Welcome to Extratips: Slovakia vs Kosovo – World Cup Qualifiers Showdown
Slovakia and Kosovo face off in a high-stakes clash on March 26, 2026, at 19:45 for a place in the next round of World Cup qualification. Slovakia has home advantage and comes in as slight favorites. Both teams are fighting hard in the semifinals and are tied in the standings with 6 points each, though Slovakia sits just above due to a better goal difference.
Check these betting odds: Slovakia win at 1.73, Draw at 3.50, and Kosovo win at 4.33. These odds suggest a close contest but lean toward a home win. Both teams are level on form, but key injuries for Slovakia—Lubomir Satka and Matus Bero—could play a role. Kosovo, meanwhile, have a full-strength squad. Recent matchups are rare in history, but both teams have been solid defensively and tend to play tight games. Slovakia has won 3 of its last 5 home matches, while Kosovo has grabbed 2 away wins, 2 draws, and only 1 loss in their last 5 on the road.
Look for key players like Ivan Schranz for Slovakia and Fisnik Asllani for Kosovo, both in good scoring form. With nerves and motivation high, anything can happen in knockout football. Will Slovakia's home edge tip the balance, or can Kosovo pull off a big result?
