    Venue - Cardiff City Stadium
    Date - Monday, 13 October 2025
    Kick off - 19:45

    In many respects, the day of reckoning for Craig Bellamy’s Wales squad - hopefully, there won’t be too many scars from last week’s chastening defeat by England.

    With just two matches remaining for Wales after tonight, every point — and every goal — could prove decisive in the battle for automatic qualification.

    Begium’s goalless draw with North Macedonia has blown the Group wide open, meaning Wales' destiny is very much in their own hands. Three wins from three - it sounds so simple, doesn't it? - would guarantee them a spot at the tournament next summer.

    Before tonight’s fixtures, the Group J table looks like this:

    1. North Macedonia – P6 W3 D3 L0 GD +9 Pts 12

    2. Belgium – P5 W3 D2 L0 GD +13 Pts 11

    3. Wales – P5 W3 D1 L1 GD +5 Pts 10

    4. Kazakhstan – P6 W2 D0 L4 GD -4 Pts 6

    5. Liechtenstein – P6 W0 D0 L6 GD -23 Pts 0

    The top team qualifies automatically for the World Cup, while the runner-up goes into the play-offs.

    Below are the last 5 matches and results for both Wales and Belgium:

    Wales
    • 10/9: at England (Loss, 3–0)
    • 9/9: vs Canada (Loss, 1–0)
    • 9/4: at Kazakhstan (Win, 1–0)
    • 6/9: vs Belgium (Loss, 4–3)
    • 6/6: vs Liechtenstein (Win, 3–0)
    Belgium
    • 10/10: vs Macedonia (Draw, 0–0)
    • 9/7: vs Kazakhstan (Win, 6–0)
    • 9/4: at Liechtenstein (Win, 6–0)
    • 6/9: at Wales (Win, 4–3)
    • 6/6: at Macedonia (Draw, 1–1)

    Ben Davies is set to become Wales men's latest centurion with manager Craig Bellamy predicting a big future off the field for the "beyond impressive" Tottenham Hotspur defender.

    The former Swansea City player's 100th cap will come when he leads Wales against Belgium in Monday's crucial World Cup qualifier against Belgium in Cardiff this evening.

    Davies, 32, will join former team-mates Gareth Bale, Chris Gunter and Wayne Hennessey in reaching that mark with Bale's 111-men's Wales cap record in Davies' sights.
