The Kosovo national team after the failure in the first round of the Nations League gained two victories in this tournament and confidently goes on the second line of the standings. In every position, a Kosovo player is individually superior in class to a Cypriot player. This was fully manifested in the match between these teams in Cyprus. Kosovars decided the outcome of the match already by 21 minutes. By scoring two goals against the hosts. If everything was so easy for the Kosovars in the away game, then at home there are certainly no problems to expect. Here the home field factor is added to the class advantage.
The Cyprus national team surprised everyone by beating Lithuania 1-0, but then there was a complete collapse in the games against Kosovo and Romania, the team conceded seven goals and suffered two crushing defeats. The hosts have so many problems in defense that even one goal scored is unlikely to help them gain at least one point in the away match against Kosovo.
