GIBRALTAR v LIECHTENSTEIN MATCH PREVIEW
| Spirits will be high on the Rock as Gibraltar return home having notched a historic first-ever competitive win at the weekend. Despite this, they remain bottom of the group on goal difference ahead of this visit by Liechtenstein. |
| That 1-0 away victory in Armenia brought three teams in the UEFA Nations League D (UNL), group four, level on points. However should Macedonia win their game against Armenia, these nations may well be playing for pride alone. |
| That famous win was also Gibraltar’s first clean sheet in 23 competitive games since their recognition as a footballing nation. Interestingly, they are yet to draw a competitive fixture (W1, L22), with 17 of their 22 defeats coming to nil. |
| Despite being slightly higher in the FIFA rankings and recording a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture, Liechtenstein (FIFA rank: #178) have not won a competitive away game since November 2014 (L9) – they did play out a goalless away draw with Gibraltar in a friendly back in 2016 though. |
| Not only do both nations have dire form at home and away, they also concede a lot of goals – Gibraltar have conceded two or more in all 11 of their competitive home fixtures whilst the same can be said of Liechtenstein’s last nine away from home. |
| Players to watch: Joseph Chipolina’s name will go down in history as his goal secured Gibraltar’s win over Armenia. |
| Dennis Salanović has scored in two of his last three starts in the Swiss Super League for Thun – he also got both goals in Liechtenstein’s UNL win over Gibraltar. |
| Stat attack: Gibraltar have scored just one goal in 11 competitive fixtures at Victoria Stadium. |
| A goal has been scored between 30 and 45 minutes in each of Gibraltar’s last seven competitive home fixtures. |
| Liechtenstein have been losing at HT/FT in seven of their last nine competitive away matches. |
