Luxembourg vs Belarus Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League

Luxembourg and Belarus will be eyeing wins in the second round of the Nations League when they meet on Sunday. The nations registered mixed results in their League C openers but predictions favor hosts Luxembourg to win this Group 3 match.

Playing away to Northern Ireland on Thursday, Luxembourg’s fate was sealed early in the first half. Goals from Patrick McNair and Daniel Ballard in the opening 16 minutes condemned them to defeat. It was their third loss in a row and the fourth time in five matches that they failed to score.

Luxembourg will be targeting home comforts in their next game. The last time they played at home, they won 2-1 against Kazakhstan. Things are generally rosier at home, the hosts having banked four wins in the last five home matches.

Belarus collected one point from their opening game of this season’s Nations League. While they’d have loved a better start, a 0-0 draw at home to Bulgaria still felt welcome. Carlos Alos will, however, rue his charges’ failure to make their numerical advantage count after Bulgaria had a man sent off.

The big pain from the game, however, will be their inadequacies in attack. Belarus have now failed to score in the last five matches across all competitions. It means they have no win in that period, and they suffered three defeats in the process.

Belarus have played 16 matches between 2022 November and now; they registered just three wins in that streak. The team managed to score more than a goal on only two occasions in the said 16 outings.
