Following two rounds of matches in the group stage Gibraltar sit as number two with one, while San Marino collected three as number one. Gibraltar dreamed of far more than a draw and a defeat from their first two outings in the Nations League D. They are forced to come up with far more against San Marino.

Gibraltar are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady ten goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of one per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 16 goals, or an average of 1.6 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to four clean sheets in this run.

Having so far lost and won a match in their Nations League D group, San Marino still have the next round firmly in sight. A win here would go a long way in keeping that target in sight and getting through to the next round.
