San Marino vs Liechtenstein Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League

Prediction published on 05/09/2024, 06:08  by Nella Wagah in UEFA Nations League Predictions

Two of Europe’s lowest ranking nations, San Marino and Liechtenstein will meet in the UEFA Nations League this Thursday. The match, a League D, Group 1 encounter, will be staged in San Marino. Read on for our prediction.

San Marino will go into this game eyeing their first win over Liechtenstein in 20 years. Their most recent meeting was four years ago, a Nations League encounter that ended 0-0. That marked the first time in four matches that San Marino avoided defeat in this fixture.

The hosts also failed to score in the last four meetings with Liechtenstein. They are in such bad shape that they haven't won a game in their last 85 outings. San Marino’s last win dates back to 10 years ago, when they triumphed over Bellaria Igea in a friendly.

Liechtenstein aren’t doing much better than San Marino but the visitors can afford to be positive coming into this game. They have two draws in their last three matches, against considerably stronger opposition.

In their most recent outing, Liechtenstein played to a 0-0 draw with Romania. Considering the two sides’ strengths, that was a massive result for Liechtenstein, who had earlier in March, drawn 1-1 with Latvia.

Liechtenstein will hereby be looking to avoid defeat in consecutive matches for the first time in four years. The last time they achieved that, they registered back-to-back away wins against San Marino and Luxembourg.

Heading into this game, Liechtenstein are without a win in their last 39 matches. They scored just once in their last nine matches.
