Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Cyprus vs Northern Ireland
Cyprus’ national football team’s level saw a significant drop in the last decade as they slid down the FIFA rankings from 43rd in 2010 to their current 105th position. Notably, Cyprus’ only win in their last 12 fixtures was against Estonia in last season’s Nations League edition in a playout fixture that kept them in League C.
On Thursday and in their first match of the Nations League new campaign, Cyprus lost to Kosovo who had won just once in 14 games. To point out, the Cypriots couldn’t match Kosovo in all departments of the game, as the visitors had seven shots on goal to Cyprus’ zero.
Northern Ireland on their part were off to a losing start as they went down 0-1 to Greece in Belfast. Nevertheless, the Irish side managed to threaten the Greek goal more with eight attempts but it was the visitors who stole the three points scoring once from their three shots on goal.
Notably, the Green and White Army appeared three times in the World Cup and once in the European Championships. However, after reaching their best rank of 20 in 2017, coach Ian Baraclough’s team is currently ranked 54. Moreover, N. Ireland dropped from League B to C after finishing last in their group.
