Türkiye - France

This Nations League A fixture carries the day's highest importance score (68): Türkiye host France at 21:45, and the strong interest from Turkish fans adds extra spice. The picture on the pitch is a story of contrasts. The hosts have 2 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats in their last five matches, while France arrive with 3 victories and 2 defeats and more momentum. France score 2 goals per match and concede 1.6, whereas Türkiye score 1.2 and concede 1.4. Both teams score in 60% of Türkiye's matches, but that figure is only 20% for France. With Felix Zwayer in charge, the high-scoring potential reads as weak/risky. The key question: can Türkiye's defence cope with France's attacking average?

Italy - Belgium

A defence conceding just 0.2 goals per match meets an attack scoring 2.6. Italy arrive unbeaten, with 3 victories and 2 draws, yet they average 1 goal in attack and their total goals per match stay at 1.2. Belgium come with 3 victories, 1 draw and 1 defeat; they concede 1.2, their total goals average rises to 3.8, and both teams score in 80% of their matches. In this 66-importance-score clash at 21:45, officiated by Daniel Siebert, the high-scoring potential looks weak/risky. The character of the match depends on which side imposes its own tendency: Belgium's goal flow or Italy's tight defence?

Georgia - Northern Ireland

Georgia's form card shows 2 victories and 3 draws, with no defeats. This UEFA Nations League B fixture kicks off at 19:00, and the hosts score 1.6 goals per match while conceding just 0.8, a balanced profile. Northern Ireland have a more uneven record, with 2 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats, scoring 0.8 and conceding 1.2. Their total goals averages are limited to 2.4 and 2.0, so a controlled contest stands out more than a goal-fest. In the match refereed by Orel Grinfeld, the high-scoring potential is weak/risky. Northern Ireland's 0.8 scoring average could be the most decisive figure of this game.

Nigeria - Madagascar

Three-time African champions Nigeria host Madagascar on the road to the Africa Cup of Nations, with kickoff at 19:00. The hosts have a balanced form line of 2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat, scoring 2 goals per match and conceding 1.2. Madagascar's matches average 4 goals; the visitors score 1.8 and concede 2.2, leaving them open at the back. Both teams score in 60% of matches on each side. These numbers earn one of the day's most positive labels: strong/playable high-scoring potential. With both teams' total goals averages above 3, a lively evening looks likely.

Mozambique - Senegal

Both teams have been struggling lately: Mozambique arrive with 1 victory and 4 defeats, Senegal with 1 victory, 1 draw and 3 defeats. The first match of the day kicks off at 16:00, with Senegal, who have an African title in their history, travelling to Mozambique. The hosts score 1 goal per match and concede 2.6, while Senegal score 2 and concede 1.8. Total goals averages are 3.6 and 3.8, and both teams score in 60% of matches on each side. Rated strong/playable for high-scoring potential, this is a match where open play can be expected.

Morocco - Gabon

Gabon's matches average 4.8 goals, the highest figure of the day. The visitors arrive with 1 victory and 4 defeats, scoring 2 goals per match and conceding 2.8, and both teams score in 80% of their games. Morocco, one of Africa's strong sides, look for momentum after 2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat; they score 1.4, concede 1, and their both-teams-to-score rate is only 20%. This 22:00 qualifier puts two opposing tendencies on the same pitch. The high-scoring potential is at a medium level.

Armenia - Latvia

Armenia's five-match run contains no victory: 2 draws and 3 defeats. This UEFA Nations League C fixture kicks off at 19:00; the hosts score 0.8 goals per match while conceding 2.8, and both teams score in 80% of their games. Latvia come with 2 victories and 3 defeats, scoring 1.6 and conceding 1.8. Total goals averages of 3.6 and 3.4 are close to each other. In the match to be officiated by Martin Matosa, the high-scoring potential is medium. If Armenia's defence can bring that 2.8 average down, could Latvia's plan be disrupted?

Algeria - Zambia

Zambia's 0.2 goals-per-match average is the most striking number of this fixture. The visitors have no victories, with 2 draws and 3 defeats, and they concede 2.2 goals per match. Algeria arrive with 2 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats; they score 1.8, concede 1.8, and their total goals average is 3.6. In this qualifier kicking off at 22:00, the high-scoring potential is weak/risky. Goals flow freely in 80% of Algeria's matches, but Zambia's scarcity in attack could put the brakes on that trend; that is the key balance of the match.
