Recent form
Luxembourg
Luxembourg have been struggling for form in recent matches, failing to secure a victory in their last six outings. The team have endured a particularly difficult run, losing their last three matches on the bounce, including a 3-0 defeat to Belgium in a friendly. Luxembourg's defence has been a concern, conceding eight goals in six games, while their attack has been largely ineffective, managing to score only once during this period. Despite their poor run, Luxembourg have shown some resilience, securing two goalless draws against Bulgaria and Belarus in the UEFA Nations League. The team have been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent matches featuring fewer than 2.5 goals. Luxembourg's current winless streak extends to seven games, highlighting the urgent need for improvement in their upcoming fixtures.
Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland have shown impressive form in their recent fixtures, with a notable run of three consecutive wins in their last three matches. The team's defensive record is particularly outstanding, having kept five clean sheets in their last six games and conceding only one goal during this period. Their attacking prowess is also evident, with a high-scoring 5-0 victory against Bulgaria in the UEFA Nations League standing out as their most prolific performance. Northern Ireland have averaged 1.83 goals per game whilst maintaining a miserly 0.17 goals conceded per game, resulting in a strong positive goal difference of 10. The team's ability to keep matches low-scoring is reflected in the fact that 83% of their recent games have seen under 2.5 goals, and remarkably, both teams have failed to score in any of these six matches. This combination of solid defence and clinical attack has contributed to Northern Ireland's current positive streak in the UEFA Nations League.

Recent home/away form
Luxembourg
Luxembourg's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with the team experiencing both highs and lows. They have won three and lost three of their last six matches at home, showcasing inconsistency. Notably, Luxembourg have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these games, but they've managed to outscore their opponents overall with 9 goals scored compared to 6 conceded. The standout performance came in their 4-1 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Euros Qualifiers, which was their highest-scoring match in this period. Luxembourg have shown an ability to be competitive, with half of their games seeing both teams score and an even split between matches going over and under 2.5 goals. Their most recent form is concerning, however, as they've lost their last two home fixtures, both by a narrow 1-0 margin in the UEFA Nations League.
Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland's recent away form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their last six matches. The Green and White Army have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just 0.5 goals per game on average, whilst conceding a worrying 1.83 goals per match. Their defensive frailties were particularly evident in heavy defeats to Spain (5-1) and Finland (4-0), both high-scoring affairs that significantly impacted their goal difference. On a more positive note, Northern Ireland have managed two clean sheets in their last six away games, including a creditable 0-0 draw against Belarus and a 1-0 victory over Scotland. However, their inability to score consistently remains a concern, with 67% of their recent away matches featuring under 2.5 goals. The team will be looking to improve their attacking output and defensive stability as they continue their UEFA Nations League campaign.
