Northern Ireland Slovakia betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is for Slovakia not to lose. The visiting team has a more organized and higher quality players compared to the opponent, so it is only natural they dominate the main incidences of this match. On the other hand, Northern Ireland has shown some difficulties in its game model, especially in the most backward sector. That said, we expect a very interesting game, however, taking chances in favor of the "Draw or Slovakia" market is a good option.

Preview
Northern Ireland and Slovakia meet at Windsor Park, in a match for this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Play‑offs Path B ‑ Final). There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 04‑06‑2016, the match ended with the final score: Slovakia (0‑0) Northern Ireland. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis N. Ireland

The home team comes to this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Play‑offs Path B ‑ Final) after having eliminated Bosnia‑Herzegovina with a away win by (3‑4), after a penalty shootout, in the previous round. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Norway by (1‑0). Northern Ireland registers 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 home matches for the EC Qualification.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 5 matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 9 matches for this competition.

Northern Ireland comes unmotivated for this match after recording another defeat, this time against Norway, by 1-0. We recall that the home team reaches this final of the play-offs for access to EURO 2020 after overtaking Bosnia on penalties. In this match against Slovakia, mister Ian Baraclough should play in 5-3-2, privileging offensive transitions and channeling the attack across the flanks. The two arrows aimed at the "enemy" goal will be Josh Magennis and Conor Washington. It is possible that Jordan Thompson, George Saville and Corry Evans make up the center of the field. The home coach can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Bailey Peacock-Farrell, Craig Cathcart, Jonny Evans, Jamal Lewis, Steven Davis, George Saville, Stuart Dallas, Paddy McNair, Niall McGinn, Conor Washington, Josh Magennis.
Coach: I. Baraclough.

Analysis Slovakia

The away team comes to this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Play‑offs Path B ‑ Final) after a home win by (4‑2), after a penalty shootout, against Republic of Ireland. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 17 conceded. In their last match, for the UEFA Nations League, they got a home loss against Israel by (2‑3). In the last 4 EC Qualification away matches Slovakia has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses.

Slovakia enters this match after a defeat, by 2-3, in the reception to Israel, making it the second defeat in a row in official matches: the goals of the team were signed by Marek Hamsik and Robert Mak. Note that the Slovaks beat Ireland, on penalties, in the last match in these play-offs. Unlike the opponent for this final, the visiting team usually plays in a 4-3-3 formation, where the three most advanced players are Robert Mak, Albert Rusnák and Robert Bozenik. Mister Pavel Hapal cannot count on Denis Vavro, Martin Koscelnik and Lukas Haraslin, all with physical problems.
