Have to say I’m not too optimistic for this one after yesterday, especially with Ampadu & JJ suspended. At least Wilson is back.

Worth keeping an eye on Iceland/Ukraine this evening too - Iceland avoiding defeat would be great for our playoff pot 1 chances.

Can't make head nor tail of this; is it better for Wales to win on Tues, or go through the Nations League playoff?

I would think win tomorrow to be seeded, but I’m guessing and I don’t really know either!

Much better to win tomorrow, would be in pot 2( v a pot 3 team), and a home match for semi
Lose and we'll be in pot 4, semi final away to a pot 1 team eg Italy or Turkey

Not too fussed on Ampadu missing.. reminded me of Fulton on Saturday with his Rodon pivots..

Jordan James will be a miss though.. wonder If the blues brothers will feature

More likely to be Sheehan & Cullen which will annoy quite a few!

Yes definitely better for us to win tomorrow.

We’re in the playoffs either way but the difference is seeding - win and we are in pot 2 with a home semi final against a pot 3 team (currently looks like Albania, Ireland, Kosovo, Bosnia I believe).

Don’t win tomorrow and we’re in pot 4 and have to go away to a pot 1 team - currently Italy, Turkey, Ukraine or Poland, but Denmark & Austria could still drop in if the lose tomorrow.

Even if we do end up in pot 2 we’ll likely have to go through one of those pot 1 teams in the final, but that could be at home which would be a big advantage.
