Friday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me continue to focus on the Nations League, and I’ve highlighted another goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Moldova vs Kazakhstan
🇪🇺 Nations League
⏰ Friday 13 September, 19:45
Goals are a possibility in Chisinau on Friday night as Moldova hosts Kazakhstan in Nations League C Group 3.
Moldova began the campaign with a 2-0 loss to runaway group leaders Slovakia, before taking four points from their next two clashes at home to the Faroe Islands and away in Kazakhstan.
However, Lilian Popescu’s hosts suffered a 0-4 loss at home to Slovakia last time out, leaving them in third position in League C Group 3, behind second-placed Faroes on goal difference.
Kazakhstan, on the other hand, are still winless in League C Group 3 having picked up just two points across their opening four clashes.
The Hawks have drawn home and away to the Faroe Islands, but sandwiched between those two draws are a pair of 1-2 defeats away to Slovakia and at home to Moldova.

Bet of the Day
With Slovakia all but guaranteed top spot in the group and only two points separating the other three nations, both sides know a win is critical in order to secure second place and avoid the relegation places, which should lead to an open encounter.
Both Teams to Score has paid out in all four (100%) of Kazakhstan’s group stage clashes, whilst two of Moldova’s last three have delivered goals at both ends – including a 1-2 success in the reverse fixture in Astana last month – and I’m backing that trend to continue in Chisinau on Friday night.
- Both Teams to Score
