Friday’s Nations League game at Podgorica City Stadium pits together Montenegro and Cyprus, with the hosts hoping to return to winning ways following a 2-2 draw with Slovakia. Genoa forward Milutin Osmajic will be one to watch after scoring in the weekend’s 2-1 defeat to Parma, while experienced duo Stefan Savic and Stevan Jovetic bring plenty of international know-how. Montenegro have won 40% of their last five home matches, scoring 1.60 goals per game, but they have also conceded 1.80 on average during that run.
Cyprus, on the other hand, head into the clash on the back of a confidence-boosting 2-0 victory over Liechtenstein. Loizos Loizou, Ioannis Pittas, and Grigoris Kastanos are the most notable names in the away side, who have been particularly solid on their travels. Cyprus have won 50% of their last four away games, conceding just 0.50 goals per match and keeping two clean sheets.
Montenegro’s home matches average 3.40 goals, while Cyprus have averaged 2.25 in their recent away games. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Over 1.5 goals, alongside Montenegro or Draw (home advantage and superior quality).
This Nations League match will be played on Friday 25 September 2026 at 19:45.
