The ones who are looking forward to the UEFA Nations League the most are the outsiders. With the new format, teams such as Luxembourg and Moldova receive a golden opportunity to qualify for the European Championship, something that was unthinkable in the past years.
Luxembourg – Moldova Preview
Luxembourg and Moldova are in a group with Belarus and San Marino. Belarus are seen as the favourites but neither of these two is without a chance to combat them, especially considering Luxembourg beat Belarus during the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
The tiny European nation can be a tricky opponent, as witnessed by victories over Northern Ireland and Switzerland in past qualification cycles. They have been more organized lately and are deceptively strong on the defensive end.

Moldova, on the other hand, has not won a competitive, non-friendly fixture since 2013, when they beat Montenegro 5-2. Ther goal difference over the last ten contests? 3-16, two of which came in one game. Seven of those games were losses.
Luxembourg vs Moldova H2H
Being that Luxembourg and Moldova are always among the lowest ranked teams when World and European qualification draws take place, they rarely find themselves in the same group. It only happened once back in 2008/09 with both games finishing in goalless draws. In general, three of the four fixtures between the two ended that way. Moldova won the first matchup 15 years ago, a friendly which ended 2-1.
