Luxembourg secured a commanding 3–0 victory over Malta in the UEFA Nations League Promotion/Relegation Play-off, dominating possession with 63 per cent and generating a superior expected goals tally of 2.25 to Malta's 1.53. The home side's control was evident in their shot count, registering 13 attempts with six on target, whilst Malta managed 13 shots but only five found the target, with their goalkeeper saving at just 50 per cent. Danel Sinani netted for Luxembourg, who operated in a 4–3–3 formation and benefited from a commanding defensive display; their goalkeeper made five saves from six shots faced, achieving a clean sheet. Malta's 4–2–3–1 setup offered limited attacking threat despite matching Luxembourg's shot volume, unable to capitalise on their opportunities as the visitors' goalkeeper faced a higher volume of attempts. The emphatic margin reflects the gulf in execution between the two sides. Luxembourg's play-off position now looks significantly strengthened.
