Expect a passionate atmosphere at Stadion Asim Ferhatović Hase when Bosnia and Herzegovina take on North Macedonia in a clash between two former Yugoslav republics. Bosnia arrive full of confidence after securing qualification for the 2026 World Cup finals by defeating Italy in the playoffs. Veteran striker Edin Dzeko still plays an important role in the squad, but much of the attacking responsibility is expected to fall on Ermedin Demirovic after his impressive season with VfB Stuttgart. Bosnia have also been solid at home, averaging 1.75 points per game in Sarajevo.
North Macedonia, meanwhile, failed to qualify for the World Cup finals and head into this encounter after a goalless draw with Ireland. The visitors have struggled offensively away from home, scoring just 0.50 goals per game on the road over their last six away fixtures. However, they remain capable of causing problems on the counterattack, especially through creative midfielder Eljif Elmas of SSC Napoli. Defensively, Macedonia have kept clean sheets in 50% of their recent matches, but their away record remains inconsistent, collecting only 0.83 points per game away from home.
Bosnia are in stronger form and boosted by World Cup qualification momentum. Therefore, Home Win is our main betting tip for Friday's friendly, alongside Over 1.5 goals and Demirovic to Score.
This match will be played on Friday 29 May 2026 at 20:30.
