Romania, winless in four matches, faces Ukraine aiming for a fourth straight head-to-head victory in their Euro 2024 opener.
Romania heads into Euro 2024 struggling for form, with head coach Edward Iordănescu hoping his team can turn it around when it counts. They’ve played to back-to-back 0-0 draws against Bulgaria and Liechtenstein, making it four games without a win (D3, L1) as they prepare for their first major tournament since 2016.
In competitive matches, Romania has shown resilience, remaining unbeaten since a 3-0 defeat to Montenegro in June 2022 (W7, D5). However, they have never won their opening game at a European Championship (D3, L2), which casts doubt on their ability to start strong. Notably, Romania has scored first in only four of their last 16 European Championship games.
Ukraine looks to capitalize on Romania’s struggles, aiming for their fourth consecutive win in this head-to-head matchup.
They secured their place at the Euros by beating Bosnia and Iceland in play-offs and hope to advance past the group stage for just the second time, having reached the quarter-finals three years ago. A convincing 4-0 victory over Moldova in their final warm-up game has boosted their confidence.

Serhiy Rebrov, Ukraine’s manager, has called on his players to give their best for the fans back home, especially in light of the ongoing conflict with Russia.
Key player George Pușcaș has been crucial for Romania, with the team winning eight of the nine games in which he has scored. However, they face a tough challenge against Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, who has only one loss in 12 matches, with six clean sheets.
With both teams looking to make a strong start, this match promises to be an intriguing battle in the Euro 2024 group stage.
