50/1 Ireland To Beat Wales

Get amazing enhanced odds 18/1 Ireland to beat Wales

The Republic of Ireland make the short trip to Wales on Monday evening for what will be their biggest game in quite a while. Qualification for the 2018 World Cup in Russia hangs in the balance for both these sides, and they can both still win the group and qualify automatically if things go their way.

Serbia are currently top of the group with 18 points, with Wales in second with 17 and Ireland in third with 16. Serbia host Georgia so are favourites to win the group. Whoever wins the Wales vs Ireland game will finish second, which likely means a play off.

Chris Coleman’s Wales have still not been beaten in this qualifying campaign, and a win here would secure them second place in the group at the very least. Their last match was a 1-0 win away to Georgia, but Ireland should provide a bigger test. The Welsh are without the world class Gareth Bale, so mentally that may put them at a disadvantage.

The Republic of Ireland look like they are in good shape going into the crucial contest, brushing aside Moldova 2-0. Nottingham Forest striker Daryl Murphy grabbed both the goals for the Boys in Green and he will be looking to secure another win on Monday. The reverse fixture was a 0-0 draw, so this game may just be a goal either way.
