Montenegro – Latvia : Preview & Prediction
Montenegro can take advantage of the opposition between the Netherlands (2nd) and Turkey (1st) to reduce their points gap over these two nations in the event of victory over modest Latvia. Montenegro, 4th, is only 3 lengths behind the Netherlands, 2nd. Montenegro sank on the lawn of Oranje (4-0) this Saturday evening a few days after having achieved a feat by hanging the Turkish leader on his land (2-2). The selection of Radulovic returns to its stage where it remains on 2 successes in front of Cyprus (4-0) in the League of Nations and against Gibraltar (4-1) during these Eliminations and on 2 defeats against Norway (0-1) and ahead of Israel (1-3) last June during a friendly meeting. Latvia has not shone in its last 4 performances where it suffered 3 losses against the German (1-7) in a friendly, in Estonia (2-1) in the Baltic Cup and in front of Norway (0-2) this Saturday on the last day of these Qualifiers. Latvians have only scored 1 success in Andorra (5-0) since November 2016 and have recorded 11 defeats (7 draws) in their last 19 trips to official competitions. A mediocre record which should increase after this trip to Podgorica.
Montenegro won the first leg 2-1 on March 24.
Montenegro is undefeated against Latvia: 2 wins and 1 draw.
Latvia have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
Since November 2016, Latvia has won only 1 away match, in Andorra (5-0)!
Montenegro have won 2 of their last 3 receptions.
Montenegro, victorious in the first leg, should add a new success to the counter in these Qualifiers which should bring it closer to qualifying places.
