Kosovo head into their Nations League campaign high on confidence after cruising to a 3-0 victory over Andorra in their latest warm-up game. A man to watch in the home team will be winger Edon Zhegrova, who has been producing excellent displays with Juventus of late, while new Fenerbahce striker Vedat Muriqi is also in the squad. Kosovo have been difficult to break down on home soil, keeping clean sheets in 60% of their last five home matches and conceding only 0.40 goals per game.
Ireland, meanwhile, played out a 1-1 draw with Canada in their last friendly. The Boys in Green will be without captain Nathan Collins due to injury, with Liam Kitching likely to step up, while Cardiff City defender Joel Bagan returns to the squad. Ireland's away form has been inconsistent, with just one win from their last five road games and 1.60 goals conceded per match during that run.
As Kosovo have lost only once in their last five at home and have conceded just two goals across those matches, we believe that Home Win should be considered, alongside Kosovo to Score First and Over 1.5 goals (Ireland's away matches average 3.00 goals, while Kosovo's overall games produce 2.50 per match).
This Nations League match will be played on Thursday 24 September 2026 at 19:45.
