607 days. That’s how long we have to wait until the controversial 2022 World Cup begins in Qatar. Scheduled to kick-off on November 11 2022, the road to glory begins for European nations on Wednesday as 24 teams get their qualifying campaigns under way.
Wales and Republic of Ireland face difficult starts with trips to Belgium and Serbia respectively.
On paper the Welsh couldn’t have it much tougher against the team ranked 1st in the world and that’s reflected in their 12/1 odds to begin with a win. Roberto Martinez’s star-studded side are just 1/3 to take the three points. SlipsTips has found a couple of angles to get onside with the Belgians in his match preview.
Ireland need to snap out of a run that’s seen them score just once in their last eight outings. Pressure is mounting on gaffer Stephen Kenny and expectations will be low that they can come away from Belgrade with all three points. KevMac plays it with the stats in his match preview, backing the Serbs to keep a clean sheet at 9/10.
Elsewhere France and Ukraine could be an interesting one. The French trounced Ukraine 7-1 in a Paris friendly last year and it could be another high-scoring affair with the likes of Mbappe, Coman, Martial, Griezmann and Giroud able to be called upon by Didier Descamps.
Mbappe is in Mark Walker’s sights for the match at the Stade de France as the 22-year old embarks on his quest to lead France to defend their world crown.
