Northern Ireland vs Belarus Prediction 27 May 2016

Northern Ireland had just magnificent spell in the Euro-2016 qualifiers. They played in the group F against Romania, Hungary, Finland, Faroe Islands and Greece. On top of that, they won 6 games, tied 3 and lost only 1 with 16:8 goal difference. This way, Northern Ireland occupied 1^st spot in the group with 21 points earned. We should mention they are currently on 10 game unbeaten streak since 25 March 2015. In addition, 1^st place in the Euro qualifiers group seems like very impressive result for a team like Northern Ireland, even considering they did not face top-opponents.

Belarus national team in team failed to proceed to the final tournament in France quite predictably. Unlike their opponents they had one top-side Spain national team and two solid opponents, Slovakia and Ukraine. This way, Belarus took 4^th position in the group C. they won 3 games, tied 2 and lost 5 ones. Notably, they are currently on 5-game undefeated streak. After loss to Ukraine, they managed to beat Luxembourg and Slovakia and tied Macedonia, Armenia and Montenegro.

It is the first head-to-head between the two sides. Although the visitors failed to proceed to the final tournament they tend to play better against favorites. And they recorded 5 clean-sheets straight. Still the hosts are way more skillful team.
