North Macedonia Team News
In the first round of qualification for EURO 2024, North Macedonia defeated Malta at home 2:1. In the first part of the match, there were not too many interesting things, and the home team took the lead in the 66th minute of the game, when Bojan Miovski played past Eljif Elmas, and he put the ball into the net. They doubled their advantage just six minutes later, with a goal by Darko Churlinov, assisted by Enis Bardhi. By the end of the match, the guests managed to reduce the advantage, but not to fully return to the duel.
After that game, they also played a friendly match against the Faroe Islands, because they were free in the second round of qualification. In that match, they managed to triumph with a minimal score, and the only scorer was Bojan Miovski. Before the last two tied wins, they registered four defeats and one draw in all competitions. They occupy the third position in the table, with the same number of points.
Due to injuries, Bojan Miovski, Darko Churlinov, and Valon Ethemi will miss the next match, while all other players will be available and ready to welcome the duel with Ukraine.
It is expected that there will not be too many rotations in the starting line-up compared to the March cycle, but we will have to see.

Ukraine Team News
In the last competitive game, Ukraine lost to England away from home by 2:0. At the end of the first half, the home team scored both goals and during most of the match, they had control over the opponent and deservedly justified their role as favorites.
After that meeting, they played a friendly match against Germany away from home, and the result was 3:3. On two occasions, Viktor Tsygankov was the scorer for the visiting team, while once the home team scored an own goal. Oleksandr Tymchyk, Mykhailo Mudryk and Artem Dovbyk entered the list of assistants. They occupy the penultimate position in the table, and in the last five competitive matches, they recorded two wins and two draws, as well as one loss.
As far as the injured players are concerned, the visiting team should not have any new problems, and the only questionable football player is striker Roman Yaremchuk.
Heorhiy Sudakov and Taras Stepanenko should cover the positions in the midfield, due to the absence of Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Mykyahlo Mudryk, who will also be in the starting line-up, is eagerly awaiting his first goal in the national team jersey.

North Macedonia vs Ukraine Prediction
In the last round, Ukraine was an outsider against England, but now they have a good chance for the first victory in the EURO qualifiers. On the other hand, although North Macedonia has a home-field advantage, we believe that it will be very difficult for them to win against the favored Ukraine. Therefore, our tip for this match is a draw or a win for the visitors, and there will be more than two goals in the entire match.
