Prediction :

 

Over 2.5 goals and BTTS – No

 

North Macedonia will host Liechtenstein in Group J in the European leg of the 2026 World Cup qualification this Sunday. The two are having contrasting fortunes in the qualifiers, with Macedonia second in the group and Liechtenstein bottom. Read on to find our prediction of the match.

With a game in hand on leaders Wales, Macedonia have the advantage here, as they trail by two points. A win takes them top and with a run of seven wins in their last 10 matches, the hosts have this in their grip.

Last time out, North Macedonia lost 2-1 to Saudi Arabia in a friendly. Their solid start in this group, however, had them beat Liechtenstein 3-0 in their first meeting.

This match will be the 13th between these nations, and Liechtenstein are still searching for their first win. In the last four matches between these two sides, Liechtenstein failed to score, and this could extend, going by their recent form.

The visitors head into the match without a point in Group J, on a run of seven straight defeats, and are winless in eight. Their only win in 50 matches was the October 2024 friendly against Hong Kong.

A 6-0 loss to Belgium in their last game means they’ve now conceded 14 times in this group and are yet to score a goal.

Our North Macedonia vs Liechtenstein Prediction

These two nations are well known to each other, having faced off 12 times before. In their latest meeting, back in March of 2025, Macedonia won 3-0. It was another recurrent outcome – over 2.5 goals and at least one side failing to score.

In most cases it is Liechtenstein who fail to score, and they’ve never won this match either. This time too, we don’t expect them to win, but our prediction for North Macedonia v Liechtenstein is for over 2.5 goals and BTTS – No.
