Prediction: 1-1
Faroe Islands
Latvia will be aiming to bounce back from a heavy defeat to Armenia when they take on Faroe Islands in their first group game. The Latvians have been struggling in the Nations League, with the team failing to win the previous three games in the competition. Even though there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, all Balodis, Zelenkovs, and Gutkovskis could sneak into the starting XI.
The Faroese, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with North Macedonia in their opener. As both Faroe Islands and Latvia are eager to record their first triumph of the process, we are tempted to place our bets on both teams to score. You should know that both sides managed to find the net in three of the previous four meetings between the two sides in all competitions. Roskilde defender Hordur Askham is widely expected to return to Faroe Islands’ starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Latvia):
Latvia is yet another former Soviet republic. The Latvian footballers played for the Soviet Union national team until 1992 and they have been playing for Latvia ever since. The Sarkanbaltsarkanie (Red-white-red) did remarkably well to qualify for the Euro 2004 finals, but they failed to impress at the showpiece tournament in Portugal.
Latvia kicked off their Euro 2004 campaign with a 2-1 loss to Czech Republic and they managed to hold Germany to a goalless draw in their second group game. The former Soviet republic suffered a 3-0 loss to Netherlands in their last game in Group D and, as a result, they did not make it to the knockout stages of the European Championship finals.
Latvia suffered their biggest defeat on May 29, 1927 when they were beaten by Sweden 12-0 in Stockholm. Speaking of their biggest victory, the Latvians outclassed Lithuania 5-0 on two occasions. The Latvian national football team play their home games at Skonto stadium in Riga and the capacity of the venues is 9.500.
