Kazakhstan Hosts Slovenia in Crucial UEFA Nations League Match

The UEFA Nations League continues with an exciting matchup as Kazakhstan takes on Slovenia on October 13, 2024. The match is scheduled to kick off at 13:00 UTC at the Central Stadium in Almaty, Kazakhstan. This encounter is part of League B, Group 3 of the UEFA Nations League.

Kazakhstan, currently ranked 4th in the group, is looking to turn their fortunes around after a disappointing start to the campaign. They have failed to win any of their opening three matches, losing twice and drawing once, and have yet to score a goal while conceding six. Their most recent defeat was a 4-0 loss to Austria at the Raiffeisen Arena on Thursday.

Slovenia, on the other hand, sits in the 1st position in the group but suffered their first defeat of the campaign with a 3-0 loss to Norway at the Ullevaal Stadion on Thursday. Despite this setback, Slovenia has a strong record against Kazakhstan, having won the previous three meetings between the two teams. Matjaz Kek‘s side has been unbeaten in 11 of their last 13 outings across all competitions.

The match is expected to be closely contested, with Kazakhstan’s home record in the UEFA Nations League being a notable factor. Kazakhstan has been unbeaten in their last five UEFA Nations League home games, claiming three wins and two draws since March 2022. However, given Slovenia’s superior form and experience, many predict a tough 90 minutes for the hosts, with a likely outcome favoring the visitors.
