Cyprus need a win against Bosnia and Herzegovina to stay alive in the race for qualification for the 2025 World Cup campaign from UEFA Group H. This match on Thursday at AEK Arena between fourth-placed Cyprus and top-placed Dragons comes with our prediction of a Bosnia and Herzegovina win and BTTS.
Cyprus have four points (W1, D1, L3) and are eight points from second-placed Austria. Bosnia have 12 points (W4, L1) and are only ahead on goal difference. One team qualifies directly for the World Cup, while the second team advances to the play-offs.
Cyprus’ 2-2 home draw against Romania in the last round halted a run of three consecutive qualifying defeats. The first of those defeats was a 2-1 loss to Bosnia.
That said, all four points for Cyprus have come at home venues, and they are likely to push hard here, knowing that they are closer to elimination than qualification.
Bosnia lost 2-1 at home to Austria in their last game, which came on the back of four wins in the competition. They have four victories from their last six matches, with their defeats coming against Austria and Slovenia in a friendly.
The visitors are looking to reach their first World Cup finals since 2014, and a win here could push them towards top-two qualification.

Our Cyprus vs Bosnia Herzegovina Prediction
Bosnia and Herzegovina are top of the points tally on goal difference, although they have played a game more than Austria. They defeated Cyprus 2-1 in March and need to bounce back from the 2-1 loss to Austria in their last match in September. Cyprus are still in the race to finish second, but time is running out for them, and perhaps it is only a mathematical chance.
Cyprus are unlikely to fold out easily, though, and are likely to at least grab a goal. Our Cyprus vs Bosnia and Herzegovina prediction is Bosnia and Herzegovina win and BTTS.
