Bosnia and Herzegovina vs Liechtenstein Predictions
[wptb id=393413]
A Clash for Honour and Momentum
Key Stats
– Liechtenstein’s away form reads nine consecutive losses, including setbacks against teams like Andorra and the Faroe Islands.
– Liechtenstein’s goal difference stands at -14 after just four games.
In the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifying Group J fixture, Bosnia-Herzegovina play host to Liechtenstein at Stadion Bilino Poloje. Both teams are reeling from losses and are hungry for a triumphant turnaround.
Recent Form and Team Dynamics
After a 3-0 victory against Iceland on the opening matchday, Bosnia-Herzegovina’s fortunes nosedived. Three back-to-back losses without finding the back of the net have dented their morale. Notably, they were handed 2-0 losses by both Slovakia and Luxembourg. The latter spelled the end for Faruk Hadzibegic, leading to Meho Kodro, the ex-Barcelona and Real Sociedad player, reclaiming the managerial helm for a second stint.
Currently, the Dragons find themselves in the fourth position in Group J, a whopping nine points behind table-toppers Portugal. However, there’s a silver lining for them; having secured a promotion to League A in the 2024-25 Nations League, they’re assured a playoff spot.

On the other hand, Liechtenstein, whose international exploits are often shadowed by defeats, are at the bottom of the Group J table. They’ve conceded 11 goals in just two games against Portugal and Iceland. Their fighting spirit did surface during the 1-0 loss to Slovakia, yet they’ve been winless in 17 consecutive games since 2021.
Historical Head-to-Heads
Looking at past encounters, Bosnia-Herzegovina hold a dominant record over Liechtenstein. Since their 0-0 draw in a 1999 friendly, Liechtenstein have lost seven consecutive games to the Dragons.
Squad News
Bosnia’s boss, Kodro, has shown faith in veterans. Edin Dzeko, with an impressive 64 goals, is poised for his 130th national appearance. With five goals in seven games for Fenerbahce this season, Dzeko is in top form. Miralem Pjanic continues to be an influential figure, while Tarik Muharemovic, the 20-year-old Juventus Next Gen defender, is set for a potential debut.
In contrast, Liechtenstein’s squad mainly features players from their home nation, Switzerland, and Austria. The notable exception is striker Dennis Salanovic, a free agent currently in search of a new club. He’s expected to lead the frontline, especially with the absence of 94-cap skipper Nicolas Hasler.
Predictions
- Match Outcome Prediction: Leveraging the stats and given Bosnia’s strong home record, they are favourites for this game. The handicap market presents value, so backing Bosnia to overcome a -3 handicap seems plausible, especially considering Liechtenstein’s lacklustre away form.
- Correct Score Prediction: Taking into account Liechtenstein’s goal drought and Bosnia’s historical dominance, a 6-0 win for Bosnia-Herzegovina is anticipated.
- Goalscorer Prediction: AC Milan’s midfielder Rade Krunic is likely to shine. With two goals from two qualifiers and an increased attacking role for his country, he’s a prime candidate to score in this fixture.
