Moldova and Andorra return to action in the UEFA Nations League when they square off at the Zimbru Stadium on Thursday. Both sides picked up contrasting opening-day results back in September, with Koldo’s men narrowly losing against Malta.
Moldova maintained their fine run of results on September 10 when they picked up a 1-0 victory over San Marino in a friendly matchup at the Zimbru Stadium.
This followed a 2-0 victory over Malta in their Nations League curtain-raiser on September 7 courtesy of first-half goals from Mihail Caimacov and 26-year-old lon Nicolaescu.
Moldova head into Thursday’s clash on a run of four wins from their last five games across all competitions, with a 4-0 friendly defeat against Ukraine on June 11 being the exception.
Andorra, on the other hand, were denied a dream start to the new Nations League campaign as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Malta at the Estadi Nacional on September 10.
Koldo’s side have lost five games on the trot across all competitions and have failed to win their last 19 games across all competitions, losing 15 and claiming four draws since a 2-0 victory over Liechtenstein in September 2022.
Next up for Andorra is the stern challenge of taking on an opposing side who are unbeaten in seven of their last eight clashes since February 2011.
