Second-placed Romania will host third-placed Cyprus in Group H in the fourth round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers at the Arena Nationala on Tuesday.
Romania suffered their second defeat in qualifying on Saturday with a 2-1 loss to Austria in Vienna. They have now lost to their two main rivals in the battle for the top two places in Group H, including a defeat to Bosnia in the first round in March.
Cyprus, on the other hand, were not involved in World Cup qualifying this week and instead played a friendly match against Bulgaria, which ended in a 2-2 draw.
Romania - Cyprus Betting Tips: Romania to Win
Despite defeats against two direct rivals in Bosnia and Austria in the first rounds of World Cup qualifying, Romania go into their fourth Group H match against Cyprus as clear favourites. The Cypriots may have beaten San Marino in their first group match, but that does not change the fact that Romania have been clearly superior in head-to-head matches in recent years. The Romanians defeated Cyprus twice in the UEFA Nations League last year - 4-1 and 3-0. We bet on a win for Romania.
