Odds: 11/5 odds recorded 20:28 GMT on September 25th 2022 at Unibet
Montenegro and Finland square off in the final round of UEFA Nations League matches in Group B3.
Bosnia and Herzegovina have already won the section, so that’s off the table.
But neither of these are safe from relegation, however, so that is what will be on their minds on Monday.

Montenegro Preview – Draw Is Enough for Montenegro
Montenegro start the final round of fixtures in second place in Group B3.
A draw will ensure that they stay there and remain in the second tier for the next edition.
If they were to get beaten, they would likely still avoid relegation.
Bottom-side Romania would have to win and overturn a seven-goal swing to Montenegro as well, to survive at their expense.
So a draw is good enough for Montenegro realistically to shut the door on everything.
The match outright win odds for Montenegro is at 29/20*
It has been a W2 D1 L2 return that they have recorded in the group.
They have taken four points from their two home fixtures, a solid enough return.
Montenegro lost their latest match, a 1-0 reverse against group winners Bosnia and Herzegovina on Friday.
This will be their first time hosting Finland.
When they met them in Helsinki back in June, Montenegro lost 2-0.
There doesn’t seem to be a scenario here where a lot of goals are going to be flying around.
Under 2.5 goals at a quote of 8/15 which highlights that perfectly.
It boils down to Montenegro, who aren’t going to the World Cup, having a fairly stress-free night ahead of them.
Finland Preview – Finland Feel The Pressure
There is a little more pressure on Finland than in Montenegro for this match.
They are only a point above bottom team Romania.
So if Finland were to draw or lose and Romania win their final match, the Finnish would drop a tier.
Finland therefore, do have a job on their hands on Monday.
In the match outright for Montenegro vs Finland tips, the win for Finland is at 7/4*
Their record though in the group is obviously not terrific or else they wouldn’t be in this position.
It has been a return of W1 D2 L2 by Finland so far in the campaign.
Their one victory came in that 2-0 win in Helsinki against Montenegro.
Joel Pohjanpalo was the hero of the day for them there, scoring both goals.
