Montenegro plays Gibraltar in World Cup qualifying match

Qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup starts on Saturday with matches in UEFA Group L. The first game features Montenegro against Gibraltar at Gradski stadion in Nikšić.

They aim to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since becoming independent in 2006. Gibraltar has also had a good stretch in recent games. They have two wins and five draws in their past seven matches. Their last loss was on June 3 against Scotland. Gibraltar's victories were against Andorra and San Marino.
