The Bosnia and Herzegovina national team drew 1-1 with Sweden in a friendly on Thursday, concluding a short preparation period for the resumption of the Nations League. On Monday, October 5th, the Dragons will host Poland at Stadion Bilino Polje in their fourth League B match.
Kerim Alajbegović equalised for Bosnia in the 80th minute, after Viktor Gyökeres had put Sweden ahead in the 61st. This result extends the team's run to one win and two draws in their last three matches, a positive sign ahead of a key fixture. Their recent form reads DWDLL over the last five outings, including a 4-2 victory over Romania last week.
The Polish team arrives in Zenica following a loss to Sweden and having failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup. In the direct clash in September, the two sides played out a goalless draw. Bosnia will rely on the experience of captain Edin Džeko and a squad that achieved a historic World Cup qualification last year.
The match against Poland kicks off at 18:45 at Stadion Bilino Polje. A victory would significantly strengthen Bosnia's position in the fight to remain in the higher tier of the Nations League. The last time these two teams met was in qualification for Euro 2020, when Poland won 3-0.
