A spot at the 2026 World Cup finals will be at stake when Wales and Northern Ireland lock horns at Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday. The Dragons desperately needed a win against Liechtenstein and they managed to get one thanks to Jordan James’ goal. As a result, Craig Bellamy’s men need a win in their last group game to advance to the World Cup playoffs. Influential midfielder Harry Wilson is back from suspension, but both Ethan Ampadu and Jordan James are banned for the decider.
The Macedonians, on the other hand, are eager to retain second place in the standings. Blagoja Milevski’s men are likely to adopt a defence-minded approach in Tuesday’s clash, but preventing Brennan Johnson and Co. from finding the net in front of home fans is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we predict that one goal will separate the two sides in the Cardiff City Stadium showdown. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Tuesday 18 November 2025 at 19:45.
