Key stats
- The only previous Nations League meeting between the sides ended 1-1 in Chisinau on Matchday 2 of this edition (29 September 2026).
- Coming into Matchday 6, Moldova are second in Group C3 on seven points, two ahead of third-placed Faroe Islands, with Slovakia already assured of top spot.
- A draw would be enough for Moldova to finish second, while Faroe Islands must win to overtake them.
- Faroe Islands can only drop to fourth if they lose and Kazakhstan beat Slovakia; their head-to-head record with Kazakhstan is level (1-1 and 2-2), so overall goal difference (then goals scored) would decide it, with Faroe Islands starting three goals better off.
- Faroe Islands have drawn all five of their matches this edition and are the only team in the 2026/27 Nations League yet to win or lose a game.
- Faroe Islands have 15 draws in 29 Nations League matches, the most of any of the 55 nations in Nations League history.
- Faroe Islands are unbeaten in seven home Nations League matches (W2 D5), their longest home unbeaten run in the competition, although their last five games in Tórshavn have all been draws.
- Faroe Islands are winless in six Nations League matches (D5 L1), their longest such run in 29 Nations League games, since a 1-0 win in Armenia in November 2024.
- Moldova have beaten Kazakhstan 2-1 twice this edition but lost both games against Slovakia (2-0 and 4-0), and they have conceded in all five matches.
- Moldova's nine goals conceded this edition are their most in a Nations League campaign since 2020/21, having let in just one in four matches when topping Group D2 in 2024/25.
- Faroe Islands' best Nations League campaign came in 2020/21, when they topped Group D1 unbeaten (W3 D3).
- Ion Nicolaescu has scored seven goals in 18 Nations League appearances, the most by a Moldova player, while Viljormur Davidsen has scored five goals in 26 Nations League appearances, the most by a Faroe Islands player.
Faroe Islands vs Moldova prediction
The Faroe Islands come into this one on the back of showing major improvement in UEFA qualification for FIFA World Cup 2026 and they have remained sturdy in the UEFA Nations League, too, with five draws from five matches; including a 2-2 sharing of the spoils against Slovakia in Bratislava on Friday.
Moldova come into this one on the back of a hard-fought 2-1 defeat of Kazakhstan in Chisinau, courtesy of a Petru Popescu brace. The Moldovans now sit second and ahead of the Faroese by two points with all to play for in this final game.
Such has been the solidity of the Faroese and their resilience, siding with them with their home advantage would surely be the way to go as they seek to squeeze into the top two of League C Group 3, ahead of the Moldovans.
