Recent form

Belarus

Belarus's recent form has been struggling, with only one win in their last six matches, coming in their most recent game against Luxembourg in the UEFA Nations League. The team has shown defensive resilience at times, managing three clean sheets, but has struggled offensively, scoring only one goal across these six games. There's a concerning run of three consecutive losses in the middle of this stretch, including two heavy 4-0 defeats against Israel and Russia in friendly matches. The team's goal difference of -9 over these six games highlights their defensive vulnerabilities, despite the clean sheets. Interestingly, 67% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards low-scoring affairs, which is largely due to Belarus's inability to find the back of the net rather than defensive solidity.

Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last 6 matches. They've maintained a balanced goal difference, scoring and conceding 7 goals each, averaging 1.17 goals per game both for and against. Notably, they've kept 3 clean sheets in this period, demonstrating solid defensive performances in half of their games. The team has been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with 83% of their matches featuring under 2.5 goals. However, their 5-1 loss to Spain stands out as a particularly high-scoring game and their heaviest defeat in this stretch. On a positive note, Northern Ireland secured impressive wins against Scotland and Luxembourg, showcasing their ability to compete against higher-ranked opponents.
