Northern Ireland will take on San Marino in a Euro qualifier at Windsor Park on Saturday.
Both teams are going through a poor run of form but no team would have it worse than San Marino who is at the bottom of the FIFA rankings for men's national teams. Their last win against an international team was 20 years ago in 2004.
Northern Ireland have only managed to win one out of their six group games. Their only win came against the same opponents back in March 2023 when Dion Charles scored a brace to help his team register a 2-0 win.
