Bosnia & Herzegovina put five goals past both Wales and Italy inside five days in March - then scored only six more across their next six matches combined. That swing in form sits behind Friday's UEFA Nations League opener between Poland and Bosnia & Herzegovina at PGE Narodowy in Warsaw, kicking off at 19:45 BST.
Full details and the match page are at Poland vs Bosnia & Herzegovina.
Bosnia & Herzegovina won 5-3 away at Wales in World Cup qualifying on 26 March 2026, then followed it five days later with a 5-2 win over Italy at home. Ten goals in two matches pointed to a team playing with real freedom in attack.
It didn't last. Since that win over Italy, Bosnia & Herzegovina have drawn 0-0 with North Macedonia, 1-1 with Panama and 1-1 with Canada, lost 4-1 to Switzerland, beaten Qatar 3-1 and lost 2-0 to the United States to exit the World Cup. Six goals in six games is a different team to the one that scored ten in a week.
Poland's own recent record offers little more certainty. They beat Albania 2-1 on 26 March 2026, then lost 3-2 away to Sweden five days later, lost 0-2 at home to Ukraine on 31 May and drew 2-2 with Nigeria on 3 June. One win in four, and none in the last three.
Poland and Bosnia & Herzegovina last met in the 2020-21 Nations League, when Poland won both group games. Across four previous meetings between the two, Poland have never lost to Bosnia & Herzegovina. It's a run that gives Friday's game some history, even if neither side's current form points obviously to a repeat.
