World Cup Qualification 2026: Liechtenstein-Wales, the likely lineups

On Saturday at 6 p.m. at the Rheinpark Stadion in Vaduz, Liechtenstein receives Wales in the penultimate day of Group J of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The hosts, still out of goals and points, will try to avoid a seventh consecutive defeat, while the guests go in the hunt for three crucial points in view of the play-offs.

Funfstuck should rely on a shrewd 3-5-2: Luchingher, Hasler and Sele in the middle of the field, with Wolfinger and Zund occupying the outside lanes, while Pizzi and Notaro will make up the offensive pair.

Bellamy faces several heavy absences: out with injuries are Aaron Ramsey, Ben Davies and Kieffer Moore, while Harry Wilson is disqualified. Leading the offensive department will be Harris, supported by Ampadu, Koumas, James and Brooks in midfield. Defense headed by Rodon, Darlow between the posts.
