Belarus vs Finland Prediction

Finland hosts Belarus on 6 October 2026 at 21:45 in UEFA Nations League Group B. Finland demolished San Marino 7–0 away in round one, the largest away victory in the nation's history. Joël Pohjanpalo scored a hat-trick, Leo Välja added two goals and an assist, and debutant Adrian Svanbäck contributed one goal and two assists. Finland plays at home where they won two of their last three matches, including a 2–1 victory over Poland. Belarus lost 0–2 to Albania in their opener, creating only two shots on target and posting an expected goals figure of 0.61. Coach Viktor Goncharenko has rotated his squad after defensive injuries ruled out Gleb Shevchenko and Vladislav Malkevich, promoting Anton Lukashov, Yegor Parkhomenko, and Alexander Svirepa. Belarus have not won an official match in two years, though they won three of four friendlies this year. Finland enjoy the home advantage while Belarus play their second consecutive away fixture.

Form and H2H

Finland beat Belarus 2–0 in June 2018. The teams drew 0–0 on 29 September 2026, their most recent meeting. Finland's profit trends show a loss of 3.42 points on home wins but a gain of 12.74 on draws. Belarus have lost 3.91 points on away wins and 5.72 on draws, though they gained 4.99 points on away losses. Finland's depth allows manager Jakob Friis to rotate without sacrificing quality. Glen Kamara and Kaan Kairinen return to midfield, while several players including Kamara remained unused against San Marino. Belarus must rebuild after their opening defeat and face a Finnish side that typically plays aggressively at home.
