Portugal vs Wales Prediction, Betting Tips and Stats

Our Portugal vs Wales prediction is over 9.5 corners at 5/6, a 64% chance on our numbers against the 55% the price implies.

Portugal are 1.20 to win and that is about right, so the result is not where the value is. Both sides win a shade under six corners a game, and a side defending against a 79% favourite tends to concede territory and corners rather than chances.

Portugal vs Wales Prediction

Over 9.5 corners, 5/6. The reasoning, the record behind it and the implied probability are all in the tips section below, and every selection on this page carries our own percentage beside the bookmaker’s.

What We Are Not Backing, and Why

The markets we looked at and left alone, with the numbers, because a preview that only tells you what to back is hiding half the work.

  • Portugal to win at 1.20. Stripping the margin out of 1.20, 7.00 and 13.00 gives Portugal 79.1%, the draw 13.6% and Wales 7.3%. We make Portugal about the same. There is no gap to bet into.
  • Wales +2 on the Asian handicap. It is the popular pick this week, and the trend behind it — Wales covering +2 in nineteen of their last twenty — is drawn almost entirely from matches against League C and D opposition. Portugal have beaten Wales in both previous meetings without conceding.
  • Portugal 1-0 at 7.00. Our goal model makes 1-1 and 1-0 the two likeliest scores, but it also puts Portugal at 45% to win against the market’s 79%. When a model disagrees with the price by thirty-four points the model is usually wrong, and here it is: Wales’s goal averages are inflated by the standard of opposition they have faced. We would rather publish that than dress it up.

 

The fouls markets are the ones our tackles and fouls tips are built on. Corner selections sit alongside the rest of our value bets.

Team News and Who Is Actually Available

We do not publish a predicted eleven. Nobody knows one this far out and a guess dressed as team news helps no one. What we publish instead is who the bookmaker has priced, which is a harder signal: bet365 will not put a price on a player who cannot feature, and they have money riding on being right.

20 Portugal players and 18 Wales players carry prices on this fixture. Every one of them appears in the tables below. Anyone not priced has been stripped out.

Portugal vs Wales Corners

Portugal win 5.85 corners a game and Wales 5.9, with 2.8 and 3.35 of those in the first half. Portugal take 16.3 shots a game to Wales’s 13.65, and shot volume is what drives corner counts. The line is 9.5 and we make 10 or more a 64% chance against the 55% implied by 5/6.
