For this match, which is scheduled at the Grbavica Stadium in Sarajevo on 8th October, and for the duels in the 3rd and 4th rounds of the Nations League with the Netherlands on 11th October in Zenica, and with Poland in Warsaw three days later, head coach Dušan Bajević invited 30 players.
“We are playing three matches in 7 days, which will be very hard, even if no one gets injured or sick, so we decided to invite 30 of them to the preparations”, Bajević explained. The head coach added: “At this moment, we are most afraid of injuries, because our players will play another match until the gathering. I hope that there is nothing serious with Bičakčić and that he will appear at the roll call next week. We will only have three days until the meeting with Northern Ireland and we will try to use that time to the best of our ability to prepare and achieve the result we want.”
