Latvia Preview – Can Latvia hold up visitors?
Latvia have no hope of qualifying for the World Cup but Monday night’s hosts can at least make life difficult for Turkey as they prepare for this upcoming clash at the Stadions Skonto as the hosts look to break a three-match run without a win in these qualifiers.
A 2-0 loss to Norway and a 1-0 defeat to Netherlands, both at home, have been either side of a 0-0 draw away from home at Montenegro but although the Latvia have picked up just one win throughout their World Cup qualifying campaign, goals may be in short supply here.
Four of Latvia’s seven games have resulted in under 2.5 goals while six of their last nine home games overall in all competitions have been under 2.5 goals.
Turkey Preview – Can Turkey stay in frame?
3rd placed Turkey will be keen to stay in the frame for a possible top two finish in Group G when they travel to Latvia for this important clash on Monday night with the visitors looking to return to winning ways.
Following a 3-0 win away from home at whipping boys, Gibraltar, Turkey themselves suffered a heavy 6-1 defeat away at Netherlands which was followed by a creditable point thanks to a 1-1 draw at home with Norway.
Turkey have won two of their three away games to date in these qualifiers with wins in Norway and Gibraltar and they’ve also lost just three of their last 11 away qualifiers; six of Turkey’s last 11 away qualifiers have also resulted in under 2.5 goals.
