EURO 2024 Qualifier Preview

Slovenia may feel as though this draw in Group H has given them the perfect opportunity to reach a first European Championship since 2000. The nation has failed to qualify for each of the previous five editions of the tournament, including the edition in 2020, as they finished fourth in the qualifying campaign. In that stage, they managed to record just four wins from ten matches, and they scored just 16 goals.

However, their Nations League performances do suggest that they are a nation back on the rise, as they finished third in their first Division B campaign last year. They managed to pick up just one win from six matches, but their three draws ensured that they avoided the embarrassment of being relegated back in Division C. 

Kazakhstan is currently ranked at 115th in the world, which has seen them drop considerably since achieving their best-ever ranking in September 2016. The nation is yet to qualify for a major tournament. However, they did achieve their best qualifying campaign for the 2020 edition of the EUROs, as they picked up three wins from their ten matches. 

They should also come into the qualifying campaign in good form, as they finished top of their Division C Nations League campaign last year. In that campaign, they picked up four wins from the six matches that they played. However, they come into this opening qualifier after losing each of their last three matches. 

Kazakhstan vs Slovenia Head to Head

This will be a first international meeting between Kazakhstan and Slovenia on Thursday. The return game will take place in Slovenia on matchday ten in November.

Kazakhstan vs Slovenia Prediction

This could be a very interesting showdown between two nations that enjoyed steady performances in the Nations League last year. However, the recent Kazakhstan form is a concern, and we could see Slovenia battling to an opening night win in Group H by a one-goal margin on Thursday.
