Group J action in EURO 2024 qualification continues on Friday, as Bosnia & Herzegovina travel to Liechtenstein. The hosts have already been eliminated from contention to reach the major tournament next year, while the visitors could yet secure their passage with a playoff win in 2024.
EURO 2024 Qualifier Preview
It hasn’t been the qualification campaign that either Liechtenstein or Bosnia would have been hoping for, as both already look unlikely to make the EUROs next year. The hosts this weekend have already been officially eliminated from making the tournament, as they sit bottom of the standings after suffering six straight defeats.
Their performances throughout the campaign have been extremely poor, as they have found the back of the net on just one occasion, and they have conceded a group-high of 19 goals. It has been a testing period for the nation in recent years, as they have gone nine without a victory since the summer of last year, falling to defeats in all international matches that they have played.
Bosnia have fared slightly better in Group J, as they sit fourth in the current standings. They have landed two victories from their six internationals, but they have also struggled in front of goals after netting just five. They could yet finish in the top two places, but they will need to be perfect across their remaining four matches.
However, they do have the added benefit of a playoff to fall back on if they are to achieve their dream of competing at the EUROs next summer. Bosnia fell to a defeat in their most recent international fixture, as they suffered a 1-0 away defeat against Iceland.
Liechtenstein vs Bosnia & Herzegovina Head to Head
Bosnia has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have avoided defeat in all nine previous encounters between the sides. Furthermore, they have won each of the last eight meetings between the teams following a 0-0 draw in the first ever meeting in August 1999.
Liechtenstein vs Bosnia & Herzegovina Prediction
Bosnia’s record in this fixture is the key trend to follow this weekend. They have won each of the last eight against their rivals, which includes a 2-1 success in the most recent clash in September. We could see them landing victory by a wider scoring margin on Friday evening.
