A fantastic start to the Nations League campaign for Moldova suggests that the team might find themselves in a higher division in the next instalment of the tournament. Conversely, Andorra's position is far from ideal, as they remain at the bottom of the table following a slip-up against Malta (0:1).
In September, Moldova first overcame Malta (2:0) and then secured a win in a friendly against San Marino (1:0). The prominent roles in the team are played by Oleg Reabciuk and Nikita Motpan. Moldova's main star is their forward from SC Heerenveen, Ion Nicolaescu, who has already netted three goals in the Eredivisie and scored the second goal against Malta.
Andorra's lacklustre football showed no improvement in September. Following the defeat to Malta (0:1), the team extended their losing streak to five matches, all without scoring. Almost no standouts feature in their squad, as they deploy a defensive 5-4-1 formation that, despite the two dense lines near the penalty area, leaves room for opponents to create chances. Andorra's hopes rest largely on Villarreal B's goalkeeper, Iker Álvarez, who could potentially find a surge of form.
In the summer of 2022, Moldova managed a home victory over Andorra in the Nations League (2:0). We recommend considering a win for the favourite with a handicap.
