Finland v Wales team news
Finland: Manager Markku Kanerva has a fully fit squad to choose from on Thursday.
Norwich forward Teemu Pukki will certainly be the most dangerous threat for the hosts, while ex-Fulham goalkeeper Jesse Joronen - now at Brescia - should start between the sticks.
Wales: Giggs is without a number of star names this week, with Aaron Ramsey David Brooks, Tyler Roberts and Ashley Williams not in the squad.
However, Neco Williams is drafted in and could start, while Gareth Bale is set to play, having barely kicked a ball for Real Madrid over the summer. Hal Robson-Kanu returns from international retirement and will seek to make an immediate impact.
Our prediction: Finland v Wales
Wales may be without some key players in their squad but Giggs should still have enough to claim a win here.
Bale will be hoping to prove a point away from his nightmare in Madrid, while Liverpool youngster Williams will likely bomb forward at every opportunity.
This could be a stodgy match at times but Wales certainly have the quality to outplay this Finland side.
Our prediction: Finland 1-3 Wales
