To decide their UEFA Nations League fate for the 2022-23 season, international minnows Moldova and Kazakhstan meet in Chisinau on Thursday.
The competition's first two-legged 'play-outs' will select which nation will stay in League C and which is consigned to Europe's bottom tier.
We say: Moldova 0-1 Kazakhstan
Neither side is used to winning, even in the modest environs of League C, so the first leg could well be an attritional affair decided by a single goal.
The visitors are best placed to take a lead back home for next Tuesday's return, given their higher standing and past results against some of Europe's mid-ranking nations.

To decide their UEFA Nations League fate for the 2022-23 season, international minnows Estonia and Cyprus meet in Tallinn on Thursday.
The competition's first two-legged 'play-outs' will select which nation will stay in League C and which is consigned to Europe's bottom tier.
We say: Estonia 1-1 Cyprus
Neither nation is accustomed to taking the initiative, given their lowly status and sparse successes, so a tentative first leg may end all-square.
Both teams are prone to capitulate under pressure though, so the likeliest outcome may be a score draw - leaving the tie finely balanced before next week's decider.
