Three Lions to Keep Up 100% Record

England travel to the Red Star Stadium in Belgrade to face Serbia in Group K. The Three Lions have one foot in next year’s World Cup after four wins from four. Can Thomas Tuchel’s men move on to 15 points with a success in Serbia on Tuesday?

England have been rock solid but not at their utmost best in this World Cup qualifying campaign. Still, the English have won four without conceding a single goal, seeing off Andorra (twice), Albania, and Latvia.

Serbia have taken seven points from a possible nine, winning their last two Group K games. However, this will be their toughest challenge in World Cup qualifying.

The Serbians are not an easy nut to crack on home soil, but our money is on England. Check out 2.30 for the away win and under 3.5 goals.

Comfortable Victory for French in Paris

France and Iceland go head-to-head in Paris in an intriguing Group D fixture. Both nations started their qualifying campaigns with wins at the weekend.

France are the strong favourites to win the group, and Didier Deschamps’ men got up and running with a comfortable victory against Ukraine in Poland. Michael Olise and Kylian Mbappe netted in the 2-0 win.

Iceland picked up a thumping victory over Azerbaijan in Reykjavik. Isak Bergmann Johannesson (2), Victor Palsson, Albert Gudmundsson, and Kristian Hlynsson got the goals in a resounding 5-0 triumph at Laugardalsvollur.

France are one of the top national teams in the world, and Les Bleus should make home advantage count at the Parc des Princes. We are backing the French to win -1 at 1.12.

Routine Away Win for Martinez’s Men

In Group F, Hungary and Portugal go head-to-head at the Puskas Arena. The Portuguese will move five points clear of the Hungarians with a win in Budapest.

Portugal, the UEFA Nations League champions, started World Cup qualifying with a 5-0 away win in Armenia. Joao Felix and Cristiano Ronaldo both helped themselves to braces.

Hungary let a two-goal lead slip to draw 2-2 with Republic of Ireland in Dublin. A point would have been a good result before the match, but the Hungarians were 2-0 up after just 15 minutes.

Portugal can win anywhere, and Roberto Martinez’s men could be too strong for the Magyars in Budapest. There is good value in 2.18 for the visitors to be winning at half time and full time.
