We said: Wales 1-2 Ukraine (A.E.T)

 Not a single side has managed to get the better of Ukraine during qualification for the 2022 World Cup, and we do not anticipate that streak ending here, even when taking into account the raft of top Welsh players who will break out of the cotton wool for this game. Scotland had no answer to the visitors' attacking flair in midweek, and while Page's refreshed side will expect to hold out for 90 minutes, a steadfast Ukraine outfit can harness all of their resilience to clinch one of the final spots at the World Cup.
