Latvia vs Canada prediction

Latvia were impressive in victory over France by four points to one in their opening game. This despite them falling behind after 15 minutes of play. They showed real resilience to come back in dominating fashion but another slow start from them here will see the Latvians severely punished against Canada.

Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon, Macklin Celebrini and co got off to a winning start and looked good in all departments from back to front. Canada will go very deep in the competition and Crosby playing center on the second line underlines the unrelenting strength of the Canadians from an offensive perspective. Back them to inflict a first defeat of the tournament on Latvia.
