Looking ahead to World Cup qualifiers in September – Part 2

Europe: Group Two

This is a difficult group to read. OK, Luxembourg and Moldova have as much chance of qualifying as I have of flying to the moon; it’s just that the rest don’t seem all that keen either.

Greece and Switzerland both have 13 points, with Latvia on 10 and Israel on nine. The top two play in Basel on September 5th before the Greeks finish off with games against Moldova, Latvia and Luxembourg. On that basis they should probably qualify outright, leaving Israel and Switzerland to fight it out for a play-off place.

Forthcoming fixtures:

September 5th

Moldova - Luxembourg

Switzerland - Greece

Israel - Latvia


September 9th

Israel - Luxembourg

Moldova - Greece

Latvia - Switzerland
