In order to have any theoretical chance for second place in the group, Finland now needs a mandatory victory. They managed to win their last two home games 2:1 against Poland and Lithuania, and they have also beaten Malta away 1:0. However, they are three points behind second-placed Poland, having played one more match than them.
Malta will remain winless againMalta fully justifies its role as the outsider in the group. They are at the bottom and still without a win. In their six matches, they have earned only two points and scored just one goal. Excluding the matches against the Netherlands, four out of Malta's six matches so far have had under 2.5 goals. As guests in Lithuania, they earned their only point after a 1:1 draw.
Prediction: victory for Finland with a clean sheet, Finland to win and under 3.5 goalsFinland should secure another home victory against the outsider in the group, which I believe will again fail to score. However, I expect a not very convincing success.
