Belarus get acquainted with Bosnia and Herzegovina
Belarus will meet Bosnia and Herzegovina for the first time at senior international level with both sides bidding for one of the top slots in UEFA EURO 2012 Group D.
• Belarus are second in the section, a point adrift of leaders France, but have played a game more than the section leaders and Bosnia and Herzegovina, who are two points behind them in third place.
• Belarus have yet to lose in four Group D home games, recording two wins and two draws; their guests have only won once in three games on the road in the section, 3-0 in Luxembourg.
• The nations' Under-19 sides met in a UEFA European Under-19 Championship mini-tournament in Sarajevo on 1 October 2010, with Belarus winning 2-1.
• Clubs from the two nations have met in two UEFA club competition ties; FK Željezničar – then part of Yugoslavia – beat FC Dinamo Minsk, at the time a Soviet side, in the 1984/85 UEFA Cup quarter-finals, winning 2-0 at home and drawing 1-1 in Belarus. More recently, NK Široki Brijeg beat FC Shakhtyor Soligorsk 1-0 home and away in a 2006/07 UEFA Champions League first qualifying round tie.
