• Cyprus have won just one of their four qualifying matches so far.

• Romania need all three points here to keep pace with Austria and Bosnia who are unbeaten in qualifying so far.

• Romania ran out 2-0 winners when these sides met back in June.

🟠 Near Impossible Task for Cyprus

I am still of the opinion that they need to rethink how they organise these qualifying groups. San Marino and Cyprus are essentially cut off from Romania, Austria and Bosnia who are much stronger sides in Group H.

Cyprus’ only win in the qualifying stages so far came at home against San Marino. They were totally dominant in that game which shows that there is another quality gap, first between the top three sides in the group and then between Cyprus and San Marino.

Cyprus won’t get out of this group, I’d be surprised if they even got close given how strongly Austria and Bosnia have started the campaign. They may get slightly more joy in terms of the number of chances they can create seeing as they are playing in front of their home fans. 

🟡 Romania Look to Bounce Back After Stuttering Start

As I briefly touched on earlier, Romania must get maximum points from this game to keep the pressure on Austria and Bosnia who play at the same time as this fixture. At least one of their unbeaten records will come to an end so it is the perfect opportunity for Romania to pounce and climb their way back up the table.

Romania were much stronger in qualifying for the European Championships last year and gave a decent account of themselves in the actual competition, reaching the knockout stages. They’ll have to qualify the hard way this time around, but still are in with a great chance of being part of the lineup in America next summer.
