Malta will be playing its second match of the Nations League on Thursday and is currently tied for the lead in Group D2.
In its first match, the team took down San Marino 2-0, with Jan Busuttil and Matthew Guillaumier each scoring goals. The team took 15 shots to San Marino’s three, with a 5-0 advantage in shots on target.
Malta is enjoying a good run in 2022. It’s won three of its four matches, with the lone loss coming to Venezuela 1-0 in a friendly. Can it keep the momentum going and earn promotion?

Estonia opened Nations League play with a 2-0 win over San Marino. Robert Kirss and Joonas Tamm each scored goals. Estonia led 11-7 in total shots but tied San Marino in shots on target. Considering San Marino’s international reputation, it wasn’t the best showing for Estonia.
Because its group is made up of just three teams, Estonia played a friendly on Sunday with Argentina, losing 5-0.
That was the second loss in three games of Estonia, which also lost 2-0 to Cyprus in March in the Nations League relegation play-out.
Predicted Estonia starting XI: Kuusk, Tamm, Mets, Zenjov, Vassiljev, Kreida, Kait, Sinyavskiy, Kirss, Sorga; Hein
