  • Euro 2024 Qualifiers - Bosnia & Herzegovina vs Ukraine - Tips & Predictions

The Stadion Bilino Polje will set the stage for an enthralling Path B semifinal encounter between Bosnia & Herzegovina and Ukraine. The Dragons finished fifth in Group J, which comprised six teams. Meanwhile, Ukraine finished level on points with second-placed Italy in Group C but failed to secure direct qualification because of an inferior goal difference.

The Hosts Are Not In Good Shape

Bosnia were drawn in a tough group but could have pushed for a higher finish. They were clubbed with Portugal, Slovakia, Luxembourg, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. Like every other team in their group, the Dragons did the double over Liechtenstein. Their only other win during this qualifying stage came against Iceland.

The team will come into this game riding on the back of three consecutive defeats that came against Portugal, Luxembourg, and Slovakia. In these three games, Bosnia conceded 11 goals and scored just two. Concerns are on the rise, and alarm bells are ringing before the upcoming semifinal encounter.

Ukraine Will Be A Tough Nut To Crack

The Blue and Yellow were extremely unlucky not to secure direct Euro 2024 qualification in Group C. They did the double over Malta and North Macedonia and denied England and Italy to complete a double over them. They lost the away games against the English and Italians before holding them both to a stalemate at home.

With players like Artem Dovbyk, Georgiy Sudakov, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Mykhaylo Mudryk, Ukraine pose a threat to every opposition they face. Ranked 25th in the world, they will be up against a side that is ranked 71st. Additionally, The Blue and Yellow have lost just once in the last seven games and are unbeaten in the last three.

Euro 2024 Qualifiers - Bosnia & Herzegovina vs Ukraine - Tips & Predictions

Bosnia finished at the top of the table in League B Group 3 of the UEFA Nations League, which is why they are still in contention to qualify for the Euro 2024. They were in that group with Finland, Montenegro and Romania.

However, that will not be enough to get past a staunch Ukrainian side. Considering squad strength and recent form, the Blue and Yellow are firm favourites in this encounter.
