Monday's Nations League predictions including France vs. Belgium

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Nations League fixtures, including France vs. Belgium.


Cyprus vs. Kosovo (Monday, 5.00pm)

Cyprus welcome Kosovo to Larnaca in Group C2 of the UEFA Nations League on Monday on the back of an impressive win on matchday one.

Another win for the hosts will see them beat their points tally from the last UNL after just two games, while Kosovo need to respond after a humbling defeat in Pristina against Romania.

We say: Cyprus 1-1 Kosovo


Kosovo have had great difficulty in recent years at performing when being the favourites to win, especially in Euro 2024 qualifying, and they could be in for a frustrating evening against a rejuvenated Cyprus side.

The hosts ended a five-year wait for an away win on Friday, and they have been strong at home in previous editions of the Nations League, so cannot be underestimated here.

France vs. Belgium (Monday, 7.45pm)

Two old rivals reconvene on Monday evening, as France host Belgium in their second UEFA Nations League fixture of the new season.

While Les Bleus lost at home to Italy on Group 2's opening night, the Red Devils claimed maximum points ahead of their trip to Lyon.

We say: France 2-1 Belgium


Winners in each of these nations' last three meetings, France certainly hold a psychological edge over their neighbours - and they will be stung into action by Friday's defeat.

While Belgium occasionally sparkled in their Nations League opener, they still look shaky at the back: Kylian Mbappe and co should capitalise on any mistakes.

Israel vs. Italy (Monday, 7.45pm)

Having kicked off their latest UEFA Nations League campaign with a stunning victory in Paris, Italy meet Israel in their second Group 2 fixture on Monday.

The Azzurri head to Hungary - where the game will be played for security reasons - with three points already in the bag; meanwhile, their opponents were beaten 3-1 by Belgium.

We say: Israel 0-2 Italy


Buoyed by their feats in France, new-look Italy should take care of business against an Israel side short of international nous and experience.

Moving onto six points from a possible six would put the Azzurri in a strong position ahead of next month's clash with Belgium in Rome.

Norway vs. Austria (Monday, 7.45pm)

Norway return home after a lengthy trip to central Asia last week to face Austria in the UEFA Nations League on Monday.

The two meet in Oslo with nothing to separate them, after both games on the opening matchday of Group B3 ended level.

We say: Norway 0-1 Austria


Solbakken is under intense pressure to improve Norway's fortunes, but after another feeble performance in Kazakhstan on Friday, the team does not seem to be clicking as well as it could be.

Austria's showing at Euro 2024 suggests there is more to come from them under Rangnick, and a win here will really back up their credentials as favourites in Group B3.

Slovenia vs. Kazakhstan (Monday, 7.45pm)

Slovenia will be bidding to record their first victory of their 2024-25 UEFA Nations League campaign when they welcome Kazakhstan to Stozice Stadium on Monday night.

The hosts opened their League B Group 3 campaign with a 1-1 draw against Austria on Friday, while Kazakhstan played out a goalless draw with Norway on the same night.

We say: Slovenia 1-0 Kazakhstan


Kazakhstan will take a lot of confidence from their goalless draw with Norway, but Slovenia have home advantage here, and we are backing Kek's team to navigate their way to a narrow success on Monday night.

Montenegro vs. Wales (Monday, 7.45pm)

Wales will be aiming to build on their draw against Turkey when they continue their 2024-25 UEFA Nations League campaign with a contest against Montenegro on Monday night.

Craig Bellamy's side picked up a welcome point in a 0-0 draw with Turkey last time out, while Montenegro opened their Group 4 League B challenge with a 2-0 defeat to Iceland.

We say: Montenegro 1-1 Wales


Wales will believe that they are good enough to triumph on Monday, but it will be a tricky assignment. It would not be a surprise to see a home or indeed an away win in this contest, but we just have a feeling that a cagey contest will end with the points being shared.

Turkey vs. Iceland (Monday, 7.45pm)

Turkey will be aiming to secure their first victory of their 2024-25 UEFA Nations League campaign when they welcome Iceland to Izmir on Monday night.

The hosts opened their League B Group 4 challenge with a goalless draw against Wales on Friday, while Iceland recorded a 2-0 victory over Montenegro courtesy of goals from Orri Oskarsson and Jon Dagur Thorsteinsson.

We say: Turkey 1-1 Iceland


This is a very intriguing match, as Turkey will be aiming for their first win in the section, but Iceland were impressive last time out. It could go either way, with a narrow victory certainly a possibility, but we are struggling to separate them here and have ultimately settled on a low-scoring draw.

Romania vs. Lithuania (Monday, 7.45pm)

Romania welcome Lithuania to the home of FCSB in Bucharest for a UEFA Nations League clash on Monday night.

The hosts made the perfect start to the campaign, dispatching second-seeds Kosovo convincingly away from home, while Lithuania were disappointingly beaten at home by Cyprus.

We say: Romania 3-0 Lithuania


Romania were famed more for their defensive solidity under Iordanescu, but it was their attacking play that caught the eye in Pristina, and Lithuania could face a similar wrath here.

The visitors slumped to a poor home defeat to open the campaign and there is nothing to suggest that they can spring a huge surprise here to lift themselves off the bottom of the standings.
