EURO 2024 Qualifier Preview
The final round of games in Group J take centre stage on Sunday, as Slovakia look to get over the line in their race to secure second spot in the standings. The European nation come into the final weekend of qualification sitting second in the standings, and they require just one victory to book their spot in Germany next summer.
They have been strong throughout this qualifying campaign, as they have won five of their eight matches, and boast the second best defensive record in the group behind Portugal. It will be a memorable run for Slovakia, as they look to secure their spot at the major tournament for the third successive occasion. But, they will be looking to better their showing at EURO 2020 which saw them exit at the group stage.
Bosnia could yet join Slovakia at the EUROs next summer, but they won’t be able to achieve that target by finishing in the top two positions in Group J. They will have to earn their spot in the first couple of months of next year, as they will have a playoff following a strong showing in the Nations League.
Bosnia have threatened to show their best form in qualifying, as they have won three of their eight matches. However, they will need to improve defensively before their important playoff after allowing 14 goals in eight matches.
