Gibraltar vs Montenegro prediction, preview, team news and more | 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers
Montenegro will look to score three more points in Group G of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers when playing away against Gibraltar on Friday.
With two wins and eight points from six games so far, the Brave Falcons sit fourth in the table behind the Netherlands, Norway and Turkey.
Having started their campaign with back-to-back victories against Latvia and Gibraltar, the Balkan outfit failed to win any of their next four games. They were also left battered 4-0 by the Oranje.
But Miodrag Radulović's side now have a chance to return to winning ways against the hapless Gibraltar side who have lost all six of their qualifying games.
Lithuania and San Marino are the only other teams in the UEFA zone with such an unwanted record.
Ranked a lowly 197th in the world, Los Llanis have conceded 25 goals in the process, whilst scoring only thrice, including two penalties.

Gibraltar will be hoping to get a point before their campaign ends, although that's a difficult prospect given how poor they've been so far.
Montenegro have a good attacking frontline and should make a meal of the home side's weaknesses at the back.
