San Marino vs Northern Ireland Prediction: What Do We Expect from the Weakest?

Prediction for the San Marino vs Northern Ireland Euro 2024 qualifyer, which will take place on March 23d. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The San Marino team is traditionally the weakest team on the European continent. In official matches, they have mostly failed, often by a large score. Their last non-defeat in an official game was in November 2020, when San Marino played in a 0:0 home draw with Gibraltar. Interestingly, San Marino has had two ties in the last four games. However, these were friendly games, and the team faced only teams from Saint Lucia and Seychelles.

Northern Ireland, of course, is far more classy and qualified than San Marino. For example, in the last World Cup qualifier, the team finished third in the group, behind Switzerland and Italy but ahead of Bulgaria and Lithuania. Northern Ireland also finished third in the most recent Nations League - in the C Division group, they were ahead of Cyprus but behind Kosovo and Greece.

In their four meetings with San Marino, the Northern Ireland team consistently scored at least three goals and did not concede once. So why shouldn't this tradition continue in the upcoming game? The situation in San Marino has not changed for many years - they're still the weakest in Europe. On the other hand, Northern Ireland is improving - the team has occasionally fought against the strongest teams. For example, in the last qualifying for the European Championship, the Northern Irish sealed a draw with the Netherlands, and in the qualifying for the previous World Cup, they stopped the Italians.
