The team has secured eight of their last 16 matches under manager Craig Bellamy
The team's attention are squarely on Thursday's World Cup play-off fixture as they await learning their semi-final and possible final rivals.
After finished as runners-up in their qualification pool thanks to a dominant 7-1 win over North Macedonia – their biggest success since 1978 – the side will play the semi-final encounter on their own turf.
They will face either the Albanian side, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo or Republic of Ireland in that fixture on 26 March.
Ex- Wales striker Rob Earnshaw thinks the Welsh squad will embrace a tie against any opponent after their latest performance at Cardiff City Stadium.
"I know Craig Bellamy, I played with him and his mentality is 'give us anyone, it doesn't matter'," Earnshaw commented.
"A lot of fans were wondering recently, 'should we really want Ireland because of that derby feel?'. In my view a number of supporters were hesitant. But personally, that could be amazing.
"It's one of those, yes, we'll take the Kosovans or the Bosnians and Albania are not bad and Ireland, of course, they're a strong team so it will be difficult.
"However you just feel that we'll take anyone right now and it doesn't matter, and a lot of that is because of Craig Bellamy."
Potential Playoff Semi-final Opponents Reviewed
The Welsh squad sit 34th in the world rankings, with the Albanian team 61st, Republic of Ireland sixty-second, Bosnia seventy-fifth and the Kosovan side eighty-fourth.
Albania enjoyed a strong qualification run, with their sole losses suffered at the hands of Group K winners England, who claimed maximum points without conceding a solitary goal.
Burnley's Armando Broja and Lazio's Elseid Hysaj are among the Red and Blacks's more notable names, although it was former Inter Milan, Barcelona and Watford striker Rey Manaj who topped their scoring chart in the qualifiers with 3 goals.
Notably, Albania have not yet qualified for a FIFA World Cup, although they participated at Euro 2016 and Euro 2024, failing to reach the knockout stages on both occasions.
While Slovenia and Sweden had difficult campaigns, with each failing to win a qualifying match, their group was a straight shootout between Switzerland and the Kosovan team.
The Swiss ended the six-match qualifiers three points ahead of Kosovo, whose single loss came at the hands of the group winners.
Kosovo feature ex- Manchester City keeper Arijanet Muric and La Liga's Vedat Muriqi – his country's all-time top scorer – in a squad aiming for a first major tournament appearance.
They have never faced the Welsh team.
Bosnia-Herzegovina were defeated only one time in qualifying, and earned a points more than Wales managed in their 8 games, but still ended 2 points adrift of Group H winners Austria.
They were a quarter of an hour away from clinching a place at the World Cup, but Michael Gregoritsch's equaliser for the Austrians meant the teams tied in the last game of qualifying and Ralf Rangnick's team topped the pool.
Wales have not managed to beat the Bosnians in 4 attempts but did have a memorable defeat against the Dragons as they qualified for Euro 2016 under Chris Coleman even after losing.
Being his nation's historic leading scorer and most-capped player, former Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko, now at Fiorentina, is unquestionably Bosnia's key player.
The 39-year-old was his team's leading goalscorer in qualifying with five goals.
Lastly, we have Republic of Ireland.
After secured only a single point from their opening 3 matches, Heimir Hallgrímsson's side stormed into the play-offs with back-to-back wins against Armenia, Portugal and Hungary.
Troy Parrott netted both goals against Euro 2016 winners Portugal before scoring a hat-trick – with the third goal coming in the 96th minute – as the Republic of Ireland surprised Hungary to take runner-up spot in their group in dramatic fashion.
Talisman Seamus Coleman had a crucial role in his team's resurgence while Brentford keeper Caoimhin Kelleher has secured the starting jersey his own.
The Republic of Ireland are winless in their last four encounters with the Welsh, losing three of those, although James McClean shattered the hopes of the Welsh fans as Martin O'Neill's team won a decisive World Cup qualifier at Cardiff City Stadium in 2017.
