UEFA Nations League Predictions & Betting Tips 14/11/2024

Will Belgium finally put a stop to what many have described as a rancid run of performances when they host League A Group 2 leaders, Italy, in Brussels? The Belgians are winless in their last three matches, having lost twice and drawn once, including the 2-1 defeat against the Italians in the first leg in Rome. 

Elsewhere, England will want to hand Thomas Tuchel, the Three Lions’ new coach, a winning start as an international coach when they play as visitors to Greece. You need to know that this week’s UEFA Nations League matchday 5 predictions are based on current form, data, and expert knowledge.

Our Predictions for the UEFA Nations League Matchday 5 (14/11/2024)

Kazakhstan to extend their abysmal form: Kazakhstan vs Austria

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 16:00
• Kazakhstan has lost their last three matches and failed to win in their last four games. Getting anything positive off Austria, who won their last two games, is considered a stretch.

Kazakhstan has failed to win any of its opening four UEFA Nations League games, and its attack is the major reason behind this drastic run of form, having failed to score a single goal. Austria is levels better in the attack, and we expect the visitors to put at least two goals past the hosts.

Kazakhstan vs Austria prediction: Away team to win

Faroe Islands’ winless run to continue in Yerevan: Armenia vs Faroe Island

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 18:00
• Armenia under a new coach will definitely want to make a statement, and they have a huge chance of achieving this goal against struggling Faroe Islands.

Faroe Islands hasn’t won a game after four attempts, and their chances of changing that as visitors against Armenia, who will have a new coach, look vague. Armenia, who has one win and one draw in four games, is the favorite to win this encounter, and we dare to agree with the bookies.

Armenia vs Faroe Islands prediction: Home team to win

North Macedonia’s rigid defense to thwart Latvia’s threats: North Macedonia vs Latvia

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• North Macedonia to continue their fine form against struggling Latvia, who has only one win in four attempts to show.

Latvia has struggled to put up a fight for a top-two finish in League C Group 4, thanks to their dismal attack, having scored three goals in four games. Their poor attack would seriously struggle against North Macedonia, who has conceded only one goal in four games. The hosts are the favorites to win this encounter. Given their fine attack and well-organized defense, we think the bookies are right.

North Macedonia vs Latvia prediction: Home team to win

Red-form Greece to fall short in front of their home fans: Greece vs England

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• Greece may have won their opening four UEFA Nations League matches, but they are increasingly likely to experience their first defeat as England would want revenge.

England raised many eyebrows when they succumbed to a rather disappointing 1-0 defeat to Greece at Wembley, and now, under Thomas Tuchel, they will only think about setting the record straight. The Three Lions are the favorites to win the game, and their form (3W 1L) suggests they may prove the bookies right.

Greece vs England prediction: Away team to win

France to extend their winning run to four games without Kylian Mbappe: France vs Israel

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• Having won three matches in a spin, France will look to make it four wins in a bounce when they face struggling Israel in Saint-Denis.

Israel lost their opening four matches, as they conceded 13 goals. One wouldn’t be surprised by Israel’s large number of conceded goals when they were put in the same group as the likes of Belgium, Italy, and France. This encounter will be a lightweight job for Les Bleus. 

France vs Israel prediction: Home team to win

Belgium and Italy to entertain fans with goals in Brussels: Belgium vs Italy

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• Both Belgium and Italy delight their fans with proper attacking football, although we don’t expect more than four goals. 

Both countries displayed their attacking ability in the first leg in Italy, and we can equally expect the same in the return leg in Brussels, as both Italy and Belgium have scored and conceded more goals than the number of matches played.

Belgium vs Italy prediction: Both teams to score - Yes

Ireland and Finland to display drab football in Dublin: Ireland vs Finland

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• Both Ireland and Finland will continue their poor displays in the final third in Dublin.

Fans should not expect many goals in the Ireland vs Finland encounter because both countries find it really hard to score goals. Both teams may have conceded 17 goals combined, but their poor attack will likely see this encounter produce less than three goals, as both teams have scored four goals combined. 

Ireland vs Finland prediction: Under 2.5 goals

Slovenia and Norway to delight their fans with goals: Slovenia vs Norway

• Date: 14/11/2024
• Kick-off: 20:45
• Both Slovenia and Norway are likely to exchange goals. 

Slovenia will obviously try to score at home to give their fans something to cheer about, but it is somewhat unrealistic to expect them to keep out Erling Haaland and Norway from getting on the scoreboard, as the Vikings have scored six goals and conceded six goals in four games.

Slovenia vs Norway prediction: Both teams to score—Yes
