Kazakhstan
Liechtenstein will look to put an end to their three-game losing run in all competitions when they take on Kazakhstan on Tuesday evening. Liechtenstein failed to impress in a 3-0 loss to North Macedonia and, to make things even worse, both Max Goppel and Sandro Wolfinger limped off with injuries in the Group J opener.
The Kazakhs, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 3-1 loss to Wales in their opener. As Kazakhstan will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways, we are tempted to place our bets on Ali Aliyev and Co. Despite failing to find the net in the Cardiff City Stadium defeat, Aybar Zhaksylykov will continue leading the line for the visiting team. It has to be noted that the two national teams meet for the first time in a competitive match.
Highlighted Team (Kazakhstan):
Kazakhstan national team played their first international match on June 1, 1992 against Turkmenistan, with the team beating the Emeralds 1-0. The former Soviet republic have been competing on the international stage since 1991, when the country declared independence.
Kazakhstan have yet to book their place at major tournaments, but they have not been serving as a cannon fodder for top European national teams. The Kazakhs were part of Asian Football Confederation before joining UEFA in 2002. However, they could not enter UEFA Euro 2004 qualification as the draw had been made earlier. Kazakhstan national football team recorded their biggest win over Pakistan in June, 1997 and they suffered their biggest defeat in 2005, with the team losing to Turkey 6-0.
Kazakhstan wear sky-blue shirts and sky-blue shorts when playing at home, while their away colour is yellow. Astana Arena is considered Kazakhstan national football team’s home ground and the capacity of the stadium is 30.244. The venue was opened in July, 2009.
