Malta will hope to end a long wait for a competitive home win as they welcome Croatia to Ta' Qali for their final UEFA EURO 2016 Group H home fixture with the visitors in urgent need of a victory themselves. • Croatia, in third position and assured of at least a play-off place, are two points behind second-placed Norway but hold the edge on head-to-head record. To claim automatic qualification, they need to win in Malta and hope Norway fail to take three points from their trip to Group H leaders Italy in Rome. • Malta have taken two points from their first nine fixtures and will finish bottom even if they beat Croatia. Previous meetings • Luka Modrić scored on his 29th birthday and substitute Andrej Kramarić added a second as Croatia beat Malta 2-0 in the sides' Group H encounter in Zagreb in September 2014. • Malta's record in seven senior internationals against Croatia is W0 D1 L6 (W0 D1 L2 in Malta). That lone draw was a 1-1 home stalemate in 2006 FIFA World Cup qualifying, Stephen Wellman's second-half free-kick cancelling out Niko Kranjčar's 19th-minute opener. Form guide • Malta are without a victory in 23 competitive home matches (D4 L19) since a 2-1 success against Hungary in a EURO qualifier on 11 October 2006. • Croatia have won only one of their four Group H away fixtures (W1 D2 L1), and have failed to score in their last two away games in the section. Disciplinary • The latest booking list is available here: http://www.uefa.org/disciplinary/disciplinary-cases/booking-lists/index.html. Trivia and links • Malta reserve goalkeeper Henry Bonello turns 27 on 13 October, the day of Croatia's visit. • Croatia have taken on Malta in eight youth and age-group matches at international level in UEFA competition: all eight ended in Croatian victories, with no goals conceded. • Sides from these countries have met in 16 UEFA competition games, with the Croatian clubs' record reading W13 D2 L1 (W7 D1 L0 at home – W6 D1 L1 in Malta). That sole defeat was NK Slaven Koprivnica's 2-1 loss at Hibernians FC in a 2004 UEFA Intertoto Cup first-round tie; Slaven won the return fixture 3-0.

EURO finals: The UEFA European Championship was a four-team event in 1960, 1964, 1968, 1972 and 1976 (when the preliminary round and quarter-finals were considered part of qualifying).

From 1980 it was expanded to an eight-team finals and remained in that format in 1984, 1988 and 1992 until 1996, when the 16-team format was adopted. UEFA EURO 2016 was the first tournament to be played as a 24-team finals.

Records of inactive countries A number of UEFA associations have been affected by dissolution or splits of member associations. For statistical purposes, the records of these inactive countries have been allocated elsewhere: therefore, all Soviet Union matches are awarded to Russia; all West Germany – but not East Germany – matches are awarded to Germany; all Yugoslavia and Serbia & Montenegro matches are awarded to Serbia; all Czechoslovakia matches are allocated to both the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Abandoned/forfeited matches For statisical purposes, when a match has been started and then abandoned but later forfeited, the result on the pitch at the time of abandonment is counted. Matches that never started and were either cancelled or forfeited are not included in the overall statistics.
