How to Watch Bosnia & Herzegovina vs. Italy on TV, Live Stream

Four-time world champions Italy are desperate to bring their 12-year World Cup exile to an end on Tuesday night when they face Bosnia & Herzegovina in Zenica.
The Azzurri have failed to qualify for the previous two tournaments, and rather embarrassingly crashed out of the playoffs to North Macedonia in 2022. Thus, tension was rife in Bergamo when they faced Northern Ireland on Thursday, but Gennaro Gattuso’s side escaped its semifinal with a 2–0 win.
Sandro Tonali’s finish just before the hour mark allowed a scarred nation to breathe a collective sigh of relief, but another night of unbearable angst awaits the Azzurri, this time in hostile territory.
Bosnia are one-time World Cup appearance-makers, failing to make it out of their group in 2014, but a courageous victory in Wales has emboldened its hopes of competing in North America this summer. It’d take something special, though, with these two nations 58 places apart in FIFA’s world rankings.
Here’s how you can tune into Tuesday’s World Cup qualifying playoff final around the globe.
