National League leaders Boreham Wood have won eight of their 10 matches this season, and they’ve put together a three-game winning streak at home. However, they’ve conceded in each of their home matches so far.

Luxembourg have won four of their five matches this year, including victories in Albania and Bulgaria in their previous two matches. Iceland are winless in seven, and they were beaten 3-1 in Luxembourg in 2023.

The Swiss have won 13 of their last 20 matches, and they should prove too strong for a Scotland side that made a meek World Cup exit. However, BTTS has landed in the hosts’ last four competitive games at Hampden, and in nine of Switzerland’s last 13 outings.

Southend are second in the National League, but they fell to a 4-2 home defeat to Barrow last weekend. They’ve been happy to try to outscore opponents all season, with both teams scoring in nine of their last 10 matches.

Wales have lost their opening two games of this international break without scoring, with injury issues hampering Craig Bellamy’s side. Norway suffered a 2-1 home defeat against Portugal on Sunday, but they created the majority of chances. They face an easier test in Cardiff, and they should be able to return to winning ways.

Austria claimed 3-1 wins over Israel and Kosovo in Vienna, and they look like the strongest side in this Nations League group by a distance. The visitors have scored three times in four of their previous six matches, and they should prove too strong for this Irish side.

After snapping their winless run with a victory over Real Salt Lake, the Seattle Sounders claimed a 3-1 victory over Minnesota United last weekend. Sporting KC have lost 17 of their 26 matches this term, and they’ve conceded three or more in eight of their 10 away defeats.

Bohemians have won four straight matches to move within a point of top spot in the League of Ireland. Dundalk have lost four of their last six league games, and they’ve suffered three straight defeats at home. The Bohs have won nine of 15 away trips this season, including a 3-1 victory at Dundalk.

Albacete’s loss at Girona on Friday was their sixth in seven matches this season. Albacete have lost all three home matches so far, while they were beaten 3-0 in this fixture back in April. Eibar have made a perfect start on their travels this term with three wins, and they can ease to another victory on Saturday afternoon.

Grimsby Town are in the playoff spots largely due to their home form, having picked up three wins from four in League Two this season. They host a Shrewsbury side that has lost at Tranmere, Fleetwood and Rochdale without scoring.

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.

Ukraine have won three straight games, and they’ve picked up six wins from their last eight internationals. The visitors have won eight of 16 Nations League matches at this level, and they play a Georgia side that just suffered a sixth defeat in seven competitive games.

Armenia lost eight of their 10 matches in 2025, and they started 2026 with a home defeat to Belarus. The hosts fell to home defeats to North Macedonia and the Faroe Islands in the last Nations League campaign, while Montenegro have won five of their last eight internationals.

These sides played out a 1-1 draw the last time they met in Northern Ireland and Hungary have played out two score draws in their last three away games, while they found the net in all three of their away qualifiers last year.

Sweden picked up a crucial win on Friday, but they haven’t kept a home clean sheet since November 2024. They are unbeaten in four home games following their 2-1 success over Romania, while Poland are winless in four, which includes a 3-2 loss to Sweden in March.

Leganes have made a solid start, but their underlying record is one of the worst in the division. They head to leaders Castellon, who have won five of their first six matches, including each of their first three trips. The visitors also have the best xG record in Spain’s second tier.

Sweden picked up a crucial win on Friday, but they haven’t kept a home clean sheet since November 2024, and goals are expected against a Poland side that have seen both teams score in five of their last six away games, including a 3-2 defeat in Sweden in March.

Romania have been excellent at home lately but they have conceded in four of their last five here, while both teams have scored in five of their last seven home and away, while there have been goals at both ends in five of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s last six away matches.

Turkiye’s eight competitive matches last year saw over 2.5 goals land on seven occasions, while Italy scored 21 times across eight World Cup qualifiers in 2025. The two sides created chances despite losing their Nations League openers without scoring, and their respective defensive concerns should lead to a high-scoring clash.

France beat Turkey on the road in their first game under Zinedine Zidane, but they conceded chances in that 1-0 win. Belgium lost five of eight matches in the last Nations League campaign, including home and away defeats to France. The French have won the last five contests between the two sides, conceding in away Nations League victories in 2021 and 2024.

These sides played out a 1-1 draw the last time they met in Northern Ireland and Hungary have played out two score draws in their last three away games, while they found the net in all three of their away qualifiers last year.

Italy scored 21 times across eight World Cup qualifiers in 2025, and their Expected Goals tally of 1.7 against Belgium suggests they can improve going forward after losing that game 2-0. Turkiye are missing their goalkeeper through suspension, but they have enough attacking talent to get on the scoresheet.

France beat Turkey on the road in their first game under Zinedine Zidane, but they conceded chances in that 1-0 win. Belgium lost five of eight matches in the last Nations League campaign, including home and away defeats to France. The French have won the last five contests between the two sides, conceding in away Nations League victories in 2021 and 2024.

Seven of Viktor Gyokeres’ international goals have been scored in eight appearances in 2026 and one of these was in a 3-2 win over Poland in March.

Kean recorded 0.52 xG in the loss to Belgium, and the forward went into that game having scored in his last seven starts for Italy. He found the net in both of their World Cup playoff matches in March, and the forward can add to that in this trip.

Sweden are unbeaten in four home games and beat Romania 2-1 on Friday. They have scored exactly two goals in their last two home games and Poland have scored exactly once in three of their last six on the road.

Belgium shared 40 shots in their win in Italy, with the two sides combining for 4.46 Expected Goals. The Red Devils have lost 3-2 and 2-1 at home to France in this competition since 2021, and they can edge this contest once again.

Romania have been excellent at home lately but they have conceded in four of their last five here, while both teams have scored in five of their last seven home and away, while there have been goals at both ends in five of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s last six away matches.
