Belgium vs Wales predictions: Visitors to hold their own
Key stats
- Belgium have never lost to Wales at home.
- Five consecutive clashes between these teams have produced goals at both ends.
- Wales have no losses in their last nine games.
Correct score prediction: Belgium 1-1 Wales
Wales have been a tough team to beat, stringing together a nine-match unbeaten run across all competitions.
On the other hand, Belgium's recent run of results does not inspire much confidence. They managed only one win in their last eight games (D2, L5), despite being clear favourites in most of them.
Interestingly, four of the last eight meetings between these teams ended in stalemates, three of them being 1-1 draws. Given that the spoils were shared in Wales' last three away matches, we believe both teams will be level after 90 minutes.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Wales appear to be up against it
- HOME: 2/5 (1.40) – 71.4%
- DRAW: 7/2 (4.50) – 22.2%
- AWAY: 13/2 (7.50) – 13.3%
*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Belgium and Wales were paired with Kazakhstan, North Macedonia and Liechtenstein in Group J of UEFA's 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
At the time of publishing, Wales are leading the standings with seven points from a possible nine.
On the other hand, third-placed Belgium have played only one game so far, due to their involvement in the UEFA Nations League playoffs in March.
It is important to note that the group leaders will secure an automatic World Cup spot, while the runners-up will have to go through a playoff round.
Despite their recent shortcomings, Belgium are the expected winners at 2/5 (1.40). Teams with these odds usually have a 71.4% probability of winning.

We have also pointed out that both teams were on the scoresheet in five consecutive meetings between these teams. For this reason, BTTS – Yes has an appealing look at 21/20 (2.05). That one has a 48.8% chance of landing.
Most recent H2Hs: An even contest
In Belgium's last eight encounters with Wales, both teams have won twice, with four draws. However, it is fair to note that Belgium are unbeaten in four consecutive skirmishes between these sides, and they were victorious the last two times they hosted Wales.

Belgium preview: Hoping to get back on track
A lack of concentration in the final few minutes of regulation time denied Rudi Garcia's side all three points in their World Cup qualifying opener against North Macedonia on Friday.
Nonetheless, with no fresh injuries, Garcia is expected to stick with the same starting XI when Belgium host Wales on Monday, as they look to earn their first win of the qualifying rounds.
Predicted lineup: Sels (GK), Meunier, Faes, Debast, De Cuyper, Raskin, De Bruyne, Vanaken, Saelemaekers, Lukaku & Doku.

Wales preview: Looking to extend their unbeaten run
Wales thrashed Liechtenstein 3-0 in their last outing to cement their place at the top of Group J.
However, that victory came at a cost for Craig Bellamy's side, as defender Neco Williams picked up an injury with less than half an hour played. This means the Nottingham Forest man will most likely be unavailable for Monday's game.
Left-back Jay DaSilva is expected to cover for Williams' expected absence, while Kieffer Moore continues to lead the line.
Predicted lineup: Darlow (GK), Roberts, Rodon, Davies, DaSilva, Ampadu, Wilson, Johnson, Cullen, Thomas & Moore.
