Slovakia take on the visitors Kazakhstan in the round 2 match of League C in UEFA Nations League. The match will be played on Monday, June 6th at City Arena Trnava (Trnava).
Slovakia have a little to celebrate over the past year. "Repre" were able to qualify for the Euro, and even started the continental championship with a victory in St. Petersburg over the Poles. But then there were defeats of both Sweden and Spain. Moreover, with the "fury roha" there were completely humiliating 0-5. There were hopes for the national team to compete for 2nd place in their group (or even 1st!), but in the end, all that was possible was to score 14 points and win 3rd place from Slovenia only by additional indicators. As a result, Russia overtook the competitor by as much as 8 points, and Croatia came off even stronger. Even earlier, the Slovaks lost their place in Division B of the League of Nations. Of course, they want to return there, and on Thursday there was a duel in Novi Sad with Belarus, where the only goal was scored just by nominal visitors.

Kazakhstan tries not to be among the worst in European football. "Hawks" moved relatively recently from the Asian region. It is possible, and even quite likely, that they would have been, if not a grandee of the level of South Korea or Iran, then definitely a “second tier” team, and would have fought for access to the World Cup. But in Europe, the competition is clearly higher, and here in March, with big problems, only through a penalty shoot-out, the Kazakhs retained the right to play at the level of Division C of the League of Nations. However, against the stronger ones, the team could prove itself as a tough nut to crack. Including in 2021, there were already 2 draws with Ukraine, as well as away 2-2 in Bosnia. June began with a confident 2-0 victory at home over not the weakest opponent - Azerbaijan.
Kazakhstan does not play much in UEFA competitions, and there are still European teams with which the Asian has not crossed paths. Slovakia is one of those. Obviously, Slovakia will be the favorite of the meeting. But do not overestimate its advantage, you should take a closer look at the handicap "+1.5 goals" for Kazakhstan.
Prediction for the match: Kazakhstan to win with +1.5 handicap.
