Topic: European Championships Qualifiers picks 2-3/9

Thursday:


Israel vs Malta

Israel are strong at home and I believe they will be able to take all three points in this one.

Israel win.


Friday:


Armenia vs Ireland Republic

Ireland Republic have a stronger team than Armenia and I believe they could manage to win this one.

Ireland Republic win.


Andorra vs Russia

Russia should have no problems winning this game by at least two goals even tough it is an away game.

Russia win with 1-0 handicap.


Sweden vs Hungary

Sweden are very strong and should have no problems beating Hungary in this one.

Sweden win.


Lithuania vs Scotland

Scotland have a strong team and I believe they have a good chance of getting something from this game.

Scotland win.


Estonia vs Italy

Italy have a strong team and I believe they will have no problems winning this one away.

Italy win.


Liechtenstein vs Spain

Spain should have no problems winning this game and I believe they will manage to do it by at least two goals.

Spain win with 1-0 handicap.


Belgium vs Germany

Germany have good stats against Belgium and I believe the visitors will win this one.

Germany win.


Slovenia vs Northern Ireland

Slovenia won 2-0 here in the qualifiers for the World Cup and I believe they will win this meeting as well.

Slovenia win.


Greece vs Georgia

Greece have good stats against Georgia and should be able to win this one at home.

Greece win.


France vs Belarus

France struggled at the World Cup but I believe they will be able to bounce back with a win in this one.

France win.


England vs Bulgaria

England boss Fabio Capello will be desperate to bounce back from the Three Lions' problems at the World Cup.

England win with 0-1 handicap.


Iceland vs Norway

The last three meetings between these three have ended in draws and I believe this one could be close as well.

Norway win.
