Romania - Bosnia and Herzegovina

Romania enter this matchday 2 fixture looking to recover from a 2-1 defeat against Sweden on 25 September 2026. Their campaign in the UEFA Nations League B Group 4 began with a difficult outing, and they will be eager to find their rhythm on home soil. Conversely, Bosnia and Herzegovina arrive following a 0-0 draw against Poland on 25 September 2026. While they maintained defensive solidity in that opening contest, the visitors face a significant challenge as they navigate this group without the injured Amar Dedic, who remains a notable absence from their defensive ranks.

The two sides last met in the UEFA Nations League in September 2022, when Romania secured a 4-1 victory. With the expected XI for Romania featuring attacking threats like Louis Munteanu and Dennis Man, the hosts will aim to replicate that offensive efficiency against a Bosnia and Herzegovina side anchored by Sead Kolasinac and Nikola Katic. As both teams seek their first win of the group stage, the atmosphere at Arena Nationala on 28 September 2026 will be pivotal in determining which side can claim their first points of the campaign.
