Ukraine lost 3-2 against the Netherlands in a well-contested game while Macedonia suffered a hurtful 3-1 defeat against Austria. A loss next, could be a big stumbling block to advance into the next stage. Ukraine as of now look favourites given their squad quality. However, North Macedonia have produced setbacks earlier, so they might not be a pushover.

Key Players to Watch Out For:
Ukraine: Despite the loss, Zinchenko has had a huge influence in their game against the Netherland and he should again be the linchpin against Macedonia. Apart from him, the attack should be led by Andriy Yarmolenko who scored a beauty in the previous game. If Ukraine are to bounce back from defeat then Yarmolenko’s final-third involvement will be absolutely critical to achieving that.
North Macedonia: Macedonia are likely to face a lot of challenges from the Ukrainian attack in the next game so once again it will be crucial for their man between the sticks, Stole Dimitrievski who has had a fantastic outing against Austria earlier.
Head to Head:
Ukraine wins: 2
Draws: 1
North Macedonia wins: 1
Last meeting: Ukraine 2-0 North Macedonia
