Slovakia vs Latvia prediction
Not many nations will be afforded success against Canada in this tournament and they took Slovakia to the cleaners on Saturday. Two goals for Sidney Crosby helped put the Slovakians to the sword, who have little time to recover from such a beat down, with Latvia on deck. With just a point separating the two, this is a big one in the race to finish in the top four.
As of now, Slovakia holds the cards as they sit in fourth-place heading into Sunday. But fifth-placed Latvia must be believing now and their slightly better offense may well be what proves the difference in this encounter.
