Luxembourg has shown a certain rise in recent years. However, it has recently started to wobble again. It began the current qualifiers with a loss of 1:3 at home against Northern Ireland. Thus, it remains with only one victory in its last 13 matches, which was against Sweden, but in a friendly match. It is currently in a peculiar period after recently changing its coach, who had been at the helm of the team for 15 years.
Slovakia delivered a surprise on ThursdaySlovakia once again showed that it is a tricky opponent that does not give in easily and is capable of strong performances. Thus, on Thursday, it surprised the favorite Germany and defeated them on their home ground, without conceding a goal, with a score of 2:0. This made a serious statement for qualification for the World Cup, which they last participated in in 2010. Slovakia also won its last visit to Luxembourg with a score of 1:0, which was exactly two years ago in the Euro qualifiers.
Prediction: victory for SlovakiaAfter the victory over Germany, it is normal to expect Slovakia to win against Luxembourg as well. Moreover, as I have already noted, the hosts are in a more peculiar period after their first coaching change in 15 years and have not looked in good shape lately.
