Ampadu is such an important part of the way Wales play out from the back. Without him, the back three system wouldn’t work as it’s likely they wouldn’t be able to move through transition.

Meanwhile, Wales are unbeaten in their last five competitive matches and have won all of their last three games against Belarus (all competitions). They should claim victory tonight.

Not only are Belarus struggling to score goals, they are leaking them at the back too. They have conceded two or more goals in eight of their last 10 World Cup qualifiers.
21'
The omens are good for Wales this evening. Belarus have lost all of their last six World Cup qualifiers. What’s more, they have failed to find the back of the net in five of those six games.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Wales 2 (20 mins - Neco Williams) Belarus 0. It's a second and Wales are cruising here! The shot from Williams was a tame one, but Chernik made a mess of it and the ball ended up in the back of the Belarus net. Wales have a two-goal cushion here after just 20 minutes of this match!

Moore scored the winner for Wales in their last World Cup qualifier against Estonia in October. He is a big miss this evening. Without Moore, Wales lack purpose in attack.

Kieffer Moore is missing for Wales this evening and that is a big blow to their chances. The imposing frontman is an important part of the way they play in the attacking third.

The Wales team tonight!

Belarus are bottom of Group E with six defeats from seven matches. They made Wales work hard for three points in the reverse fixture in the group, though, only losing 3-2.
12'
This is a match that Wales should win. They certainly have the individual quality to see off Belarus in front of their own supporters. This could be a momentous evening for the national team.
11'
Wales have two matches to match or better Czech Republic's tally from their final qualifier to secure second place in Group E. Both are locked on 11 points but Czech Republic only have one qualifier left, albeit against Estonia.

ROBERTS... just wide! That was a big chance for Wales to double their early advantage, but Roberts sends his shot wide of the far post after a Bale long throw-in was knocked on by Ramsey.

This has been an excellent start by Wales. What is impressive is that they are still pressing even though they have the early lead. They want to make this emphatic.

Well, what a start by Wales. They began on the front foot and they have made that early pressure counter. That's exactly what Page would have wanted from his players!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Wales 1 (3 mins - Aaron Ramsey) Belarus 0. What a start for Wales! The corner kick popped out the other side, Allen kept it alive, Davies' shot was saved by the goalkeeper, but he couldn't hold on to it and Ramsey was on hand to finish the rebound into the back of the net from a few yards out!

Shot from Allen! An early chance for Wales with the ball played to the edge of the penalty area, but Allen's shot is deflected wide for a corner kick which doesn't come to anything.
