Russia to Score 2+
Russia will aim to cement their position at the top of Group H when they welcome Cyprus in World Cup qualifying.

Cyprus, meanwhile, cannot qualify for next year's World Cup after winning just one of their opening eight group fixtures.
The Russians ran out 2-0 winners in September's reverse fixture and the Cypriots could suffer a similar fate at the Gazprom Arena on Thursday evening.
Spain to Score 2+
Spain travel to Greece on Thursday night knowing they still have plenty of work to do if they are to secure top spot in World Cup qualifying Group B.
Luis Enrique's side trail section leaders Sweden by two points and need to win here to keep pace ahead of Sunday's potential pool decider between the pair.
The Greeks have been revived under boss John van ‘t Schip but they will have to put Spain to the sword to have any chance of securing a play-off berth.
La Roja have recorded just one clean sheet across their last nine road trips, so they may need to strike twice to get the better of Greece.
Portugal to Score 2+
Portugal will be looking to reclaim top spot in Group A when they lock horns with the Republic of Ireland in Dublin.
Fernando Santos' side sit second, a point behind Serbia, with this in game in hand presenting the Portuguese with an opportunity to move to the summit.
To their credit, Ireland have demonstrated marked improvement in recent months, but Stephen Kenny and co should expect little respite from a star-studded Selecao side.
The Iberians have scored a minimum of three goals in each of their last four international assignments and should have too much firepower for an Irish team in a period of transition.
Romania to Score 2+
Romania have put themselves in the driving seat for second place Group J and will have earmarked this fixture with Iceland as one where three points are crucial if they are to participate in the play-offs.
Mirel Radoi's men are embroiled in a fiercely competitive scrap for second spot but something has to give when chasing pack Armenia and North Macedonia meet on Thursday night.
The Tricolorii have taken 10 points from the last 15 on offer in Group J, while their Nordic guests have triumphed in just three of their last 16 international outings.
Romania won 2-0 in Reykjavík just over two months ago and they look a solid bet to repeat the feat in Bucharest on Thursday night.
