Faroe vs Gibraltar Prediction 10 June 2025

📢 Can the Faroe Islands capitalize on home advantage to secure their first win in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Gibraltar? The match will take place in Tórshavn at the Tórsvøllur Stadium, where the hosts traditionally display a bit more confidence. Both teams are considered underdogs in European football and rarely find success in official matches. Gibraltar have stumbled out of the gate in the qualifiers, but the Faroes also lack impressive results. Which of these opponents will break their losing streak and delight their fans?

Head-to-Head

📊 The national teams of the Faroe Islands and Gibraltar have never faced each other in official tournaments. Their last head-to-head encounter was a friendly match in March 2022, where both teams failed to excite the fans, ending the game in a goalless draw (0-0).

Faroe Islands Team Overview

⚪ The Faroe Islands national team has traditionally been among the weaker sides in European football, never having reached the final stages of major tournaments. Their qualification campaign for the 2026 World Cup got off to a poor start with two defeats in the opening matches, reaffirming their status as one of the group's underdogs. Additionally, in a friendly match on June 5 against Georgia, the Faroe Islands suffered a 0-1 defeat. This highlights ongoing issues both in attack and overall game organization.

Gibraltar Team Overview

🔴 Gibraltar's national team has long been established as one of Europe's weakest sides, rarely offering fans even a draw to celebrate. Their start to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers went as expected: they first fell to Montenegro with a 1-3 defeat, followed by a 0-4 loss to the Czech Republic. The culmination of their struggles came against Croatia, where they were crushed 0-7 at home, failing to register a single shot on target. Three matches, three losses, and 14 goals conceded only underline the team's low level and ongoing defensive issues.

Latest news

Faroe Islands

✅ The Faroe Islands national team, despite losing their last four matches, have been narrowly defeated each time, showcasing competitive play under the guidance of Håkan Ericson. This increases the likelihood that the lineup will remain largely unchanged from the match against Georgia (0-1).

Gibraltar

🚫 As for the visitors, following their crushing 0-7 defeat to Croatia, coach Scott Wiseman may consider making significant changes to the lineup. In the heart of Gibraltar's defense, it's likely that Bernardo Lopes and 19-year-old Tyler Carrington will pair up once again. Notably, Lopes received relatively high ratings for his performance against Croatia, despite the heavy loss.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

⚽️ Goal Prediction

The Faroe Islands are not known for their scoring prowess — they have failed to score more than two goals in each of their last 39 matches. Even against weaker opponents, the team plays conservatively, rarely thrilling fans with an attacking display. Given Gibraltar's similar style, a cautious approach is expected in this encounter. We predict the Faroe Islands to score under 2.5 goals.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Both teams rarely take the initiative, especially Gibraltar, who almost always focus on defense. The Faroe Islands are likely to be slightly more active — being the favorites and playing at home obliges them to do so. However, even with this advantage, the match is unlikely to resemble the game against Croatia, where Gibraltar conceded seven goals. We anticipate a more restrained affair with limited attacking opportunities. Our pick is under 9.5 total corners.
