The upcoming UEFA Nations League match between the Republic of Ireland and Finland is set to be a pivotal encounter for both teams as they strive to avoid relegation. Scheduled for November 14, 2024, at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, this clash is crucial; Ireland needs at least a draw to secure their position in League B, while Finland requires a victory to keep their hopes alive . Both teams enter this match following disappointing results in their previous games, with Ireland losing 2-0 to Greece and Finland falling 3-1 to England.
The battle to avoid relegation intensifies on Thursday and we are predicting Ireland to claim a vital three points in front of their own fans.
Finland have really struggled this campaign and with morale so low, it’s hard to envisage the Eagle-owls securing a positive result in Dublin.
