Slovenia is moving up the FIFA rankings, but very slowly: a draw with Austria and a win over Kazakhstan are worth a jump up a place

The International Football Federation (FIFA) has released the latest rankings of the strongest national teams in the world. There have been no changes among the top ten. Argentina remains at the top, followed by France and Spain. Slovenia has made slight progress this time. Previously ranked at 52nd place on the FIFA rankings, they have now moved up to position number 51. Despite reaching the round of 16 in Euro 2024, remaining unbeaten in four matches, and continuing their streak in the UEFA Nations League, Slovenia has yet to break into the top 50 national teams in the world.
Slovenia’s highest FIFA ranking came in 2010, when, after participating in the World Cup in South Africa, they were ranked as high as the 15th best team for two months. Their lowest ranking was in 1994, when they were in 134th place, though it should be noted that they had only just started their independent national journey. Slovenia’s average FIFA ranking is 54th place, meaning they are currently performing slightly above their historical average.
