It’s time for another round of weekend betting picks from Realgamblinguy.com and we have identified four of the big games this weekend that seem like pretty good plays. It’s a national football weekend and that means we get to see several very important games in both Nations League and the WC 2022 qualifications.
Best bet of the weekend is an Asian in Sweden’s game, while we also find some value in France, Luxembourg and hopefully an entertaining bronze medal match between Belgium and Italy. Join us below for all betting picks this weekend!
1. Sweden v. Kosovo (09/10/21 – 18:00 CET)
Pick: Sweden -1.5 Asian @ odds 1.98 on Expekt
A very important game for Sweden in Group B of the Europe WC qualification goes down on Saturday at Friends Arena. Sweden will have roughly 50.000 fans attending the game and this is a must win for them. Kosovo is already out of the WC race and Sweden still holds everything in their own hands when it comes to winning the group.
Sweden is a very good team these days, with a great attacking trio of Forsberg (Leipzig), Kulusevski (Juventus) and Isak (Sociedad). There is not a single position that Kosovo holds an advantage over Sweden and I think this could end 3/4-0 for sure. Best bet of the weekend according to me!

2. Luxembourg v. Serbia (09/10/21 – 20:45 CET)
Pick: BTTS @ odds 1.98 on Expekt
A very much improved Luxembourg side hosts a strong Serbian side on Saturday and as always, the bookmakers underestimate the little home nation. Luxembourg actually scored and came close to getting something from the away game against the serbs, but fell short in the end and lost 4-1.
Luxembourg is one of the most improved teams in the world over the last few years and they are truly not a punching bag anymore. To get almost even money on BTTS here seems way too good not to touch. Serbia will obviously get at least one goal, but Luxembourg should have a great chance of maybe even getting a point here. A great bet!
3. Italy v. Belgium (10/10/21 – 15:00 CET)
Pick: Over 2.5 Goals @ odds 1.96 on Expekt
A truly pointless game goes down on Sunday afternoon as the two footballing giants Italy and Belgium play for a bronze medal in the Nations League. Belgium is usually a free-scoring team and Italy is more of a defensive side – which is negative for this bet. But, I am basing this bet on the fact that none of these nations will truly care about this medal, and this will lead to a goalfest I think.
I expect both teams to rest a lot of players but I also fully expect a very entertaining game for the fans with loads of goals. We get a very juicy price on O 2.5 here and that seems like the most logical bet given the circumstances of not knowing if any of the nations care. One thing’s for sure though, none of these teams wants to see any sort of OT here.

4. Spain v. France (10/10/21 – 20:45 CET)
Pick: France Lifts Trophy @ odds 1.78 on Expekt
The final of the Nations League goes down between Spain and France – there is only one bet that looks good here in my opinion – France to lift the trophy. Spain impressed away against Italy in the semifinals and looked sharp, but they still conceded and almost played 2-2 even though Italy was one man down all second half.
We also got to see in the semifinals how much France cares about this trophy, rallying back from a 2-0 deficit to complete the 2-3 comeback in the dying minutes of the game. Mbappe and Benzema looked hungry and France’s overall squad is way sharper than Spains. France will get the win here, a real solid bet to close out the weekend.
