Finland – Bosnia, Euro Qualifiers Prediction
ANALYSIS AND PREDICTION FOR FINLAND - BOSNIA
Finland has recently emerged as a very rugged team and ended easy in first place in its League of Nations group. The Finns are impressed with a lot of literate defense, and in the attack they have the Championship goal scorer, Pukki, who is one of the most dangerous attackers currently in the game. If he gets a chance, he scores. He is quite effective and is in form.
Bosnia had an illogical struggle against Armenia and Greece at home, but the worse was against the Greeks, where they finished 2-2 in a very nervous fight. We think that their hesitating game is making their match with Finland very difficult, so it will not surprise the hosts to take anything from the game. They will rely on Dzeko and Pjanic again, of course, but Pjanic won’t play, which means guests are losing much creativity and quality in the midfield.
The guests also have a strong defense and we do not expect a very open match. Here the loss would be very heavy, and the Finns have been conceding goals at home very hard overall. Finland has 8 clean sheets in its last 10 home games, and in 7 of the last 9 away games of Bosnia there were less than 3 goals. A cautious match and not so many chances is a logical development, so prediction Under 2.5 goals at 1.59.
