WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS: Our football tipster The Ultra previews Tuesday’s matches between WALES v BELGIUM and NETHERLANDS v NORWAY both with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
WALES V BELGIUM
7.45pm The World Cup Qualifiers come to an end on Tuesday, and we have some fascinating games on BETDAQ Betting Exchange to enjoy. We start the evening in Cardiff as Wales host Belgium. Everyone expected Belgium to top Group E and they come into the final game unbeaten and certain of top spot. I felt we could see plenty of drama in this Group with Wales and Czech Republic battling for second and they head into the final matchday with three points between them. With Wales having to play Belgium, that was always going to put pressure on Wales with just a goal difference of two between them – however due to the Nations League performances, both Wales and Czech Republic will go through to the second round. Given both sides got drawn in a Group with Belgium, I’m sure they knew they will end up battling it out in the second round!
It’s a shame that we won’t see any dramatic finishes tonight, however Wales will be happy with that. I know we could see some changes to the Belgium side given the situation in the Group, and it’s for that reason I’m happy to keep stakes reasonably low, however Belgium look good value here at 2.44. This Belgium squad is the best they’ve ever had, and while they tend to come up short in the big games, they always do very well in qualifying and against the smaller teams. Wales are a good side, but they just aren’t at the same level of Belgium and I would have Belgium closer to 2.2 here. Wales have focused on being solid at the back in recent times, and while that has worked out well for them in qualifying, it’s highly likely in my view that Belgium will out score them as they create more chances here. Belgium are too big, but again I’m happy to limit stakes given the situation.
The Ultra Says:
Two points win Belgium to beat Wales at 2.44 with BETDAQ Exchange.

NETHERLANDS V NORWAY
7.45pm Next we move over to Group G for a massive game between the Netherlands and Norway. The Wales v Belgium game could have been massive above, however due to the Nations League performances there’s basically no pressure heading into the final round of games. That is not the situation in this Group however, with Netherlands topping the Group at the moment and then Turkey and Norway two points behind them in second and third. There’s just one goal between Turkey and Norway, and that’s going to go right down to the wire. It will be unfortunate for the one who misses out, but that’s what the Nations League is there for and they don’t have that to fall back on. Turkey actually got relegated from Group B3 and Norway finished second in Group B1. Turkey are trading around 1.7 away to Montenegro tonight, so obviously all the pressure is on Norway here who have a very tough task here.
The Netherlands lost 4-2 away to Turkey in March, and that opened up the Group and allowed Turkey and Norway to get within touching distance going into the final matchday. The Netherlands have been banging in the goals for fun since then however, and go into this game with a goal difference of +23! Norway managed to hold Netherlands to a 1-1 draw however when they had home advantage, and they will likely put XI men behind the ball here in search of a result. A draw will unlikely be enough however, which might see the game turn very open in the second half. Netherlands look priced correctly at around 1.48, I wouldn’t be a backer of them at those odds. I have to say this game screams overs, especially with the way Netherlands play and the Group situation – over 2.5 goals is worth backing at 1.66.
The Ultra Says:
Three points win Over 2.5 goals at 1.66 with BETDAQ Exchange.
