In this feature, we’ll dive into XpertStats’ insights and World Cup Predictions that might just shape your weekend betting strategy.
- Wales host Belgium at Cardiff City Stadium in a decisive World Cup 2026 qualifier on Monday.
- The Dragons trail the Red Devils by just one point in Group J standings.
- Craig Bellamy’s side aims to recover from back-to-back defeats, including a heavy 3-0 loss to England.
- Belgium were held goalless by North Macedonia despite dominating in attack.
Wales come into this one on shaky ground after a bruising 3-0 defeat to England. It’s been a tough spell for Craig Bellamy, who started strong but has now seen his team lose three of their last four. The Welsh have shown fight at home though, unbeaten in nine competitive games in Cardiff and scoring 11 times in their last four there. Still, their tendency to concede early could haunt them again. Can Bellamy’s men rediscover that fiery, fearless energy that once made them so hard to beat?
For Belgium, frustration was the word after their goalless draw with North Macedonia. Rudi Garcia’s side produced 20 shots and over three expected goals but somehow failed to score. That’s not typical of this team, they’d netted 17 goals in their previous five qualifiers. With De Bruyne pulling the strings and Doku’s pace always threatening, the Red Devils are unlikely to stay quiet two games in a row. Even so, their away form is a concern, with just one win from their last ten on the road. That’s a stat that might give Wales a glimmer of hope.
Looking at the reverse fixture, a chaotic 4-3 win for Belgium back in June, it’s hard not to expect drama again. De Bruyne’s late winner saved his side after they had nearly thrown away a three-goal lead. Both teams have proven they can score and concede in equal measure. The crowd in Cardiff will demand a response, and with players like Brennan Johnson and Harry Wilson eager to impress, Wales won’t sit back this time.
Ultimately, this clash feels finely poised. One point separates the two sides, both desperate, both flawed. Maybe that’s why it’s so compelling. A draw wouldn’t surprise anyone, but goals? That feels almost guaranteed. Expect a passionate, open battle that could swing either way. For punters, this might just be the perfect setup for World Cup Predictions involving both teams finding the net.
Both sides come into this fixture needing points, and that urgency usually breeds goals. Wales have scored in each of their last nine competitive home games, averaging nearly three per match. Their defense, however, remains fragile, conceding seven first-half goals in their last four outings. Belgium, for all their attacking talent, also struggle away from home, just one win in ten and multiple clean sheets lost. Kevin De Bruyne’s creativity and Doku’s speed almost guarantee scoring chances, but the Red Devils often leave gaps at the back. Given how Wales thrive in front of their Cardiff supporters and Belgium’s open, attacking setup, this has all the ingredients for a high-tempo, end-to-end clash. A 2-2 draw wouldn’t shock anyone. Both teams are likely to score, not just because of stats, but because of the sheer stakes and the emotional tension surrounding this qualifier.
