In my opinion Slovakia is clear favorite of today's match up and they should be able to make comfortable win with at least two/three goals margin. -1.5 AH looks like very smart bet here.

I see big difference between both teams in quality, ambitions and potential. Slovakia have so many high quality players in their squad like Skriniar from Inter, Lobotka from Napoli or Duda from Koln (5 goals in last 4 matches for Slovakia !). It's huge difference in comparison to the Kazakhstan squad.

Slovakia have been relegated from Group B to Group C, but is not big shame because they faced much stronger teams than Belarus. In World Cup qualies they finished at third place, but they produced some decent results like away draw against strong Croatia. Now they have in group Kazakhstan, Belarus and Azerbaijan so they have to win this group without any excuses. Slovakia started in good style (away win 1:0 against Belarus) and they wants to go with momentum today front of home crowd. Kazakhstan won first match at home against Azerbaijan, but that wasn't deserved result at all as Kazakhstan goalkeeper Shatskyi received Man of the match award.

Kazakhstan have really serious squad problems before today's match, they coming to this game without their captain and key central midfielder Tagybergen (recorded assist in last game). In addition to that they are without many experienced players in national team like defenders Logvinenko (57 matches), Beysebekov (37 matches) or Shomko (46 matches), midfielders Zaynutdinov, Zhukov, Nurgaliyev or Muzhikov (all of them played +20 matches) or strikers Shchyotkin (35 matches) and Murtazayev (25 matches). It's huge blow for the team and should have very bad impact on their performance today.

Slovakia don't have problems with creativity - they scored more than one goal in 5 of last 8 matches. Also looked solid at the back in last two matches against Finland and Belarus (two clean sheets). On the other hand Kazakhstan in WC qualies conceded 20 goals in 8 matches. It's really hard to trust them, especially with depleted squad.

For me is hard to imagine any other result than comfortable Slovakian team win.

在我看来，斯洛伐克显然是今天比赛的热门，他们应该能够以至少两/三球的优势轻松取胜。

让球胜平在这里看起来是非常明智的选择。

我看到两支球队在实力、野心和潜力方面存在很大差异。斯洛伐克的阵容中有很多实力很强的球员，例如国际米兰的什克里尼亚尔、那不勒斯的洛博特卡或科隆的杜达（斯洛伐克在过去 4 场比赛中打入 5 球！）。与哈萨克斯坦队相比，这是巨大的差异。

斯洛伐克已经从 B 组降级到 C 组，但这并不丢人，因为他们面对的球队比白俄罗斯强得多。在世界杯预选赛中，他们获得了第三名，但他们取得了一些不错的成绩，比如客场战平强大的克罗地亚。现在他们分到了哈萨克斯坦、白俄罗斯和阿塞拜疆的小组，所以他们必须毫无理由地赢得这个小组第一。斯洛伐克开局状态良好（客场 1:0 战胜白俄罗斯），他们希望在今天主场迎战他们。哈萨克斯坦赢了主场对阵阿塞拜疆的第一场比赛，但这根本不是应得的结果，因为哈萨克斯坦门将沙茨基获得了最佳球员。

哈萨克斯坦队在今天的比赛之前确实存在严重的阵容问题，他们缺少了队长和关键中场球员塔吉伯根（上一场比赛的助攻）的情况下参加了这场比赛。除此之外，他们在国家队中也没有很多经验丰富的球员，比如后卫洛维年科（57场比赛）、贝谢别科夫（37场比赛）或肖姆科（46场比赛），中场球员扎努迪诺夫、朱可夫、努尔加利耶夫或穆日科夫（他们都打了+20场比赛）或前锋 Shchyotkin（35 场比赛）和 Murtazayev（25 场比赛）。这对球队来说是一个巨大的打击，应该会对他们今天的表现产生非常糟糕的影响。

斯洛伐克在创造力方面没有问题——他们在过去 8 场比赛中有 5 场打进了超过 1 个进球。在最近两场对阵芬兰和白俄罗斯的比赛中（两场不失球），他的后卫也很稳定。另一方面，哈萨克斯坦在世界杯格赛中丢了 20 球8场比赛进球。真的很难相信他们，尤其是在球队已经耗尽的情况下。

对我来说，除了斯洛伐克队大胜之外，很难想象任何其他结果。
