Liechtenstein vs San Marino Prediction and Betting Tips | November 18th 2024

The race for promotion in Group D1 of the 2024 UEFA Nations League goes down to the wire as Liechtenstein and San Marino lock horns at the Rheinpark Stadion on Monday. Both sides are separated by just two points heading into the group finale and this makes for an exciting contest.

Liechtenstein failed to secure a morale-boosting result last Thursday when they fell to a 2-0 defeat against Malta in a friendly matchup at the Ta' Qali National Stadium.

Konrad Funfstuck’s men now turn their focus to the Nations League, where they kicked off their campaign with a shock 1-0 defeat against San Marino before playing out back-to-back stalemates in two games against Gibraltar.

Liechtenstein are currently rooted to the bottom of the Group D1 standings with two points from a possible nine, two points behind Monday’s visitors heading into the group finale.

Elsewhere, Nicola Nanni grabbed the headlines for San Marino on Friday when he struck in the 91st minute to hand them a 1-1 draw against Gibraltar at the San Marino Stadium.

Before that, Roberto Cevoli’s men kicked off the campaign with a 1-0 win over Liechtenstein in September to record their first win since 2004. They then lost 1-0 against Gibraltar in the first of their Group D1 double-header.

San Marino, who are the lowest-ranked side in the latest FIFA World Rankings (210), head into Monday needing just a point to clinch a second-placed finish and secure a place in the promotion playoff.
