Hungary vs Finland prediction

Hungary come into this one on the back of a goalless draw with Greece after a slender 1-0 defeat of Slovenia in the March international break. They missed out on a UEFA playoff spot for the FIFA World Cup due to a dramatic 3-2 loss to Ireland in November.

They now face a Finland side that, coached by Jacob Friis, have struggled for a while. The Scandinavians defeated New Zealand and then drew with Cape Verde in a FIFA Series tournament in March before a 4-0 loss to Germany in Mainz.

Finland have only beaten New Zealand, Andorra and Lithuania since last summer and so backing a Hungarian victory is a decent bet for this one.
