Moldova vs Andorra

Moldova’s pursuit of UEFA Nations League C promotion continues at Stadionul Zimbru as they take on out-of-sorts Andorra.

Keen to rectify past mistakes and avoid another heartbreaking finish in League D after an inferior goal difference denied them third-tier promotion in the last Nations League cycle, Moldova enjoyed a winning start to their Group D2 campaign. Serghei Cleșcenco’s team eased past Malta 2-0 on home turf before seeing off San Marino in a friendly, making it four victories from their last five internationals (L1). Adding to Moldova’s confidence, the abovementioned triumph against Malta was their fourth consecutive win in the Nations League, with each seeing them score precisely two goals. Topically, the Tricolours have bagged two goals in their last five home outings each, setting themselves up nicely for this potentially ‘banana skin’ fixture. Indeed, they’ve claimed just one win across their three most recent meetings with Andorra (D1, L1).

Unfortunately for the visitors, that defeat came in the last Nations League cycle, where they failed to beat Moldova in both H2Hs (D1, L1). Hoping to turn the tables on the former Soviet republic, Andorra head into proceedings searching for their first victory in 2024 (D1, L5). However, a five-match losing streak, bookended by a 1-0 defeat to Malta in their opening Group D2 fixture, paints a bleak picture for the Iberian minnows. That run forms part of a more ominous pattern that has seen Andorra fail to find the back of the net in 11 of their last 12 internationals (D2, L10). Andorra’s historic record in this competition tells an equally disappointing story, as they’ve only won two of their 19 Nations League games (D8, L9), with both victories coming against Liechtenstein.
