Bahamas - Sint Maarten team news and expert analysis
The Islanders spent two consecutive cycles in League B. However, they played the previous edition at this lower level and failed to impress, earning just four points from four matches. In the race for the World Cup, they lasted until the summer of last year, but were underdogs in their group when it mattered most. After that, they suffered nothing but defeats in friendly matches.
The representatives of the French overseas collectivity played in League B for the first time in the previous Nations League cycle. They even won twice in six matches, but four defeats sent them down to the tournament's lower tier. Still, they won three of their four FIFA Series matches in November and March, suffering just one defeat.
The Bahamas scored an average of 1.2 goals per match but conceded as many as 3.9. The visitors have a much better, although still negative, record: they score 1.6 goals per game and concede 1.7.
