Wales welcome the visitors Slovakia in the Euro Qualification – Round 2. The match will be held on Sunday, March, 24th, at the Cardiff City Stadium (Cardiff).
Wales again failed to show their best in the last friendly against Trinidad and Tobago held four days ahead of the match concerned – they won the opponents just in the extra time, 1:0. Mind they competed in the semifinal of the last European Championship. Before, they lost to Denmark, which could actually be excused, then to Albania – so, fans have many questions to ask Bale and Co.

Slovakia are no weaker than the present-form Wales. Indeed, they failed in the UEFA Nations League, but they faced solid Check Republic and Ukraine there. The team’s three-day back victory over Hungary (2:0) demonstrated that they are gradually overcoming the crisis. The Slovakians are staffed pretty well: Pekarik and Duda play for Hertha Berlin, Skrtel competed for Liverpool for ten seasons, now he fights for Fenerbahce, Lobotka сomes from Celta, Hancko from Fiorentina, Hamsik is presently in China, before, the featured twelve seasons in Napoli.
Wales are hardly scoring lately: they struggled to net one goal even to Trinidad and Tobago (and need to thank the referee who added so much time in the friendly, not all official encounters see over four extra minutes added), though they had Bale onboard. The team will find it hard to unlock Slovakia’s well-set defense. Also, they may possibly miss a counterattack by the guests – the latter managed to net to UAE, Thailand, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Denmark, Netherlands, and England. Slovakia have performers to score – like Hamsik, Duda (made ten goals in Hertha), or Stock (netted eleven times in Slavia Prague). Thus, the Slovakians are capable of resisting Wales away and bring one point at least from their Sunday trip.
Prediction for the match: Slovakia to win or Draw.
