North Macedonia – Romania

North Macedonia welcome Romania to the Nacional Arena Toshe Proeski for a World Cup qualifier on Wednesday. The hosts come into the game on the back of a thrilling 2-2 draw away to Iceland on Sunday. Romania picked up a routine 2-0 home victory over Liechtenstein. This will be the seventh meeting between the two sides and North Macedonia have just one win against Romania. They have five wins to their name but the sides are yet to play out a draw.

The hosts are currently on a five-game winless run. Romania have won two games on the trot, having initially lost four matches consecutively. The two sides are almost evenly matched but North Macedonia’s poor run of form installs Romania as slight favorites in the game.

However, the hosts have shown their wherewithal in these qualifiers, as evidenced by their shock victory over Germany in March. We are predicting a share of the spoils with goals to be scored at both ends.
