The 2022-23 UEFA Nations League continues this weekend and will see North Macedonia host Gibraltar at the Toše Proeski Arena on Sunday.
North Macedonia have had mixed results in the continental showpiece so far. After picking up a draw and a win in their first two games in the competition, they suffered their first defeat last time out, losing 3-0 to group leaders Georgia.
The home team have picked up four points from three games and sit second in the group. They will be looking to shake off their latest result and return to winning ways this weekend.
Gibraltar have struggled for results in the Nations League so far, winning none of their three games. They were beaten in their first two games before playing out a 1-1 draw against Bulgaria last time out, with Liam Walker scoring the equalizer from the penalty spot.
The visitors sit rock-bottom in the group with just one point from three games. They will aim to pick up their first win when they play on Sunday.

North Macedonia vs Gibraltar Prediction
North Macedonia have won just one of their last four games across all competitions. They have struggled for results on home soil of late, going winless and goalless in four of their last five games.
Gibraltar are in even worse form than their hosts, as they are winless in their last 20 games across all competitions, a run dating back to November 2020. We expect the hosts to win this encounter.
Prediction: North Macedonia 2-0 Gibraltar
