18/1 fourfold on Wales vs Finland and other UEFA European Championship Qualification and International Friendlies specials

Ahead of the upcoming international friendlies and European Championship qualifying play-offs, CopyBet brand ambassador and former Republic of Ireland goalkeeper Shay Given has shared his thoughts on how some of the matches might go.

Check out his tips below and if you agree with his selections you can back them in an 18/1 ACCA!

Shay's Prediction: Wales 2-0 Finland

Thu 21 Mar, 19:45

17/20
Back Wales to win

A huge game for both nations of course and I fancy that home advantage in Cardiff will be a massive factor for Wales.

Wales are unbeaten in six games and they'll bring that confidence into this match which is vitally important. Robert Page's side have a few players in good form with the likes of Harry Wilson and Brennan Johnson doing well for their clubs and I think they'll be too strong for Finland.

Shay's Prediction: Republic of Ireland 1-0 Belgium

Sat 23 Mar, 17:00

2/1

John O'Shea is in temporary charge for the next two games and it's a great opportunity for him to experience in the role. I'd love him to get a result in this one and they might have a chance with both Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku out for Belgium.

There are a lot of exciting young players coming through for Ireland like Sammie Szmodics and Evan Ferguson and they'll get their chance to shine in this one.

Shay's Prediction: England 2-1 Brazil

Sat 23 Mar, 19:00

77/100
Back England to win
place a bet

Even though it's a friendly this still very much has the feel of a big game. Two heavyweights of international football going head to head at Wembley.

England are obviously preparing for the Euros and Brazil are getting ready for the Copa America, so it's an important fixture for both to see where they're at and get a sense for the team's they might select in their opening games of the tournaments.

I'm backing England to edge it in an entertaining match.

Shay's Prediction: France 2-0 Germany

Sat 23 Mar, 20:00

3/4
Back France to win
place a bet

Another really exciting looking game on paper. Two big nations battling it out and with France being ranked number two in the world right now, they will understandably be favourites.

Julian Nagelsmann is still trying to figure out his strongest team for Germany and this'll be a test for them. As the hosts of the Euros there's a bit of pressure on them to perform well but I think France will win this match.
