Faroe Islands

The team began their qualification campaign with defeats to the Czech Republic (1-2) and Montenegro (0-1). Notably, their three-match goal-scoring streak in this tournament ended against the Balkan side. The Faroese skipped the third round but played a friendly against Georgia (0-1). In Group L, they sit in fourth place, ahead of their closest rival only on goal difference. Additionally, the team approaches this match with a six-game losing streak in World Cup qualification.

Match Prediction: Faroe Islands vs. Gibraltar

In the upcoming encounter, the Faroe Islands have a chance to secure their first victory in this qualification cycle. They are hosting one of Europe's weakest teams, and the hosts should have no trouble winning.

Gibraltar performed decently in the last Nations League against teams of similar caliber. However, in World Cup qualification, they face much tougher opponents, and so far, Gibraltar is not ready to compete with them. In their last 11 away World Cup qualification matches, Gibraltar lost all, including to Estonia, Cyprus, and Latvia. Even against such teams, Gibraltar conceded at least three goals.

The Faroese also showed promise in the Nations League, although their opponents were of a higher caliber than Gibraltar's. I believe Eydun Klakstein's side will handle the group's underdog without issues. The Faroe Islands have home victories over Andorra and Moldova in World Cup qualification. I think the defensive problems of their next opponent will help the hosts secure three points. My prediction: Victory for the Faroe Islands and Total Over 2.5 goals
