Malta vs Netherlands

Malta will host European heavyweights Netherlands at the Ta’ Qali National Stadium. The Dutch team, led by coach Ronald Koeman, is top of Group G and aiming to consolidate their position for direct qualification. Malta, ranked significantly lower in FIFA standings, will look to remain compact and avoid a heavy scoreline after a previous 8-0 drubbing earlier this year.
Players to watch:
What to expect: Expect the Netherlands to dominate with their fluid attacking style and technical superiority, likely overwhelming Malta’s defensive setup. A comfortable win for the Oranje is on the cards. This would ensure Netherlands inching closer to their next World Cup.
Czechia vs Croatia

This Group L clash promises to be a tactical battle between two well-balanced sides. Both teams have strong qualifying campaigns underway and know the importance of securing maximum points at this stage.
Both teams are at 12 points, though Czechia have played one more game than Croatia. They follow Croatia at No. 2 on the points table.
Players to watch:

Austria vs San Marino
Date & Time: 11 October, 12.15 AM IST
Austria, positioned comfortably in Group H, plays home favorite against the minnows San Marino, who have struggled in qualifiers. Austria’s depth and quality should shine against a defensive San Marino side.
Austria are currently at the No.2 position on the points table with 12 points after 4 games. A win for them would mean they will top the group, while San Marino will continue at the bottom of the table.
Players to watch:

Belarus vs Denmark

A crucial Group C fixture where Denmark, known for their tactical discipline and attacking flair, aim to extend their lead in the group. Belarus, meanwhile, will strive to improve their results on home soil.
Denmark is at the top of the group, even after 1 win and 1 defeat in their two matches so far. Meantime, Belarus have lost both of their matches in the group stage so far.
Players to watch:
What to expect: Denmark are expected to control the game with their fluid play and clinical finishing. They have some great talents from teams like Manchester United, FC Barcelona, and other top clubs of Europe.
