Betting suggestion:

We are expecting some goals in this match. Friendly matches are often used to give opportunities to players usually at the bench. So, we expect softer tactical approaches that might lead to spaces at both defences. As a result, there could be many goal opportunities.

As for Eslovénia, this is the 2º friendly match of the year, after the previous friendly match against FYR Macedonia. There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 29‑03‑2011, the match ended with the final score: Irlanda do Norte (0‑0) Eslovénia. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis N. Ireland

This is the 2º friendly match of the year for the home team, after the friendly match against o Wales, which ended with the final score: Wales (1‑1) Northern Ireland. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 20 conceded. Irlanda do Norte has won 4, tied 3 and lost 0 of the last 7 home matches.

Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Northern Irelando is coming from an equaliser (1-1) at Wales. Their recent weaknesses led the manager to adopt a more defensive approach with a line of five midfielders in which Dallas and Lafferty are responsible to explore the flanks. The player with more quality in that midfield unit is Steven Davis (Southampton). Washington should be the forward in this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Roy Carroll, Craig Cathcart, Jonny Evans, Michael Smith, Patrick James Coleman McNair, Oliver Norwood, Steven Davis, Shane Ferguson, Conor Washington, Jamie Ward.
Coach: G. McAuley, I. Baraclough.

Analysis Slovenia

The away team plays its 2º friendly match of the year, after having faced a FYR Macedonia, in a friendly that ended with the final score: Slovenia (1‑0) FYR Macedonia. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 0 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 9 away matches Eslovénia has won 2, tied 0 and lost 7.

Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Slovenia is coming from a home victory against Macedonia by 1-0: Bezjak scored the only goal of the match after 58 minutes. The visitors use to play in a 4-4-2 formation with many pieces at the center of the pitch in order to progress in the field throw short passes. At the front, Novakovic and Bezjak are the main threats for the opposite defences, and the latter is showing more abilities lately with 12 goals scored in his championship.

Confirmed Lineup: Jan Oblak, Bojan Jokić, Nejc Skubic, Miral Samardžić, Josip Ilicic, Jasmin Kurtic, Rene Krhin, Valter Birsa, Benjamin Verbic , Roman Bezjak.
Coach: B. Cesar, M. Kek.
