Following their hard fought away 0-0 draw against group leaders Turkey, Wales face Iceland at home in their final match in the group.
Head coach Craig Bellamy insists Wales will ignore results elsewhere as they aim for an improbable Nations League promotion in Tuesday’s final group game against Iceland.
Turkey are top of Group B4 with 11 points, while Wales are in second place on nine points and Iceland third on seven.
To win the group and secure their return to the top tier, Wales must beat Iceland at Cardiff City Stadium and hope Turkey lose in Montenegro.
A draw for Turkey in Montenegro could open the door for Wales, but they would need to beat Iceland by four goals.
Failing that, and unless they lose to Iceland, Wales will face a Nations League promotion play-off in March, meaning their World Cup qualifying campaign would be pushed back to June or September next year.
“Honestly, I don't know about the group – all I care about is winning this game. That's the honest truth,” Bellamy said.
I’m hoping that Wales will win 2-1, but I’m expecting that the Turks will prevail in Montenegro.
