5 Handicap Bets for Tuesday's Internationals - 12/10/21

We’ve only just caught our breaths back from the last time these two met less than a month ago, with England romping to 4-0 victory over Hungary, silencing the unsavoury home crowd in the process.

A victory could see Gareth Southgate’s side progress, should other results go their way and with the big guns set to return after sitting out the Andorra victory, things could get a little messy for the Hungarian defence.

Bonfire night may still be a month away, but expect fireworks in North London on Tuesday night, with a point-to-prove England good money for a -2 handicap at insert odds.

Northern Ireland will be looking for their first win against Bulgaria since 1979 when they travel to Sofia with outside hopes of sneaking into the playoff spots.

They will have to win their remaining World Cup Qualifiers, should they have any chance of catching the Swiss, starting with this clash against perennial bogey side Bulgaria. We’re backing them to buck their Bulgarian trend in Sofia, with a Northern Ireland -1 handicap at 11/2 catching the eye.

What a story there is developing in Group B, with Sweden in pole position to qualify for the 2022 World Cup as winners ahead of Nations League runners-up, Spain.

Having beaten La Roja in the previous international break, Sweden can take a gigantic step towards securing their spot at the World Cup finals with a statement victory over fellow qualification hopefuls Greece.

Looking to avenge their 2-1 defeat to the Mediterranean nation last month, a buoyant Sweden in front of a bouncing full crowd in Stockholm should make light work of a -2 handicap at 6/1.

Unbeaten in World Cup qualification this cycle, it’s unlikely Portugal will face defeat at all in their remaining matches and they will be looking to extend their lead as Group A leaders with a victory against Luxembourg.

The central European nation may have been the surprise package in Group A, yet they are unlikely to catch Serbia in second, meaning the wait for an elusive World Cup appearance goes on.

Expect a comfortable Portugal victory as they target their place at a sixth consecutive finals, making a -4 handicap an ambitious but not impossible bet at 3/1.

Separated by a stretch of water in the Norwegian Sea, Scotland vs the Faroe Islands is essentially a derby for the pair and unlike their matches against England, this may be one the Tartan Army can win.

A 4-0 triumph over the Faroe Islands in March was Scotland’s first win of qualification and they’ll travel to Tórshavn with outside hopes of creeping into the playoff spots. Expect an in-form Scotland side to go big here, with a -3 handicap at 11/2 our tip for this one.
