World Cup Qualifier Betting Tips Today

As the international break takes the place of all league football, we take a look at some exciting fixtures  that are happening over the weekend. There are plenty of eye-catching qualifiers right now but we’ll be taking a closer look at Spain vs Sweden.

Spain and Sweden have actually not played all that many games over the years but every time these two teams meet, it is a hotly contested fixture. No side seems to be getting the better over the other and that even includes Spain’s dominant area over 2010-2012. Our World Cup qualifier predictions have a tough task on their hands for this one.

Spain has been the epitome of unlucky in the recent months. Whether this is down to the youthful nature of the squad or the fact that they just haven’t had the rub of the green, one thing remains true, this side has talent. Spain were narrowly beaten in the semi finals of Euro 202 on penalties by the team that would ultimately go on to win the whole thing. They would then narrowly lose out to France 2-1 in the Nations League Final as well.

While this would usually bode for a negative reaction, you can’t help but feel like this young Spanish squad is blossoming into something special. With some of the best youngsters in world football in Pedri and Ansu Fati, things are looking up for Spain which is why our World Cup qualifier predictions today are almost certainly picking them for a win over Sweden.

Sweden has a fairly decent record against Spain but their results in recent months have been underwhelming. They were knocked out in the first round of the knockout phase at Euro 2020 and have now lost 2 of their last World Cup qualifying matches. The matches they lost were against teams they should be beating if they want to qualify to the tournament which makes this fixture against that much more important. If Sweden lose here, their dreams of qualifying for the World Cup may be in tatters if Greece rally to a win in their last few games. While they may have more riding on this fixture than Spain, we still don’t have high hopes for them with our World Cup qualifier predictions weekend.

The head to head record makes for some strange reading between these two sides. You would be forgiven for thinking that Spain would have had the upper hand in this fixture for the majority of the matches played but it has actually been quite evenly split. In the most recent 4 matches, there has been 2 draws and a win a piece for each side. The total record sits at 6 wins for Spain, 6 draws and 4 wins for Sweden which doesn’t do much for our World Cup qualifier tips predictions.

The stats for this fixture make for some interesting reading and of course, our World Cup qualifier predictions today have been influenced by them. You can take a look at sme of the key stats that we have picked out below, These are the stats that have largely given us our outlook for our World Cup qualifier predictions weekend.

In all honesty, we just can’t see anything other than a Spain win here. This Swedish side are in dire need of confidence which is why our World Cup qualifier predictions are tipping Spain to cruise to a win. We would go for an outright Spain win for your bets but if you want to go for a more interesting betting market we would go for Spain to score 2 goals before half time.

All in all, football is a funny old game that can go either way on the day. With that being said, there really is very little that points to anything other than a Spanish win here. Spain have seemingly put the ghosts of their Nations League Final loss behind them and are in imperious form right now. Couple that with the fact that Sweden just recently took a 2-0 humbling to Georgia, and you have a recipe for a Spanish victory. Stick with our World Cup qualifier tips betting and you should find success with this one.
