Israel vs Romania Predictions

• Romania have not lost any of their last nine matches
• Israel’s last four European Championship qualifiers have had fewer than three goals
• Romania have kept a clean sheet in four of their last six competitive matches

Crucial clash in race for qualification

Israel’s hopes of qualifying for Euro 2024 hang by a thread after taking just one point from their last two games, a loss to Kosovo and a 1-1 draw with Switzerland.

They face Romania on Sunday with their opponents four points ahead of them in Group I.

As a result, Israel need to win and then hope their rivals also drop points in their final qualifier against Switzerland. However Romania have been in rock solid form recently, particularly defensively.

The Tricolorii have not lost any of their last nine games and have only conceded four times in eight qualifiers.

Israel could leave themselves open

Israel’s need to win this game means they may have to go for it at some stage and they may be vulnerable defensively as a result. Goals have also been an issue for the Skyblue and Whites, who have only netted eight across their eight qualifiers, and they could fall short in this one.

Romania’s rock solid defence and Israel’s need to go for it at some point may leave them vulnerable and the away side are fancied to win.

Low-scoring affairs have been typical for Israel recently so correct score backers should side with a 2-0 Romania win.
