Belarus vs Israel Prediction: The home team is having a tough time

Prediction for the match between Belarus and Israel, which will take place on June 16. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Belarus has never qualified for a major international tournament in their history, but recently came close to qualifying for Euro 2020 but lost in the semi-finals of the League of Nations. The Red-Green failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, losing seven of eight games, and now they are trying to qualify for Euro 2024, but their chances of a positive outcome are next to nil. In the opening game, the team got three unanswered goals from the Swiss in the 30th minute before being beaten (0:5). In the second round, the Belarusians offered decent resistance to the Romanians but lost 1:2.

The last time Israel made it to a major international tournament was in 1970 when the team made it to the world championships. The Blues and Whites have never played in continental games, and they came closest in 2000 when they made it to the knockout stages but lost with a score of 0:5 and 0:3 in both head-to-head encounters by the Danes. But in qualifying for Euro 2024, the Israelis ended up in a manageable group where they could fight for at least second place. At the same time, their qualifying debut was highly unsuccessful. In the opening game, they drew 1:1 with Kosovo before losing to Switzerland 0:3.

The Israel national team is in a very comfortable group for the Euro 2024 qualifiers, where they have every chance of clinging to a second playoff spot. Still, an unsuccessful qualification debut has made life much more difficult for the Whites and Blues. Meanwhile, the situation does not look hopeless, so they should get three points without too much trouble against the modest Belarusians. Georgy Kondratyev's charges are having a tough time; they've lost nine of their last ten games in the qualifiers, so their chances of success are minimal.

The Israeli team is among the most open and attacking teams in the European qualifying. Almost all matches involving them are productive and spectacular. In just ten previous encounters, they have scored and conceded a combined total of 37 goals (3.70 on average per game), which is very high for such a long distance, while in nine cases, the bookmakers' total over has been reached in this stretch.
