Northern Ireland host Slovakia in Friday’s World Cup qualifier, and you can back our betting tips with this 25/1 bet builder.
It’s a massive game for Michael O’Neill and his Northern Ireland side in Group A of Europe’s World Cup qualification.
Having lost 3-1 to Germany, they beat Luxembourg by the same scoreline to put them second in the group after two games.
Slovakia, meanwhile, also beat Luxembourg and shocked Germany 2-0 to put themselves top.
A victory on home turf could therefore see Northern Ireland move level with Slovakia ahead of tough games against Germany.
There have been five meetings between Northern Ireland and Slovakia over the years, with three Slovakian wins, one draw and one win for Northern Ireland.
Looking ahead to this one, Northern Ireland are 13/8 favourites with football betting sites, while Slovakia are priced at around 2/1.

Northern Ireland Vs Slovakia Betting Tips
- Both Teams To Score – YES @ 1/1
- Full Time Result – Northern Ireland @ 13/8
- Shea Charles To Score Any Time @ 8/1
Both Teams To Score – YES @ 1/1
Our first pick of this 25/1 treble is backing both teams to score.
Northern Ireland have both scored and conceded four goals, the most of anyone in Group A.
They know where the goal is, but have struggled to keep teams out so far.
Slovakia have scored three thus far, and will pose plenty of threat.
Full Time Result – Northern Ireland @ 13/8
We think this is a tough one to call, but are putting our faith in Michael O’Neill’s side on home soil.
Northern Ireland look as strong as they have done for many years, and have some real quality coming through now.
It won’t be easy, but we predict a hard-fought victory for the home side.
Shea Charles To Score Any Time @ 8/1
And finally, Shea Charles is our any time scorer pick.
Charles became the youngest Northern Ireland captain in history last year, at just 21.
The Southampton midfielder is not known for his goal scoring, but netted for the Saints against Liverpool at Anfield recently.
And he grabbed his first senior international goal against Luxembourg a month ago.
They say things often come in threes, so we reckon he’s due one more on Friday night.
