Northern Ireland vs. Bulgaria Tips & Quotas, Mar 31, 2021 – 08:45 PM – World Cup Qualification Europe
Northern Ireland and Bulgaria showed major problems at the start of the World Cup qualification in Europe. Both teams are still without points on the third day of the match. The Northern Ireland only played one game. In the direct duel, it should now go uphill for one of the two opponents. Northern Ireland will enjoy its home at Windsor Park in Belfast on Wednesday from 20:45. The extent to which this can be used and how the odds relate to the match must be clarified in the following betting tip forecast.

The Northern Ireland had to prove their skills with the Italians on the first qualifying day. Guests had the first good opportunity after just 60 seconds. Donnarumma kept his box clean. With increasing playing time, the Squadra Azzurra became better and more dominant. The leadership was only a matter of time. After 13 minutes Berardi scored this. Immobile even increased to 2:0 shortly before the break. In the second round, the Azzurri did only what was necessary and barely developed a train to the gate. The Northern Ireland struggled with sacrifice, but showed itself above all in the exploitation of opportunities at a very manageable level. Consequently, the score remained 0-2 at the end.
In Group C, the „Green & White Army” is more likely to be an outsider against strong competition from Italy and Switzerland. This is illustrated by the quotas. Although the Northern Ireland has only played one game after two days of group play, the gap with the top duo from Switzerland and Italy measures a total of six points. It will certainly not be easy to play one of the first two places.
The most recent achievements were anything but convincing. The last seven compulsory matches only result in a sad dot. Thus, six of the past seven duels were lost. The only draw came after a 1-1 draw against Romania in the Nations League.

The Bulgarians met Switzerland on the first day of the match. The nation set off like the fire brigade on opposing soil and quickly gained good shot opportunities. Within 12 minutes, a total of three goals should result. These were paid to Embolo(7th), Seferovic (10th) and Zuber (12th). The Bulgarians were completely deregistered in the first round and were lucky enough to score 0-3 for the break. After the change of sides, the home team made a lightning start and came through Despodov to the goal. The hosts wanted to follow up, but missed out on their opportunities. Since the Confederates also didn’t get on too much offensively anymore, it stayed at 1:3 in the end.
The second match day brought with it Italy the second big chunk. The guests from Italy pressed the tube from the beginning and played forward. The landlords, on the other hand, stood very low and allowed only little. Shortly before the break, Squadra Azzurra managed to earn the lead by a penalty transformed by Belotti. A similar picture also emerged after the page change. The guests were here in the ring and came after 82 minutes to 2:0 through Locatelli. At the end of the day, it should remain so.
The first two group games were thus lost. With a score of zero, the Bulgarians finished last in group C. The offensive scored only one goal and the defensive team scored a total of five goals on the other side. Qualification for the final round is therefore unlikely.
The shape curve of the Bulgarians points steeply downwards. Only one point has been scored in the past four competitive matches. A total of three defeats had to be accepted. The draw was made against Ireland in the Nations League.
Recent matches from Bulgaria

The odds indicate that Northern Ireland is slightly favoured in this duel. This is primarily due to home law. The Bulgarians are also under pressure after two defeats on the first two match days. Recently, both teams showed very poor form. With a victory in direct power measurement, however, at least chances of the World Cup could be preserved purely mathematically. The last three direct matches were played very defensively. Never scored more than 2.5 goals (0:1, 2:0, 0:2). Again, a defensive match is to be expected. Both teams have so far scored only one goal in the competition and are not exactly known for gripping offensive football. For this reason, it is advisable to bet on a few goals in the course of the Bet Tip Forecast.
