An Uphill Battle in Euro 2024 Qualifiers
Key Stats
– Bosnia-Herzegovina have only one win from their last five games in Group J.
– Liechtenstein have conceded a staggering 19 goals in just six matches.
On the one hand, we have Liechtenstein, whose relentless quest for their first points in Group J persists. A team who are yet to win a single match in their Euro 2024 qualification journey. For those acquainted with the world of football, this comes as no shock. Liechtenstein have a historical pattern of disappointment, not qualifying for a World Cup in the last two decades and a mere two victories in their recent four European qualification quests.
Their current campaign started on a sour note, being thrashed 4-0 by Portugal, and a series of defeats followed. Despite some noticeable improvements since Konrad Funfstuck took the helm as their head coach in June, they are still searching for that elusive victory, coming off a recent 3-0 trouncing by Slovakia. The home advantage in three of their final four matches in the group stage offers a sliver of hope, but their past performance indicators, including a glaring 19-game losing streak, may not instill confidence.

On the other hand, Bosnia-Herzegovina have a bit more to showcase. They have previously graced the World Cup stage in 2014 but have missed out on the European Championship. Their performance in Group J has been patchy, with only two wins out of six matches. Their need for points is paramount, especially after a disheartening 1-0 loss to Iceland. They have a daunting task ahead with challenging fixtures, including games against Portugal and Slovakia.
Player Highlights
Liechtenstein’s squad has a few notables. The absence of Ferhat Saglam means a possible third cap for the 34-year-old Julien Hasler. Dennis Salanovic, with four goals under his belt, remains the top scorer for the team, even though he is currently clubless.
Bosnia-Herzegovina, despite the absence of several key players, boasts of Edin Dzeko. With a whopping 65 national goals, Dzeko is expected to spearhead their attack alongside Ermedin Demirovic, while seasoned players like Miralem Pjanic are likely to fortify their midfield.
Key Performance Indicators
Drawing from the BettingTips4You Expert Rating, Liechtenstein’s top players like Benjamin Büchel (6.75) and Dennis Salanovic (6.63) are expected to make their mark. Despite their defensive shortcomings, as evidenced by the 19 goals conceded in just six games, Liechtenstein shows some attacking potential.
Bosnia-Herzegovina, ranked 36/53 in the competition, have a higher average rating of 6.73. Rade Krunić, with an impressive rating of 7.28 and two goals to his name, is one to watch. Bosnia’s statistics show a balanced team, holding a majority of ball possession and creating more chances than their counterparts.
Predictions
- Match Outcome: Considering the historical performances and current form, a Bosnia win seems likely. However, given Bosnia’s recent struggle and only a narrow win in the reverse fixture this could be a tight affair.
- Correct Score: Reflecting upon the reverse fixture and recent performances, a 2-1 win for Bosnia-Herzegovina is a feasible scoreline.
- Goal Scorer: Edin Dzeko, given his vast experience and importance in the Bosnia squad, is predicted to score at least once.
- Corner Insights: Bosnia-Herzegovina, with an average of 4.8 corners per game, is likely to secure more corners than Liechtenstein, who have a modest average of 1.7. Total corners for the game could be in the range of 6-8.
