After an important 1-0 victory over Liechtenstein last weekend, Wales are still alive in the race for a home tie but have to secure all three points if they are to achieve a home tie.
Under Craig Bellamy's short tenure, this Wales side have looked to have developed a real grit about their play. Despite narrowly losing out to footballing giants Belgium twice, convincing victories against Liechtenstein and Kazakhstan have kept them in the running.
The last meeting between these two nations ended in a tense 1-1 draw in Skopje, thanks to a David Brooks stoppage time equaliser which rescued a point for the visitors that could prove crucial going into Tuesday's clash.
For Blagoja Milevski's North Macedonia side, the stakes are slightly different albeit just as significant. An encouraging qualifying campaign and a higher goal-difference than Wales has left them in a position of control, whereby even a draw in Cardiff on Tuesday will be enough to keep them in second spot. However, North Macedonia know that they can't ease off the gas until all is confirmed as they will not want to suffer the same heartache they did in 2022 when they fell short to Portugal in the play-offs.
For both sides, the task at hand is simple, win and the path to the World Cup becomes clearer, lose and their fate falls into the unpredictable nature of Group F. It's a massive game for both nations and an unmissable watch for soccer fans across the globe.
