Estonia and Wales will trade tackles in a Group E 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier on Monday.

The home side come into the game on the back of a morale-boosting 2-0 home win over Belarus on Friday. Erik Sorga and Sergei Zenjov scored second-half goals to guide the Sinisärgid to all three points.

Wales played out a 2-2 draw away to the Czech Republic. Aaron Ramsey and Daniel James scored in either half to help the Dragons leave Prague with a point.

The draw meant Wales remained in third place, having garnered eight points from five matches. Estonia are in fourth place on four points and need a victory to maintain their slim hopes of securing a playoff spot.


Estonia vs Wales Head-to-Head

This will be only the fourth meeting between the two sides and Estonia are yet to register a victory against Wales. The visitors have two wins to their name, while one previous match ended in a share of the spoils.

The draw came in their most recent meeting, a goalless draw in the first leg in September.

The hosts returned to winning ways on Friday after going three games without a win. Wales have won just one of their last six matches.
