Latvia vs Liechtenstein Prediction
Latvia have been in top form in their recent fixtures and are undefeated in their last five games across all competitions. The Blue-Reds, on the other hand, have not scored in their last seven games across all competitions, conceding 28 goals in that period.
Latvia have been the better side in this fixture and, given their home advantage, should be able to secure a win here.
Prediction: Latvia 2-0 Liechtenstein
