Latvia vs Serbia prediction

In Group K of UEFA qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, England have very unconvincingly won all four of their matches, with Albania on four points from four, with Serbia having collected four points from two games, with the always underwhelming Serbs having recently dropped points in a goalless draw in Tirana against the Albanians, before hammering Andorra by three goals to nil, who have also been beaten by Latvia.

The Latvians are a team that have been declining from an already low ebb over the last decade, and they have fallen into the category of being among the very weakest sides in European international football.

Serbia are often a side that cannot be trusted, especially when playing away from home, but even in Riga, the Serbians should come out on top in this one this weekend.
