Malta vs North Macedonia Prediction: The Balkans have the best chance of success

Prediction for the match between Malta and North Macedonia which will take place on September 12. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After four matches in the qualifying tournament for Euro 2024, the Malta team has no points and quite logically occupies the last, fifth place in the standings of Group C with a goal difference of 1:9. By the way, the only goal at the tournament Maltese scored in an away match for themselves just to their future rival, the national team of Northern Macedonia, that match ended with a 2:1 victory for the Balkans. Malta has no real chance of a place in the top 2 of the group.

The Macedonians still have formal chances to qualify for the final tournament of Euro 2024, but they are very slim. Before starting the 6th round of the qualification tournament, the Macedonians, with 4 points, were in fourth place in the table, three points behind Ukraine, which is in second place. Ukraine will play away against Italy in this round. They will probably lose in Milan. The Balkans have a good opportunity to equalize on points with their direct competitor, but they must win in the away match.

The North Macedonian national team participated in the World Cup in Qatar. The future guests have more experience than the Maltese, and their composition is generally much superior to their future opponents. The chances of the Balkans reaching the finals of Euro 2024 are small, but they will become almost nil if the future guests lose points in the match against Malta. We believe that in this pair, we should bet on the favorite. The Maltese are quite weak, and the field factor is unlikely to save the islanders.
