Wales vs Gibraltar Prediction: International Friendly Match 11.10.2023

Wales have a slight pause in their race to secure a spot at EURO 2024 this week, as they are in friendly action on Tuesday evening against Gibraltar. The hosts will be looking for a morale-boosting performance against their European rivals, before returning to qualification action next week.

International Friendly Preview

It has been a disappointing qualification campaign for Wales, as they look unable to back up their performance at the 2022 World Cup based on their current position in the standings. Wales currently sit fourth in Group D, as they have won just twice in their five group stage matches. In truth, they will need a minor miracle to finish in the top two spots, as they will need to claim victories in all three remaining matches. 

Wales at least ended a three-game winless run in the previous international break, as they secured maximum points against Latvia on the road. That was a fine response by the European nation, with Aaron Ramsey and David Brooks scoring the goals. With EURO qualification looking like an outside chance, the coach may ring the changes for this home fixture against a lowly-ranked opponent.

Gibraltar will also pause their qualification campaign for this away fixture against Wales on Tuesday. However, their dreams of achieving an unlikely passage through to EURO 2024 have already come to an end, as they have lost each of their five matches in Group B. 

Furthermore, they have struggled against their rivals in the group, as they have allowed a group-high of 17 goals, and they are yet to find the back of the net. They were easily beaten in their most recent international match, as they fell to a 5-0 defeat on the road against Greece. Gibraltar failed to register a single shot on target in that defeat. 

Wales vs Gibraltar Head to Head

This will be a famous moment for Gibraltar, as they will come up against Wales for the first time in their history. It will be fascinating to see which national side can claim victory in Cardiff. 

Wales vs Gibraltar Prediction

Wins have been hard to come by for Gibraltar since they have been recognised by UEFA. Wales have been in poor form since the start of last year’s World Cup, but they will be heavily expected to claim victory in front of their home fans this week by a commanding margin.
