TUESDAY NIGHT\’S WORLD CUP QUALIFYING PREVIEWS

TUESDAY night see\’s some massive World Cup qualifying matches and one of the biggest is in Group D where Republic of Ireland host group leaders Serbia.
 
The Irish were bitterly disappointing in their 1-1 draw with group minnows Georgia on Saturday night and this has now become a “must win” match for Martin O\’Neil\’s squad and they are a general 2.75  to get the valuable three points.
 
The Irish haven\’t lost a home qualifier since 2013, but they will have to raise their game massively against a very, very strong Serbian side who are also 2.75 for the win.
 
The Serbians have an impressive qualifying record so far, unbeaten in their seven qualifiers and boast quality throughout the side and their approach in this campaign has been to attack from the beginning and that isn\’t going to change and I fancy goals and over 2.5 at the 2.40 with Bet365 does looks the best bet in the match and on the match markets the draw, which was the case when the two met in the reverse fixture looks the value again at 3.20 betting odds with Sportingbet.
 
WALES gave their qualifying hopes a huge boast with their 1-0 win over Austria also in Group D on Saturday night and they are fancied to win again against Moldova.
Liverpool\’s Ben Woodburn marked his dream debut with a fine winner with his first touch on Saturday and Chris Coleman\’s side have started to see the money come for them and they are now into a general 1.36 to get the win.
 
Moldova haven\’t won in this qualifying campaign and they are a general 10.00 chance to register their first on Tuesday night, but it won\’t happen.
With only four goals scored in seven qualifiers therein lies the problem for the Moldovans and with Wales boasting the best defense in Group D a Welsh win to nil at 1.91 with Bet365 looks the best bet in the match.
 
Turkey host Croatia in another “must win” qualifier this time in Group I.
A win for the Turk\’s will see them go above Croatia in the standings and they are a rather generous 3.50 with Paddy Power to get that win.
 
The Croatians\’ currently sit in second of the group, but a win here will see them almost guarantee a spot at next summers finals, with a game in hand against their rivals and they are 2.20 with Bet365.
 
The two drew 1-1 in the reverse fixture and I am expecting this to be just as close with so much at stake and just two goals conceded, the under 2.5 goals is the best wager at 1.66 with BetBright and I also like under 1.5 goals at a better price of 3.00 with BetBright again.
