Accumulator Tip:
Bulgaria to beat Malta 1/3
First up are Bulgaria. Bulgaria have had a decent qualifying and sit second in their group. Their only defeat in qualifying to date has been runaway leaders Italy and are a much better team than Malta. Malta have just three points in qualifying and have lost every game at home so far. When the two teams met earlier in qualifying Bulgaria smashed Malta 6-0. This is a huge demonstration of the difference in quality between the two teams and I expect this to be shown again on Tuesday with Bulgaria strong winners.
Romania to beat Turkey 6/5:
Romania have been a bit of a surprise package in Group D and a win on Tuesday could see them well on course for a Play-Off spot Romania have been superb at home so far, winning two out of three matches, only losing to a stunning Holland side. Their only defeats to date have been against the Dutch and that says a lot about their quality. They take on a Turkey side struggling for a bit of form, their only victories have been against whipping boys Andorra and Estonia and they were beaten by Romania at home. An out of sorts Turkey aren’t having their best qualifying and with Romania going well I fully expect them to beat the Turks.
Slovenia to beat Cyprus 6/5:
The bottom two go head to head in Group E in this one but a win for Slovenia would keep them right in the mix for a Play-Off Spot. Slovenia may be second bottom but they are only two points adrift of a Play-Off place. Slovenia have picked up three wins so far including beating Cyprus 2-1 in Slovenia. I fully expect Slovenia to repeat this away to a Cyprus side who have already been beaten five times in qualifying.
Hungary to beat Estonia 2/5:
If the aforementioned Romania slip up against Turkey, 3rd placed Hungary will be looking to take full advantage at home to Estonia. Hungary are by no means a bad side with three wins under their belt qualifying so far and only losing to the two teams above them. They have picked up three solid wins including Estonia away from home. Estonia’s only wins in qualifying so far have been against Andorra, showing how poor they are. They have lost four matches to date and Hungary should be dealing them their fifth.
Italy to beat Czech Republic 8/15:
Finally the Italians. With three games to go, Italy’s spot in Rio is all but confirmed and a win against the Czech’s would guarantee it. Italy are unbeaten so far in qualifying and have won all three matches at home. The two teams drew 0-0 when they met in Prague but at home Italy should be far too strong. The Czech’s are in a four way fight for second spot but only have two wins under their belt against Malta and Armeina. The Czech’s have struggled for goals at times recording three 0-0 draws and should struggle to keep Italy out.
ACCUMULATOR ODDS: 13/1
