Anthony Eadson has studied the Montenegro vs Latvia odds and expects the in-form hosts to see off a Latvia side struggling for goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Premium Tip<\/th>Odds<\/th>Why we’re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Nikola Krstovic to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>6\/4 (Sky Bet<\/a>)<\/td>Krstovic is Montenegro’s top scorer and the focal point of an attack that has found the net in every group game bar one. Latvia have conceded in three of their four matches and offer little going the other way, so with the Atalanta forward leading the line at home, 6\/4 for him to get on the scoresheet holds plenty of appeal.<\/td><\/tr>
Montenegro 2-0 Latvia<\/strong><\/td>5\/1 (bet365<\/a>)<\/td>Latvia have scored just twice all group and were beaten 2-1 by this same Montenegro side last month. The hosts are unbeaten and defensively sound, keeping a clean sheet in their last outing, so a controlled 2-0 at 5\/1 fits a game they should win without needing to overextend.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Montenegro go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Montenegro have made a flying start to this Nations League campaign, winning three and drawing one of their four games to sit top of Group 2 on 10 points, three clear of Cyprus<\/a>. Last time out they held firm for a 0-0 draw at home to Armenia<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That followed wins over Latvia (2-1), Armenia (3-2) and Cyprus (2-1), with Nikola Krstovic leading the scoring. Mirko Vucinic<\/a>‘s side have been free-scoring and hard to beat, and they will fancy their chances of another three points against the group’s bottom team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Latvia go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Latvia are bottom of Group 2 with a single point from four games, and goals have been their biggest problem, with just two scored all campaign. Last time out they lost 2-1 away to Cyprus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before that came a 1-2 home defeat to Montenegro, a goalless draw with Cyprus and a 2-0 loss to Armenia, leaving Paolo Nicolato<\/a>‘s side needing a big improvement. On the road against the group leaders, Latvia will likely set up to contain and hope to nick something on the break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Montenegro vs Latvia head-to-head<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These teams met only last month in this group, with Montenegro winning 2-1 in Riga. That recent result is the clearest guide to the gap between a Montenegro side leading the group and a Latvia team still looking for their first win, and with the return now in Podgorica, we expect the hosts to repeat the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montenegro vs Latvia score prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Montenegro have been the standout side in this group, unbeaten and already 2-1 winners over Latvia last month, and they return home with a clean sheet freshly banked. Latvia are organised but badly short of goals, so while they may frustrate for spells, we expect the hosts to find a way through and win to nil. Score prediction: Montenegro 2-0 Latvia.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
