Finland hosts Wales in a friendly international match. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 1st at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium (Helsinki)
Finland has long been regarded as an outsider in European football, albeit sometimes it managed to spoil the nerves of favorites. But under the management of Markku Kanerva, the Eagle-owls managed to step up significantly, and the peak was the promotion to the European Championship. Moreover, the Finns got there directly! At the same time, the debutant began with a victory over Denmark, even though the incident with Eriksen influenced a lot. As for the World Cup qualification, Pukki and the company managed not to lose to Ukraine and Bosnia in March. On the other hand, this team should not be overestimated either. At the Euro, the Finns lost to Belgium and Russia without scoring a single goal. And before the tournament, Suomi lost to their neighbors, Sweden and Estonia, in friendly matches and also did not score.

The national team of Wales went to the 2nd continental tournament in a row. The experts did not expect much from the Dragons: they had a difficult group, and a head coach is under house arrest, because of which a little-known Rob Page managed the team. However, Wales locked up a spot in the playoffs already after the 2nd round, tying against Switzerland and beating Turkey. But in the 1/8 finals, the Dragons lost to Denmark without any chances (0-4). Now the coaching staff seems to have managed to gather all the best, except defender Roberts from Swansea. But how does Bale feel after the return to Real Madrid? And what about Ramsey, who is not particularly trusted in Juventus? Nevertheless, they will probably not appear on the pitch, as very important official matches are ahead. There are no new faces, and even 19-year-old Colwill from Cardiff has already made his debut.
Less than a year ago, the teams crossed paths in the Nations League. Then Wales turned out to be stronger both times. Now the Dragons have come off as a whole: six wins against four in 14 head-to-head matches played. In principle, both teams are not inclined to a spectacular game. And this is a friendly match, so it is important not to get the result but to save strength. We bet on Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
