Wales vs Ukraine Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Prediction
Ukraine shocked Scotland at Hampden Park in the two nations World Cup qualification playoff semi final and will be targeting another away win when they face Wales in the final. Wales plays host to Ukraine, coming from a 2-1 loss away to Poland. The loss to Poland was Wales’ first in 10 matches and it came as they rested their top players with this game in mind. Head coach Rob Page rested Joe Allen, Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey for the Poland game, but these three will be sure starters against Ukraine on Sunday. Wales’ only loss in the last 11 World Cup qualification matches at home was against Ireland in 2017. It ended 1-0 and remains one of two home matches in those 11, that Wales failed to score. These two nations last met competitively in 2001, in the 2002 World Cup qualifiers.
Ukraine are coming from a 3-1 away win in Scotland and a win for them will secure a place in the World Cup on the back of a devastating war in their country. This is a big motivation for Oleksandr Petrakov and his charges. They come into the game unbeaten in nine matches and the last three, one of them a friendly match, have all ended in wins. One clean sheet only in the last 10 matches is the biggest concern they will have, especially knowing that Wales will line up their best. Ukraine gave a lot in their win over Scotland, and the recovery period is short; this too will come into play here. Ukraine will be banking as well on their great away run going into this game; they have four straight away wins, and haven’t lost an away game in the last seven.

Our Wales vs Ukraine Prediction
Ukraine have a great scoring run and the same is the case with Wales too. This Ukraine side, fueled by the situation back home, have become one tough side to beat, as Scotland learnt. Wales must employ caution in this game, even though they play at home, with a big backing and having rested key players. For both nations, this is a huge game, as they seek second appearances at the World Cup, and you can expect a very tight game. Go for a draw at 90 minutes.
