Red Dragons To Roar Into Last 16

We’ve been saying from the outset that Russia have done nothing to justify the pre-tournament expectation that they will be a force in Group B. Nothing has happened to change that view, yet Slutsky’s men bemusingly find themselves as favourites again on Monday.

Wales are therefore a great price at 2/1 but we should really take the 10/3 (Skybet) available on the Red Dragons winning to nil.

Coleman’s players stormed through qualification with seven clean sheets in 10 outings and we should expect a return to that style of victory here.

They were too strong for Slovakia who were in turn too clinical for Russia. Logic would suggest that Wales can storm into the knock-out phase with six points.
