Our prediction for this World Cup 2026 match:
Buoyed by a 3-1 win over Gibraltar, Montenegro will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Faroe Islands at Stadion Gradski (Niksic). Robert Prosinecki’s men did win their 2026 World Cup qualifying opener, but their performance against Gibraltar was anything but promising. Given their difficulties at the back, home win should not be considered this time out. Lazio wing-back Adam Marusic is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the first group game, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The visitors, meanwhile, produced a fine display in a 2-1 loss to Czech Republic, which is probably the main reason why we predict they will hold Montenegro to a draw in Niksic. As Jann Benjaminsen limped off with injury in the Malsovicka arena defeat, fellow defender Joannes Danielsen should be recalled to the Faroe Islands’ starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Montenegro):

Montenegro is yet another former Yugoslavian republic. The Montenegrins declared their independence in 2006 and they played their first official match under the name of Montenegro in March, 2007. The Hrabri sokoli defeated Hungary in their first official game, with the team coming from behind to beat the Hungarians.
Serie A superstar Mirko Vucinic and Igor Burzanovic scored for Montenegro in the 2-1 triumph over Hungary. Montenegro national football team participated in the UEFA Euro 2012 playoffs and that is regarded as the team’s biggest success. The Hrabri sokoli faced Czech Republic in the double-header, but they eventually failed to book their place at the showpiece tournament in Poland and Ukraine.
Aforementioned attacker Mirko Vucinic is seen as one of the most famous footballers who played for the Montenegro national team, but we should mention former Manchester City ace Stevan Jovetic as well. Montenegro play their home games at Stadion Pod Goricom and they recorded their biggest win against San Marino (6-0) in September, 2012.
