Republic of Ireland Preview – Can Ireland pick themselves up?
Republic of Ireland suffered heartache in the play-offs in the European Championship qualifiers recently when they lost on penalties against Slovakia which ended their dreams of making it to Euro 2021, and they now have to face the leaders of Group 4 in League B of the Nations League, Wales on Sunday afternoon.
The defeat to Slovakia made it two defeats on the trot for the Irish as they’d previously lost 1-0 at home to Finland in the Nations League and indeed, they’ve managed to win just one of their last seven matches, which came in a 3-1 home win over New Zealand in a friendly last November.
Results at home though have been more encouraging for Republic of Ireland as they’ve lost just two of their last 11 matches at home in all competitions, one of which was a 1-0 loss to Wales in October 2018, while also being involved in four draws as well.
Wales Preview – Can Wales bounce back?
Wales also head into this ‘home international’ on the back of a defeat against the Republic of Ireland following a heavy 3-0 loss away from home at England, so the visitors will be eager to return to winning ways in Ireland in order to maintain their position at the top of Group 4.
The Welsh have made a bright start to this new Nations League campaign as they’ve recorded back-to-back wins against Finland (1-0 away) and Bulgaria (1-0 at home) and lead the group by a three-point margin over 2nd placed Finland prior to this weekend’s action.
Prior to defeat against England, Wales had put together an eight-match unbeaten run in all competitions but they’d managed just two wins on the road out of their last seven matches which were at Azerbaijan and Finland, so they’re by no means guaranteed all three points here.
