Our Predictions
Wales looks more likely to nick this, especially given their recent away form and tight defense. Odds of 1.48 suggest the bookies see them as clear favorites. Expect a cautious game, so no goals from both teams are most probable, with a low-scoring, narrow win for Wales.
A draw feels quite realistic here given the past 5 meetings and similar recent form. The odds of 3.90 for a draw indicate a close contest. Both teams have enough attacking threat to score, possibly leading to a modest 1-1 or 2-2 draw, even if the scorers don’t go over 2.5 goals.
Although recent games were tight, Wales’ attacking options could unlock Kazakhstan’s defense for a couple of goals. Odds suggest Wales might just do enough to win and score, making the over 2.5 goals prediction plausible in a game where they press for that extra goal to secure the win.
Wales has enough firepower to find the net, especially considering their frequent goal involvement in recent away matches. Combining this with the over 2.5 goals scenario makes sense, as both teams could contribute to a lively, if tight, affair.
Both teams tend to keep it tight, and the odds of a low-scoring draw make this a sensible choice. The risk here is that neither side breaks the deadlock, resulting in a 0-0 or 1-1 scenario, fitting for a cautious qualifier.
