Third will host second in Group J on Monday evening, with Luxembourg and Slovakia battling to join section leaders Portugal in qualifying for next summer's European Championship.
Luxembourg have picked up 11 points from their seven matches in the section to sit in third position, while Slovakia have 13 points from their seven games, which has left them in second spot.
This is already the team's best-ever points return in terms of a qualification campaign for a European Championship, having won three, drawn two and lost two of their seven matches to collect 11 points, which has left them in third position in the group.
Portugal have already qualified for Euro 2024 from this group, but Slovakia in second are only two points above Luxembourg, demonstrating the importance of this match.
As it stands, fourth-placed Bosnia-Herzegovina and fifth-placed Iceland can also sneak into the top two, but the picture will change after Monday's matches, and a win for Luc Holtz's side here would put them in an excellent spot ahead of their last two games in November against Bosnia-Herzegovina and Liechtenstein.
