THE PREDICTION
Republic of Ireland put in a valiant effort vs Serbia, but despite taking the lead Stephen Kenny’s side ultimately fell to a 3-2 defeat in their opening Group A encounter. Scoring twice in Serbia will have given Kenny’s men confidence however and they’ll be looking to take that positive into this home clash with Luxembourg. The visitors prepared for this encounter by undertaking a friendly match against Qatar this past Wednesday, which they lost 1-0. Whilst Luxembourg have proven themselves as capable of causing a surprise away from home in the past, after beating Montenegro 1-2 last October in the UEFA Nations League, Republic of Ireland boast a vastly superior squad in terms of ability and strength in depth. With home advantage also in their favour, a comprehensive Republic or Ireland triumph by at least two clear goals looks very much on the cards.
