cadiz last week.

Both teams have scored in eight of Bosnia-Herzegovina’s 11 matches this year, while 16 of their last 22 outings have finished with both teams finding the net. Poland have lost 3-1 in Sweden and won 6-0 against Romania across their last two games, while six of their last nine have also featured both teams scoring.

Turkiye’s last two losses have come via three-goal margins but they may be capable of a slight improvement on that on Monday. Italy are yet to keep a clean sheet in the Nations League so the visitors can at least get on the scoresheet.

Romania have suffered five defeats in seven matches this year, but they can get on the scoresheet against a Swedish side that has conceded in their last 18 matches.

Northern Ireland have seven points from three games and are yet to concede in the Nations League. They won 1-0 in Georgia in the first meeting and with home advantage should be able to back that up with another three points on Monday.

Midfielder Davide Frattesi has three goals in five Serie A appearances for Lazio this season and was on target in the reverse fixture in Bursa. Frattesi stands out as a contender for an anytime effort on Monday.

After a difficult start to the season with Arsenal, Viktor Gyokeres has been in stellar form for his country. He’s scored in all three games for Sweden during this break, taking his tally to nine goals for his nation in 2026 alone.

Italy crushed Turkiye 4-1 in Bursa last week and can win with room to spare once again when the two sides meet again in Bologna on Monday.

France won 1-0 when these sides met in Brussels last week, their sixth consecutive victory over Belgium. Les Bleus have seven points from three games and they can ease to another win.

Northern Ireland won the first meeting 1-0 and can win without conceding again as Georgia are yet to score after three games in the Nations League.

France won 1-0 when these sides met in Brussels last week, their sixth consecutive victory over Belgium. Les Bleus have seven points from three games and have conceded just one goal so they can win to nil on Monday.

Hungary scored twice in five of their six World Cup qualifiers last year, and the 4.6 xG they’ve generated across their three Nations League matches is the highest in this group. Ukraine’s last two ‘home’ competitive games have seen them concede three goals apiece to Northern Ireland and Sweden.

Italy crushed Turkiye 4-1 in Bursa last week and can win with room to spare once again when the two sides meet again in Bologna on Monday. That was Turkey’s second three-goal defeat in a row, but they meet an Italian side that has conceded 6.8 xG across three Nations League matches.

Montenegro have scored twice or more in four straight games, including a 3-2 victory in Armenia. The visitors were beaten 2-0 in Cyprus in their last match, and the home side are backed to score a couple of goals as they round out a fourth win from four in this break.

A France win is expected but this game could be fairly close. Under 2.5 goals has landed in all three of France’s Nations League games, while Belgium have only suffered two defeats in their last 22 games and both of those losses have come via one-goal margins.

Sweden have taken seven points from their three games during this international break, and they’re backed to add to that win a win over a struggling Romania side. The hosts have suffered five defeats in seven matches this year, but they can get on the scoresheet against a Swedish side that has conceded in their last 16 matches.

Romania hit a new low in their 6-0 loss to Poland last time out, and they could concede a few goals in this defeat after a 4-2 drubbing at the hands of Bosnia in their last home match. Sweden have conceded exactly once in four of their last five matches.

Nine of Bosnia’s last 15 matches have finished level, and six of those nine have finished 1-1. Poland have claimed two wins in 2026, and both of those have come at home.

Lamine Yamal has been a sensation so far this season and made it four goals from three games for Spain against the Czech Republic. He has scored in eight of his last nine for club and country, netting 12 times in total in this period, and faces a Croatia side that were demolished by England last time out.

Borussia Dortmund are on a six-game winning streak which has seen them average 2.83 goals per game and they should fill their boots against a Werder Bremen side that were thrashed 4-1 at Freiburg earlier this season.

Lens are favourites for the points on Friday but they sit 15th in the Ligue 1 table with just four points from five games. They have lost three times, including to Lorient in their last home outing, while Lyon are challenging at the top of the table and head to Lens unbeaten in five.

Swansea are top of the Championship standings and look good value for a third successive win against Norwich. The Canaries are on a three-game losing streak and the Swans have won their last three home meetings with them.

Aston Villa may have ended their winless start to the Premier League season, but they have been torrid at times this season and face a Brentford side that took themselves into the top four with a 3-0 battering of Chelsea last time out. Back the Bees to emerge victorious at Villa Park.

Doncaster’s home fans are yet to celebrate a win this season and their first success of the season last time out came against the struggling Peterborough, while Burton have won two of their four league away games.

York City possess League Two’s best home record of the season, scoring 12 goals en route to four wins from four. They should be backed for another win against Northampton, who are 22nd in the standings and have lost three of their four competitive away games.

Monza’s Serie A games this season have averaged four goals per game and another high-scoring affair is expected in Rome, with Lazio having seen at least three goals in two of their last three Serie A fixtures.

Bologna have had a terrible start to the season and find themselves 18th after the opening five games. They are yet to taste victory and hosts Lecce beat Monza 3-2 in their last home fixture, while they are unbeaten in their last three home meetings with I Rossoblu.

Deportivo La Coruna have enjoyed a fantastic return to La Liga and head to San Sebastian having lost just one of their seven games. They have taken five points from three away games and their hosts on Sunday have only won one of their four competitive home fixtures.

Monaco have spent the last couple of seasons in the Champions League, losing 5-4 on aggregate to PSG in last season’s knockouts.

They’ve appointed former Flamengo boss Filipe Luiz as their new manager, and the former Chelsea defender has an impressive track record. He led the Brazilian side to their domestic title, and brought continental success in the Copa Libertadores.

Strasbourg reached the last four of the Conference League last term, and this Monaco side are capable of going even further under a highly-rated young manager.

City aren’t quite right yet under Enzo Maresca. They may well come good but Lens away was arguably the worst road trip from Pot 4 while Napoli and Leipzig represent stern tests from Pot 3. And then there’s PSG and Barcelona. Altogether a tough test.

The home game against Bodo/Glimt and trip to Slavia ought to be the bedrock of a campaign in which Dino Toppmoller’s impressive group – who have already beaten PSG in the French Champions Trophy – can emerge successfully.

Barcelona could easily lose in Paris, legitimately drop points at Galatasaray and at home to Man City. One more slip and the top eight could feasibly elude them.

Arsenal were flawless 12 months ago and should have no difficulty getting to the 16 points which are probably required.

BVB came close to the top eight last season and have a great draw this year with Betis, AEK Athens, Sabah and even Inter Milan at home looks winnable.

PSV’s hammerings of Napoli and Liverpool last term were rare highs in an otherwise disappointing campaign. This season’s draw looks far kindlier for Peter Bosz and his Eredivisie big-hitters.
