The Stuff of Dreams: Accumulator Tip for March 22nd

Prepare for sensational football action on Saturday across national teams as they battle for a chance in the 2026 World Cup. Norway will play their first game of the year against Moldova while Wales will take on Kazakhstan and Larne will play their final game of the season against Glenavon as the Northern Ireland Premiership nears its end. Let us analyze the teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion on the upcoming game.

Moldova vs Norway

Norway will start their 2026 World Cup qualification with a trip to Moldova in their opening group fixture on Saturday. Moldova is trying to qualify for its first-ever major tournament and avoid a third consecutive World Cup qualifier, in which case it will finish at the bottom of the group. Norway looks like the better team on paper with players like City’s Haaland, Arsenals Martin Odegaard, and other amazing players available for the game. Haaland is Norway's all-time top scorer with 38 goals from 39 games played and he will lead the attack for Norway against Moldova on Saturday. 

• Bet: first half away win

Wales vs Kazakhstan

Wales will be aiming for back-to-back World Cup appearances as they welcome Kazakhstan to Cardiff City Stadium. Wales remains unbeaten in their last 6 games with manager Craig Bellamy enjoying an amazing start to his managerial career at the national level. Kazakhstan on the other hand had a bad 2024, losing seven of their last 8 games with 5 consecutive defeats. Wales are the better team and we think they’ll get the win here. 

• Bet: 1X & TU 3.5 goals

Glenavon vs Larne

The Glens will take on Larne at Mourneview Park for the last league game of the season. Glenavon is currently in 10th place in the league and they’ll have to fight for their place next season in the relegation play-off zone. Larne on the other hand have made it to the championship round regardless of the outcome of this game and we think they’ll have a great time. A victory or a draw for Larne is our best bet.
