Montenegro and Liechtenstein can still just about dream of a place at UEFA EURO 2016 as they come together for a second time after an inconclusive first encounter in Group G.

Previous meetings
• Montenegro had 28 shots to Liechtenstein's three when the sides first locked horns in Group G, yet the first meeting between the two nations ended 0-0 in Vaduz.

Disciplinary
• Montenegro defender Marko Simić misses out through suspension. Mirko Vučinić is a yellow card away from a one-game ban.

• Liechtenstein forward Sandro Wieser is a booking away from a suspension.

Form guide
• Montenegro have not won in five Group G games (D2 L3) since a 2-0 opening-day triumph over Moldova.

• Liechtenstein's 1-0 victory in Moldova in their last Group G away match ended a 26-game wait (D3 L23) for a competitive away success.

• Should Liechtenstein win, they will move onto eight points, surpassing their best final total for a UEFA European Championship qualifying campaign – achieved on the road to UEFA EURO 2008 – and equalling their highest ever qualifying tally, amassed in the race to reach the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

Trivia and links
• Montenegro's Dejan Damjanović hit the woodwork during the stalemate in Liechtenstein; he has now found the frame of the goal three times in UEFA EURO 2016 qualifying – more than any other player.

• Liechtenstein have only once managed to avoid finishing last in their qualification group, signing off their 2006 World Cup bid second-bottom.

• Liechtenstein and Montenegro have yet to meet in any UEFA age-group, women's or futsal competition – and there have been no encounters between the nations' clubs either.
