This UEFA Nations League preview looks at Latvia vs Montenegro prediction, with Montenegro arriving as clear favorites in League C - Group B. Latvia sit bottom of their group with just one point from two games, having failed to score in either match, drawing 0-0 with Cyprus before losing 2-0 away to Armenia.
Montenegro, by contrast, top the group unbeaten with two wins from two, netting five goals in the process including a 3-2 win over Armenia and a 2-1 victory against Cyprus. Their attacking form contrasts sharply with Latvia's toothless output in front of goal.
No head-to-head meetings between these sides fall within the last two years, so recent history offers little guidance here. The bookmaker consensus heavily favors Montenegro at 50.2% implied probability, and the underlying numbers back that up — a points-per-game differential of -2.50 and a stark gap in scoring output.
Latvia's home form (one draw, no wins, no goals scored in their solitary home game this campaign) doesn't inspire confidence against a Montenegro side that has scored in every recent outing. Expect Montenegro to control possession and create the better chances, with Latvia's defensive resilience being tested throughout. The pick here is a Montenegro win, driven by their superior attacking quality and Latvia's inability to find the net so far this competition.

There is no head-to-head meeting between Latvia and Montenegro within the last two years — their most recent encounters date back to 2021 and earlier, making them not directly relevant to current form. With no recent H2H pattern to lean on, this match should be assessed purely on current form and league standing, both of which strongly favor Montenegro heading into this Nations League clash.

Latvia have started this Nations League campaign poorly, drawing 0-0 with Cyprus at home before losing 2-0 away to Armenia — a run that has left them bottom of the group with a single point. They have failed to score in both matches, a worrying sign against a Montenegro side with goals in their locker. Their solitary home outing yielded just a draw and zero goals. With a goal difference of -2 and a points-per-game average of just 0.5, defensive solidity has been the only positive, evidenced by one clean sheet. Latvia will need a much-improved attacking display to trouble Montenegro on home soil.

Montenegro have been the standout side in this group, winning both opening fixtures to sit top with a maximum six points. They beat Cyprus 2-1 at home before edging a 3-2 away win over Armenia, scoring five goals across the two games. Their away form has been particularly strong, winning their sole away fixture this campaign. Averaging 2.5 goals scored per game against 1.5 conceded shows an attacking approach that doesn't always shut out opponents, but the end results have been positive. Montenegro's attacking players have consistently found the net, and that firepower should give Latvia's defense problems on the road.
Latvia vs Montenegro - Match Analysis
Montenegro top their Nations League group unbeaten with two wins and five goals scored, while Latvia sit bottom with just one point and no goals in either game. The points-per-game gap of 2.50 in Montenegro's favor, combined with their away win already this campaign, gives bookmakers strong reason to price them at 50.2% implied probability for this fixture.
Draw No Bet: Montenegro is the standout alternative, offering protection against a possible 0-0 stalemate given Latvia's defensive solidity, while still capturing most of Montenegro's win probability. Over/Under goals markets are trickier here since Latvia have failed to score in both games, making Under 2.5 Goals a reasonable secondary consideration if Latvia's attack remains blunt.
Montenegro sit top of League C - Group B and a win would all but confirm their promotion push, while Latvia are rooted at the bottom facing a real threat of relegation from this tier. For Latvia, avoiding defeat is crucial to keep any faint promotion-playoff hopes alive, while Montenegro will want to maintain their perfect start.
