Europe World Championship Preview: Liechtenstein vs North Macedonia

Liechtenstein’s Struggles in World Cup Qualifiers

Liechtenstein are looking to restore some pride after finishing bottom in their recent UEFA Nations League D campaign. Their attempt to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, however, faces a daunting challenge, as they have an 87% loss rate in World Cup qualification matches. This includes nine defeats in the previous qualification cycle (D1), two of which came against their upcoming opponent, North Macedonia, by a staggering 9-0 aggregate scoreline.

Head coach Konrad Fünfstück has managed to improve his side’s recent performances, avoiding defeat in five of their last nine matches (W1, D4). However, Liechtenstein must overcome an 11-game losing streak at home in World Cup qualifiers. Adding to their woes, they suffered their biggest-ever defeat in a World Cup qualifier against North Macedonia, an 11-1 loss in 1996.

North Macedonia’s Strong Form and Psychological Edge

North Macedonia enter this fixture with momentum after an impressive UEFA Nations League campaign that saw them top Group C4 with an unbeaten record (W5, D1). Each of their victories came with a clean sheet, underlining their defensive strength. Additionally, North Macedonia have won their last three head-to-head encounters against Liechtenstein without conceding a goal.

After narrowly missing out on World Cup qualification in the previous cycle, North Macedonia are determined to make history this time under head coach Blagoja Milevski. Their only loss in their last six away World Cup qualifiers was a 2-0 defeat against Portugal in the play-off final. This run includes a dominant 4-0 victory over Liechtenstein. Furthermore, North Macedonia have won their last two competitive away fixtures, further strengthening their case as favorites.

High Odds Betting Tips for Liechtenstein vs North Macedonia

For bettors looking for high-value opportunities, North Macedonia’s strong track record makes them an appealing choice. Here are some high-odds betting tips based on their expected win:

• North Macedonia Win with AH -1.5 – Given their dominant head-to-head record, a comfortable victory is likely.
• North Macedonia to Win to Nil – Their defensive solidity in recent matches suggests Liechtenstein may struggle to score.
• Over 2.5 Goals – With past encounters producing high-scoring results, this market offers value.
• Bojan Miovski to Score First – The forward has a habit of netting the opener in North Macedonia’s victories.

Key Players to Watch

Nicolas Hasler – The Liechtenstein captain has scored three of his four international goals in victories. He was also the hero in their 1-0 friendly win against Hong Kong.

Bojan Miovski – The North Macedonian forward has been in fine form, opening the scoring in two of their last three victories. His sharp attacking instincts make him a crucial player in this match.

Match Prediction and Final Thoughts about Europe World Championship preview

Considering North Macedonia’s superior squad, defensive resilience, and historical dominance over Liechtenstein, this match is expected to be a one-sided affair. Liechtenstein’s poor home record in World Cup qualifiers further strengthens the case for an away win. A 3-0 victory for North Macedonia seems a likely outcome, making the Asian H. -1.5 bet a strong choice.
