We guess that both teams will go out on the field for the victory and will get a goal. We expect a very interesting match and we think Italy will perform better than Portugal and earn the three points. Our football forecast is 1.

Kirgizstan vs. Australia
The two teams are from different classes and it`s clear almost at all. The hosts are not from the good teams in the world but are not in a rundown condition as well. We assume it would be a perfect match and although there is a difference in classes, Australia is not from the strongest rivals. Our soccer prediction is -2.5.

Hong Kong vs. Maldives
Hong Kong is a machine for goals! Maldives is not a very impressive team. The guests have had a series of unsuccessful matches and if they score a goal, then it would be a random one. The hosts have become a very good team and today they will again seek the classics in these qualifications. Our football prediction is +3.5
