North Macedonia vs Slovenia Predictions & Tips - Low-Scoring Nationns League Tie Tipped
North Macedonia take on Slovenia at Tose Proeski Arena in the final UEFA Nations League Group B1 fixture, with under 2.5 goals recommended as the main tip. Both teams have been ineffective in attack, as North Macedonia have failed to score in eight of their last nine matches and Slovenia have scored just six goals in their last ten competitive fixtures. Five of the last six head-to-head meetings between these sides have also finished with under 2.5 goals, supporting the expectation of a low-scoring match.

North Macedonia vs Slovenia Predictions
North Macedonia face Slovenia at Tose Proeski Arena in Skopje in Monday's final UEFA Nations League Group B1 fixture.
Both nations lack quality in the forward areas, and a low-scoring outcome should be expected.
I have my stake on under 2.5 match goals.
Under 2.5 Goals Tipped in Skopje
- North Macedonia have seen under 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 home matches
- North Macedonia failed to score in 8 of their last 9 matches
- Slovenia have seen under 2.5 goals in 9 of their last 12 matches
- Slovenia scored an average of 1.0 goals per game in their last 7 matches
North Macedonia vs Slovenia Head to Head
North Macedonia and Slovenia have met on six previous occasions. Both nations claimed two wins, while two games finished level.
Under 2.5 goals were scored in five of those six matches, including Slovenia's 2-0 win earlier this year.
North Macedonia Beaten Again
North Macedonia return to home soil after a narrow 2-1 defeat against Scotland at Hampden Park on Friday.
John McGinn broke the deadlock after the interval before Elmin Rastoder headed North Macedonia level just three minutes later.
McGinn restored Scotland's lead from the penalty spot after goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski fouled Ben Gannon-Doak.
Sedloski's side put in a spirited display but were unable to create much in the way of clear-cut opportunities. The North Macedonians registered seven shots and a final xG total of just 0.26.
Friday's defeat in Glasgow made it five successive reversals for the North Macedonians in League B, Group 1.
Before their reversal at Hampden, the Lions lost against Switzerland (3-0 twice), Scotland (2-0) and Slovenia (2-0). North Macedonia had failed to score before Rastoder's headed effort on Friday.
Slovenia Frustrate Group Leaders Switzerland
Slovenia arrive in Skopje after picking up a hard-fought goalless draw against Switzerland in Maribor on Friday.
Bostjan Cesar's side will have been satisfied to pick up a deserved point against the League B, Group 1 winners.
Slovenia had just 29% possession and recorded only eight shots to Switzerland's 13. Both sides struggled to generate clear chances, as reflected by the final xG totals (0.35-0.57).
Friday's draw maintained Slovenia's grip on second place in the section. Cesar's men sit one point ahead of Scotland coming into Monday's final round of fixtures in League B, Group 1.
A victory in Skopje would secure second place and a promotion play-off spot.
Despite their improved performances in October and November, a lack of firepower remains a concern. Slovenia scored just six goals in their last ten competitive fixtures since September 2025.

Verdict
Slovenia should have the edge, but North Macedonia are capable of making this a tight contest on Monday.
With both teams struggling in the forward areas, I expect a low-scoring outcome in Skopje.
I'm backing under 2.5 goals at Tose Proeski Arena.
