Finland vs Ireland Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League
by Steve Ashfield in UEFA Nations League Predictions
Bottom placed Finland are home to Ireland who are third in this Nations League group. Neither of these two countries have scored a goal or earned a point in their first two matches. This is in League B but the two countries are already facing a battle to avoid either being automatically relegated to League C or going into the play-offs. Here's our match prediction.
The Eagle Owls of Finland are without a point or a goal but both their games to date have been away from home. Now they have four remaining matches and three of them will be on home soil beginning with this visit from Ireland.
With there already being a six-point gap between these two countries and the top two of Greece and England, a draw would be a disastrous result for either side. Ireland are under even more pressure as both of their defeats so far came at home.

Finland - Ireland: Form Analysis
Finland are in League B for the third successive tournament after winning promotion in 2018/19. The last two Nations League tournaments have seen them finish second but they are already in danger of returning to League C.
Finland has a strong home record.
This group has so far seen them lose 3-0 away to Greece and that was followed by a 2-0 loss to England at Wembley. They have gone four games without a win and only had a victory over Estonia in their last six matches. Four of their last six home games have been won so that gives them some hope here.
Ireland have played both England and Greece at home in this group and lost both of those matches 2-0. They have always played in League B though the first two tournaments saw them fail to win a match.
The Boys in Green have lost their last three matches with only one win at home to Hungary in their last eight. Four of their last five away matches have ended in defeat.

Finland & Ireland Squad Analysis
After two defeats in this Nations League group, Ireland have made several changes to their squad. Callum Robertson, Alan Browne, Matt Dohery and Jake O'Brien have all been left out by Heimir Hallgrimsson.
Selection problems aplenty for Ireland.
They are also without the injured Seamus Coleman and Will Smallbone so there are plenty of selection problems. Into the squad come Mark McGuinness and Jack Taylor who had both previously been in the under-21s squad. There have been recalls for Finn Azaz, Jamie McGrath and Mikey Johnston. Tom Cannon who recently hit four goals in a game for Stoke City has been put on stand-by for this match.
Finland will be captained by Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky. They will again be relying on goals from 34-year-old Teemu Pukki who is the country's all-time leading scorer with 42 in 123 caps. Fredik Jensen may also start this game for the Finns after scoring in the team's last home match which was a 2-1 win over Estonia.

Our Finland vs Ireland Prediction
Both countries are in deep trouble in this Nations League group after losing their first two matches. Third place takes a side into the relegation play-offs but finishing bottom sees a team go straight down to League C.
Finland have played both of their matches away from home. They do get some good results on home soil and take on an Irish side that has lost both of their home matches in this group and struggle on the road with four of their last five matches being lost.
They have never won an away Nations League fixture. Our main Finland v Ireland prediction is Finland to win.
