Wales News and Form – Can Wales secure a win over Hungary?

The good thing for Wales is that they do have home advantage in this crucial game against the team which they need to beat to get to Euro 2020. So it’s all in their own hands. Wales earned a 2-0 win in Azerbaijan on Saturday to set themselves up for this showdown. That was a must-win game as well for the Welsh and put in a good, composed performance. Wales have beaten Slovakia and Azerbaijan at home in this campaign, while they drew against Croatia.

22bet

It has only been 8 goals in their 7 qualification matches that Wales have nailed. That’s the same number as Hungary have managed. This, therefore, probably isn’t going to be a high-scoring game. Wales are unbeaten in five games since their 1-0 loss in Hungary during this campaign. It is also a five-match undefeated streak of form that they are on at home as well (competitive and friendly) winning four of those.

The Welsh played out a 1-1 draw against Croatia in their last home qualifiers. It is an eight-match scoring streak at home that the Welsh are currently on. They have a very strong home record going in European Championship qualifiers. They are unbeaten in their last ten such fixtures, winning seven such fixtures. So the home form from the Welsh is certainly there. Can they rise to the occasion?

Hungary News and Form – Can Hungary secure qualification by beating Wales?

Hungary are almost in the same boat as well. A win will guarantee they go to Euro 2020. If they lose they will be heading to the playoffs. But if they draw, that could be enough for them to squeeze through, but only if Slovakia don’t beat Azerbaijan on the night. Unfortunately for Hungary, Slovakia probably will win that game. So the Hungarian realistically are looking at needing a win in Cardiff. That won’t be easy as they have lost at Croatia and Slovakia in this group, failing to score in their defeat.

Their one away win was a 3-1 success in Azerbaijan. Hungary are just not in any kind of form at the moment which is great news for Wales. They lost a home qualifier against Uruguay on the weekend which was their fourth defeat in their last five fixtures. Out on the road, Hungary have a poor run of form going. They have lost six of their last nine road games (competitive and friendly). They have failed to score in four of their last six competitive road fixtures.

Wales vs Hungary Predictions

Wales to win: Both are in a tough spot and Hungary know that a point may not be enough to get them their goal of automatic qualification. But do they have enough to beat Wales in Cardiff? Probably not. The Welsh can, cheered on by home support, get a home success to nil.
