Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Italy: What's the story?

The winner of this playoff final will be placed in Group B at the 2026 World Cup alongside Canada, Qatar and Switzerland, which is a favourable group on paper.

Italy made light work of Northern Ireland in the semi-finals last time out, recording a 2-0 victory, and they will be coming up against a Bosnia-Herzegovina team that managed to overcome Wales on penalties following a blockbuster affair.

Bosnia-Herzegovina came from behind to level it up against Wales, and four of their five penalty-takers held their nerve to help the visitors secure a 4-2 win in the shootout.

Italy have not been present in the finals of the last two World Cups, while they were eliminated in the group stage of both the 2010 and 2014 tournament.

As a result, there is so much on the line for the Italians here.

Bosnia-Herzegovina, meanwhile, have only ever qualified for one World Cup, being eliminated in the group stage of the 2014 tournament, but they will be full of confidence after coming through a tricky semi-final last time out.
