NORTHERN IRELAND v WALES MATCH PREVIEW I
Northern Ireland are favourites to beat Wales in Tuesday's friendly at Windsor Park.
Lawrie Sanchez's men have seven points from four games in qualification for Euro 2008 and are clearly on a sharp upward curve.
That contrasts with Wales, who sit sixth in Group D with just three points from three games so, in theory, the hosts are worth a bet.
However, Northern Ireland are riddled with injuries, with David Healy - their record goalscorer - probably the biggest loss.
There's also the fact that Wales took four points off Northern Ireland in the last World Cup qualifiers which included a 3-2 win for the Welsh in Belfast.
Wales were in terrible form at the time having failed to win a competitive game in 32 months and their opener from Simon Davies was the first goal they'd scored in 491 minutes of football.
John Toshack's men are 9/5 for a repeat while Northern Ireland are 6/4 to prevail but neither price appeals.
