Stat Attack
- Wales won 4-0 in their only previous friendly against Liechtenstein in November 2006, and are unbeaten against their opponents in all competitions (W3).
- Liechtenstein lost both previous visits to Wales in all competitions without scoring (L2), having lost 4-0 in a friendly in November 2006 then 2-0 in October 2008.
- Three of Wales’ four goals in their two qualifiers so far in this group came after half-time (W1, D1).
- Liechtenstein have conceded five goals in their two qualifiers without reply (L2).
Prediction
Having battled valiantly to a deserved 1-1 draw away to North Macedonia with a last-gap comeback goal, Wales now need to make this opportunity count and be more clinical because a win would likely put them top as I can’t see North Macedonia beating Belgium.
Liechtenstein meanwhile don’t stand any real chance of achieving World Cup qualification but after conceding five goals in two games, this is simply a game where they will be lucky to get a point if can dig in defensively and keep Wales quiet.
I however don’t see that happening because if Wales can stay composed and dominate the game, their unbeaten start under Craig Bellamy will surely continue.
Prediction: Wales 2-0 Liechtenstein
Result: Wales 3-0 Liechtenstein
