Bosnia & Herzegovina Team News & Stats
Everything was OK for Bosnia until the middle of the second half against Switzerland. That’s when we saw a collapse that eventually led to a 4-1 defeat, which significantly hurt Bosnia’s chances of reaching the knockout stage.
For the 9th time in the previous 10 matches, the Dragons played a game in which both teams scored. Yet on the other hand, this is the first one after 6 consecutive to see over 2.5 goals.
Likely Lineup: Vasilj; Dedic, Katic, Mujakic, Kolasinac; Bajraktarevic, Tahirovic, Basic, Alajbegovic; Demirovic, Lukic
Qatar Team News & Stats
A 6-0 defeat to Canada exposed all of Qatar’s flaws. This was their 8th match in a row without a triumph, and the 5th defeat during that stretch. We have to say that the Asian team looked terrible throughout the match, at times as if they were amateurs.
Qatar couldn’t score in 4 of the previous 5 matches. It tells a lot about their overall quality. We won’t spend too much of your time anymore.
Likely Lineup: Abunada; Al-Oui, Miguel, Khoukhi, Mendes; Gaber, Laye; Junior, Al-Haydos, Afif; Ali
Head to Head
Bosnia and Qatar had two friendlies. One was in 2000, when Qatar won at home, 2-0 and the other in 2010, which ended 1-1.
Bosnia & Herzegovina vs. Qatar World Cup Predictions
Bosnia will win this game, because their rivals are possibly the worst team in the entire World Cup. Qatar’s tie against Switzerland was pure luck, and Bosnia will prove it.
