Israel aims to maintain their EURO 2024 qualification chances by playing Group B runners-up Romania in Hungary. A win would hinder their automatic qualification chances, while a point could help Romania secure qualification.

Israel has not qualified for the European Championship since 1994, but their chances are improving with a point earned in their last match against Switzerland. If they beat Romania and Andorra, they will finish in the top two of Group I. Romania has already qualified five times, but this time around, they are in a good position. A draw this weekend will be enough for Edward Iordănescu’s team to secure a place at the next summer’s tournament in Germany, given their massive goal difference in Group I. The team’s faith in the next edition is uncertain.

Israel’s coach Alon Hazan is expected to make changes to their team after their last tie against Switzerland, with the bench-selected striker, Zalman Weissman, likely to be promoted. Roy Revivo has served a one-match ban, while Sagiv Yehezkel is still recovering from an injury he sustained against Kosovo.

Romania’s head coach, Edward Iordănescu, will continue to rely on Nicolae Stanciu and Valentin Mihaila, who are Romania’s joint top scorers in Euro 2024 qualifying. Valentin Mihaila, who was not in the starting eleven for the win over Andorra, could be called upon this weekend.
