Romania alongside France, England, Hungary, Portugal and Belgium were unbeaten during the Euro 2024 qualifying round. The hosts are undefeated in their last 11 matches across all competitions. They have won their last three games at home, by keeping a clean sheet. However, Romania are not a high-scoring side, but they are defensively strong. They scored 16 and conceded 5 goals 10 Euro 2024 qualifiers fixtures.
