Our prediction for this World Cup 2026 match:
Kosovo will be aiming to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Sweden when they host Georgia to their Stadiumi Fadil Vokrri on Tuesday evening. The Kosovars missed out on a place at the 2022 World Cup finals, but their pride will be at stake when they take on Georgia in their penultimate group game. Defender Florent Hadergjonaj is banned for the match, with both Selmani and Domgjoni pushing for a start.
The Georgians, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the table, with the team collecting only one point in total. Since both sides will be with guards down in Tuesday’s qualifier, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Keep in mind that experienced midfielder Jaba Kankava misses the game through suspension for the visiting team.
