Romelu Lukaku scored within a few minutes of coming on against Turkiye in September. The veteran striker is on 94 goals for Belgium and plays his club football in Turkiye, so should be a major goalscoring threat in Izmir.

Gordon has scored in his last four games for England, recording a goal and an assist in the win over Croatia last month.

Kylian Mbappe has scored 11 goals in his last nine appearances for Les Bleus and is desperate to impress new boss Zidane.

Both teams have scored with at least three goals in three of Turkiye’s last five games and also in five of Belgium’s last eight matches. With a draw doing no real good for either nation’s hopes of the semi-finals or avoiding relegation, an open affair with goals at both ends is anticipated.

Both teams have scored in four of Armenia’s five home matches in 2026, and they host a Cyprus side that has conceded in 13 of their last 17 internationals. The visitors have both created and conceded plenty of chances in this campaign, so back both teams to score.

Turkey have lost all four Nations League ties and shipped three without reply when they met Belgium just over a month ago. They have conceded 11 goals in this run, while the Red Devils also beat Italy in the season’s first international break.

Czechia have conceded ten goals across four UEFA Nations League ties and were 3-1 losers in Oviedo at the start of October. Three of their four games have gone over 2.5 goals, while Spain’s four games have produced a total of 17 goals.

North Macedonia are yet to find the net after four UEFA Nations League ties and they have managed just one shot on target across this period. They lost 2-0 to Scotland in Skopje and each of the Tartan Army’s last three wins has been to nil.

Both teams have scored in all four of the Netherlands’ Nations League games, including a 2-2 thriller away to Greece last month. Greece did follow that with a goalless draw against Germany, but they found the net in all three Nations League games prior to that.

Iceland were deserved 3-0 winners over Bulgaria when they met in Reykjavik last month and they look good value to inflict a third Nations League defeat on their hosts on Friday. Bulgaria lost at home to Luxembourg in September and the favourites have taken eight points from a possible 12 this campaign.

Cheltenham may be up in fifth in the League Two standings but they have just one point from their last four away games and may fall foul of an Exeter side in excellent form. The Grecians have won three of their last four matches and are yet to lose at home this season, so back them for the points.

Just one point separates these two sides in the lower reaches of the League One table but it is 19th-placed Blackpool in the better form. They have lost just one of their last five, while the Dons’ winless run was extended to ten games in their 2-1 loss at Crewe.

Sheffield Wednesday are 6/5 favourites on Saturday afternoon but their extra-time defeat to Sheffield Wednesday in the weekend’s FA Cup tie left them without a win in five attempts. They have dropped points in four of their last five home league games and Plymouth have only lost one of their last six away fixtures.

Stockport are on the charge in League One and can live up to their favouritism against Reading on Saturday. The Hatters have won their last four home games by an aggregate scoreline of 7-2 and come up against a Reading side without a goal in their last three away days in the third tier.

Wigan are slowly recovering from a dreadful start to the season and, with two wins and a draw from their last three games, they can build up some momentum against the poor-travelling Barnsley. The Tykes have lost their last four away games and conceded 11 goals in the process and their last win on the road came in August.

England can beat Croatia for the third time this year, but the visitors are backed to get on the scoresheet. Slaven Bilic’s side have lost seven of their last 11 games, but they’ve only failed to score twice in their last 15 matches. One of those defeats, last month’s 7-0 home defeat to England, saw Croatia generate 1.39 xG.

France have won their last five away games, including three wins against higher-ranked nations than Italy while Italy have lost three of their last four Nations League home games. France have won on their last three trips to Italy and can do so again. Les Bleus beat a strong Belgium side 4-1 in their last game in their best display since Zidane took charge and they can cover a -1 handicap in Italy.

Spain have won 17 of their last 22 games, but they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in 11 of their last 15 Nations League matches. Czechia have scored in eight of their last 10 at home, but they’ve suffered six defeats in seven.

Albania have won three of their four games in the Nations League this term, and they created more chances with ten men than Finland in the reverse fixture last month.

Montenegro are on a six-game unbeaten run, with four wins, and they should be able to overcome Latvia with relative ease. The visitors are winless in six (D2, L4) and have drawn blanks in two of their four group games. Montenegro kept a clean sheet against Armenia last time out and can beat Latvia without conceding.

France have won their last five away games, including three wins against higher-ranked nations than Italy while Italy have lost three of their last four Nations League home games. France have won on their last three trips to Italy and can do so again.

Spain have won 17 of their last 22 games, but they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in 11 of their last 15 Nations League matches. Czechia have scored in eight of their last 10 at home, so back goals at both ends.

Albania have won three of their four games in the Nations League this term, and they created more chances with ten men than Finland in the reverse fixture last month.

England hit seven when they last faced Croatia and can reach at least three in Thursday’s meeting. England have scored 14 times in the Nations League, and they can boost that tally against a struggling Croatian defence.

Montenegro have scored at least twice in four of their last five games, including a 2-1 win in Latvia.

England have scored 14 times in the Nations League, and they can boost that tally against a struggling Croatian defence. The visitors are backed for a consolation goal, so back a 4-1 victory for the Three Lions.

France have scored multiple goals in away games against Brazil and Colombia this year, albeit they were friendlies before Zidane took over. But they have enough quality to bag a couple of goals against an Italian defence that has not kept a clean sheet in their last nine attempts against a top 20-ranked nation. France can win 2-0 in clinical fashion.

England can beat Croatia for the third time this year, but the visitors are backed to get on the scoresheet. Slaven Bilic’s side have lost seven of their last 11 games, but they’ve only failed to score twice in their last 15 matches. One of those defeats, last month’s 7-0 home defeat to England, saw Croatia generate 1.39 xG.

Spain have won 17 of their last 22 games, but they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in 11 of their last 15 Nations League matches. Czechia have scored in eight of their last 10 at home, but they’ve suffered six defeats in seven.

San Marino have lost seven of their eight games in 2026, but they’ve scored in four of those defeats. The hosts were able to record 0.96 Expected Goals in the reverse fixture, which accounts for almost half of their xG in this campaign. Belarus have faced 4.3 xG in four matches, and they could concede in a victory.

France have won their last five away games, including three wins against higher-ranked nations than Italy while Italy have lost three of their last four Nations League home games. France have won on their last three trips to Italy and can do so again.
