Finland vs Bosnia and Herzegovina Prediction

Both sides will play their first game since March and might be a bit rusty here. Most of the players named by both sides have been playing for the national team for a long time, so that should help overcome some of the rustiness in the match.

The two sides are currently evenly matched in this fixture and are likely to play out a draw here.

Prediction: Finland 2-2 Bosnia and Herzegovina
