Latvia
LDDLWL
Since tasting defeat last time out to North Macedonia in Nations League competition, Latvia and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
In that game, Latvia managed 47% possession and 11 attempts at goal with 2 on target. On the other side, North Macedonia got 14 attempts on goal with 7 on target. Jani Atanasov (35'), Lirim Qamili (70') and Eljif Elmas (93') scored for North Macedonia.
The stats don’t lie, and Latvia have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 10 goals overall. Defensively, Latvia have not been doing too well. That trend might not be carried forward into this next game, of course.

We’re of the opinion that Latvia may find it difficult to break down this Faroe Islands team who we reckon will get the vital goal that wins it.
We’ve gone for a very even contest with a 1-0 advantage for Faroe Islands at the end of the match.
Should be an interesting one.
