Kazakhstan vs Liechtenstein in World Cup 2026 qualifiers: where and when to watch

Tengrinews.kz – On October 10, a World Cup 2026 qualifying match between the Kazakhstan and Liechtenstein national teams will take place in Astana.

The seventh-round match of the qualification cycle will be held at Astana Arena and is scheduled to start at 19:00 Kazakhstan time.

Kazakhstan vs Liechtenstein: who is the favorite

In this qualification cycle, Kazakhstan has lost four out of five matches, winning only against today’s opponent (0:2).

Several key players will miss the game: Dastan Satpaev is undergoing treatment at his club, while Sergey Malyy is sidelined due to injury.

Despite this, Kazakhstan remains the favorite. Some of Liechtenstein’s players are not professional footballers, and the team has yet to score a goal in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The last time Liechtenstein earned points in official matches was in the previous Nations League group stage, with a goalless draw against Gibraltar.

Head-to-head history also favors Kazakhstan: the only previous encounter, on March 25, ended in a confident victory for Kazakhstan.

The World Cup 2026 qualifier will be broadcast live on Qazsport, with coverage starting at 18:50 on the channel’s website.

This will be the first game since Talgat Baysufinov returned as acting head coach. At the pre-match press conference, he emphasized that “the desire to play offensively is the right approach”, raising expectations for an exciting match tonight.
