Key stats

• Israel are unbeaten in the previous nine international matches between these teams (W6 D3).
• Israel have lost their last three World Cup qualifying matches.
• Israel have kept only one clean sheet in their last 13 World Cup qualifying matches.

Israel vs Moldova prediction

Israel come into this one on the back of a goalless draw with a poor Lithuania side in Vilnius in their most recent outing, a few days ago. They have been struggling for a while in terms of their performance level and they sit nine points behind Italy, 12 below Norway in Group I of UEFA qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

In UEFA EURO 2024 qualifying, Moldova performed well as they defeated Poland and narrowly missed out on a top two finish. They have struggled badly in this qualifying campaign, though, with just one point collected from their seven matches in Group I thus far.

Moldova have conceded 28 goals in their seven matches, too, and, despite not having home advantage as well as their poor form, Israel are the firm favourites.
