Bosnia and Herzegovina
Bosnia and Herzegovina end a 12-year drought with their second tournament appearance — the first since debutant Brazil 2014. Sergej Barbarez, the legendary striker turned coach, has rebuilt around Edin Džeko's last dance and a new generation that came of age post-AS Roma. Ermedin Demirović (Stuttgart) and Sead Kolašinac stabilise the spine; Adnan Janjatović is emerging on the wing. The fairy-tale 2014 group with Argentina and Nigeria offered a four-point exit; this time, Group B with Canada, Qatar and Switzerland is more navigable. Knockout-round qualification is realistic for a side that finished runner-up in their UEFA Nations League group two years before kickoff.
