Liechtenstein-Bosnia is a match valid for the seventh day of Euro 2024 qualifying Group J and is played Friday at 8:45 p.m.: predictions.
The German European Championship will most likely remain a pipe dream for Bosnia, now doomed along with Iceland and Liechtenstein in Group I.
Yes, there are still 4 games left to play but the Balkan selection has to make up 7 points on second-ranked Slovakia, currently the main candidate for qualification along with the unreachable Portugal. That’s a significant gap, forcing Savo Milosevic’s men – set to make their debut on the Zmajevi bench – to win all four remaining matches and hope that Hamsik and co. don’t do the same. Ahead, in fact, is even surprising Luxembourg, which has even four points more than Bosnia, which is stuck at 6. The defeat they suffered in Iceland (1-0) convinced the federation to hire the former Parma striker, whose only coaching experiences are those at the helm of Partizan and Olimpia Ljubljana for the past three years. The match in Vaduz with lowly Liechtenstein, meanwhile, is one that must be won at all costs: Bosnia cannot slip up if it wants to keep the flame of hope burning.
It would be a grave mistake, in any case, to underestimate the Principality’s small selection, which despite not having collected a single point, one month lost “only” 2-1 to Bosnia.

What’s more, Liechtenstein’s only goal in six games came against Dzeko, Pjanic and teammates. The current Fenerbahçe striker, who has scored 65 goals in the national team’s jersey, will start alongside the former Juventus man. Milosevic, however, will not be able to count on important elements such as Krunic, Kovacevic, Hadzikadunic and Tahirovic.
The Prediction
Bosnia did not shine at all in these qualifiers, showing that they are now at the end of a cycle that brought as a dowry a historic participation in the 2014 World Cup. Victory, in any case, should come against the least competitive selection in the group: the total goals are likely to be less than four.
The probable lineups of Liechtenstein-Bosnia
- LIECHTENSTEIN (5-3-2): Buchel; Wolfinger, Beck, Traber, Malin, Goppel; Luchinger, Wieser, Sele; J. Hasler, Salanovic.
- BOSNIA (3-5-2): Sehic; Dedic, Civic, Kolasinac; Gazibegovic, Cimirot, Pjanic, Stevenovic, Barisic; Dzeko, Demirovic.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 0-2
