  • Romania vs Bosnia and Herzegovina kicks off at 21:45 at GiuleČ™ti Stadium and will be broadcast live on PrimaTV and LiveText on HotNews.ro.

Why it is important not to lower the level

There are very important aspects for Edi Iordenescu’s team to avoid relegation – this is due to the 4th place in the group.

Relegation would reduce Romania’s chances (if any) of reaching the eventual qualification barrier for Euro 2024 (unless qualification is achieved in the earlier matches).

The “tricolors” would no longer have the opportunity to qualify for the playoffs of the League of Nations.

Relegation would then also place Romania in the fourth pot of the EURO 2024 preliminary tournament group draw.

How Romania avoids the 4th place in the ranking

Romania’s national team has reached the point where it no longer depends on them to avoid relegation.

In order not to finish in 4th place, Romania needs the following options:

  • The tricolors must win in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Finland must not win in Montenegro.
  • Romania will draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Finland will lose against Montenegro.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is already the winner of the group, and Montenegro is not sure of the second place (they may be overtaken by Finland). Romania can only avoid last place.
