Prediction: 1-1
Romania
Montenegro will be looking to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Serbia when they host Romania at Stadion Pod Goricom on Tuesday evening. The Montenegrins sit in third place in the standings ahead of the last group game, but a win over Romania will see them climb to second position. However, seeing that Ljubisa Tumbakovic’s men will be without two key players Stefan Savic and Stevan Jovetic against the Tricolori, we do not believe that there is a big value in betting on the hosts. The Romanians recorded a routine 3-0 win over Lithuania on Saturday evening and seeing that they are undefeated in the UEFA Nations League, we predict that they are going to hold Montenegro to a draw in Podgorica. When the two teams met in Romania earlier in the process they played out a goalless draw, which is yet another reason why share of spoils is on the cards.
Highlighted Player (Marko Bakic):
Marko Bakic began his senior career at Mogren, playing 33 league games for the club between 2010 and 2012. On 30 August, 2012 he signed a two-year deal with Serie A team Torino and he made his debut with the club on May, 19 in a 2-2 draw against Catania.
The Montenegro international, who was born in Budva on 1 November, 1993, then moved to Fiorentina, but he made no more than three league appearances with the Viola from 2013 to 2016. After ending his loan spells with Spezia and Belenenses, he moved to Braga in 2016, penning a five-year contract. On 15 August, 2012 Marko Bakic made his Montenegro debut against Latvia at the age of 18. His main position is central midfield, but he is capable of playing as a defensive midfielder as well.
Marko Bakic made his Braga debut against Vitoria Guimaraes, replacing Rafa Silva in the second half of the match. Os Minhotos recorded a 1-0 win over Guimaraes back then.
Highlighted Team (Romania):
Romania were one of just four European sides to take part at the first ever World Cup in 1930, and the team have since achieved respectable results on the international stage, albeit failing to challenge for major trophies.
Led by arguably their best ever footballer Gheorghe Hagi, the Tricolorii narrowly missed out on the semi-finals at the 1994 World Cup in the United States, losing to Sweden on penalties. Romania made a total of seven appearances at the World Cup finals, while qualifying for five European Championship tournaments. The Tricolorii went the farthest in 2000, when they were eliminated by Italy in the quarter-finals.
Tied at the top of the goalscoring charts, Gheorghe Hagi and Adrian Mutu are the only two Romanian footballers to have gained worldwide recognition, but Dorinel Munteanu, Dan Petrescu, Gheorghe Popescu and Viorel Moldovan are also worth mention. Romania play their home games at the Arena National in Bucarest.
