Bosnia & Herzegovina and Montenegro will battle for the top spot in Group 3 of League B in Nations League round five on Friday night at the Bilino Polje.
Both sides have made impressive campaigns in the UEFA Nations League this season and are separated by just one point at the top of Group 3 in League B.
Bosnia & Herzegovina lead the group on eight points from four matches, having won two and drawn two, while Montenegro sit second on seven points, having won two, drawn one and lost one of their four matches.
A win for the host will seal their promotion to League A, but a win for Montenegro will take things to the final day as they will then be two points above their Friday hosts. Therefore, both sides will be out all guns blazing for maximum points, although Bosnia will fancy their chances following a home advantage, where they have been impressive lately.
But they will need to play at the top of their game as the visitors are coming off a confidence-boosting 3-0 away win over Romania.
