Moldova come into the game on the back of a 4-0 defeat to South Korea in an international friendly fixture in January. Four different men got on the scoresheet to help the Asians secure victory.
Bakityar Zaynutdinov's 12th-minute strike helped Kazakhstan to a 1-0 victory over Tajikistan in a friendly last November.
The winner of this tie will retain their spot in League C of the UEFA Nations League next season, while the loser will be relegated to League D.
Moldova vs Kazakhstan Head-to-Head
This will be the sixth meeting between the two sides and they are split down the middle in terms of results.
They each have two wins apiece, while one match in the past ended in a share of the spoils.
Their most recent meeting came in a friendly in February 2019. Dumitru Celeadnic's second-half own goal proved to be the difference between the two sides.

Moldova vs Kazakhstan Prediction
Kazakhstan are the favorites to retain their spot in League C but Moldova are capable of springing an upset if given an opportunity.
Neither side is blessed with an abundance of talent in attack, so we could witness a cagey game with an emphasis on defensive solidity. We are backing the visiting side to secure a narrow victory.
Prediction: Moldova 0-1 Kazakhstan
