Match Preview:
Cyprus held Romania to a 2-2 stalemate on September 9 in their most recent group game, and they should be credited for overturning a 2-0 deficit while also preventing their opponents from producing a single shot on target in the second half.

Head coach Apostolos Mantzios will hope that his side can improve at the back on Thursday given they have not kept a clean sheet in five games, conceding two goals in four of those matches.

The hosts' two goals against Romania were the only time the nation managed to score in three fixtures, and they netted just three times in their first four group outings.

Bosnia-Herzegovina were beaten 2-1 by Austria on September 9 in their last qualifying match, and the defeat could prove costly given Austria have played a game fewer and a second-placed finish would only place them into a playoff tie for a spot at the 2026 World Cup.

The visitors did win 6-0 against San Marino on September 6 in their prior group match, but they only scored five times in their other four games.

Zmajevi triumphed 2-1 in the reverse fixture against Cyprus in March, and they also emerged as winners in two of their previous three encounters with their opponents.

Match Prediction:
Neither side have been particularly productive in the final third, so supporters of both nations should not expect an entertaining clash at AEK Arena. Considering the poor form of Cyprus, as well as Bosnia-Herzegovina's strong record in recent matches, there is no reason to doubt the visitors' capacity to win on Thursday.
