North Macedonia take on the visitors Gibraltar in the round 4 match in League C of Nations League. The match will be played on Sunday, June 12th at National Arena Toshe Proeski (Skopje).
North Macedonia is trying to confirm the status of the favorite at this level, although it is not without problems. The Red Lions are now showing the best results in history, even if it is not particularly long. Undoubtedly the best player in the country and a real legend, Goran Pandev, still managed to bring his partners first in the group of the League of Nations, and then in the playoffs for the debut Euro. The veteran even played at last year's championship, where, however, the newcomer did not show anything above expectations. But in qualifying for the World Cup, they became the second, already without the retired veteran. And even knocked out Italy in the playoffs in March on the road! And only Portugal was strong enough to stop them. Against this background, the Macedonians started relatively hard in the new League of Nations. First they pulled out a draw in Bulgaria, then limited themselves to 2 goals against Gibraltar. With Georgia, however, there was a complete failure in the form of a devastating defeat - obviously, the status of the favorite cannot be confirmed.

Gibraltar traditionally plays according to the "Olympic" principle. "Team 54" can only repeat that the main thing is not the result at all, but, of course, participation. So far, for 4 cycles, they have not had any victories in official matches - they have never even caught on for a draw, celebrating only rare goals. True, there was also the last draw of the League of Nations, where, in the company of other major outsiders of European football, they managed to win the group. This brought promotion to the C division. But here the national team so far does not even pull on a sparring partner, habitually remaining a pear. 0-4 on the road with Georgia, 0-2 at home with North Macedonia... But on Thursday, with Bulgaria, such a rare sensation struck: the underdog snatched a draw!
So far, Macedonia is not facing even minimal problems. In 2018, also within the framework of the League of Nations, there were games with Gibraltar. Then the Team 54 was defeated 2-0 and 4-0. Gibraltar, perhaps, closed the program for the entire tournament, and North Macedonia needs to be rehabilitated for the failures in the previous matches of June. We recommend betting on the hosts with a handicap of "-3 goals".
Prediction for the match: North Macedonia to win with -3.0 handicap.
