They pulled off a memorable <strong>2-0 victory over Sweden<\/strong>, proving they can punch above their weight despite being the <strong>lowest-ranked nation in Group B (FIFA ranking #91)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slovenia, on the other hand, has found the early stages more difficult. After earning just one point from two matches \u2014 including a <strong>3-0 defeat to Switzerland<\/strong> \u2014 the visitors must rediscover the resilience that once took them to the <strong>2002 and 2010 World Cups<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2694\ufe0f Head-to-Head History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The rivalry between Kosovo and Slovenia is still young but familiar.
