Prediction :

 

Under 2.5 goals and both teams to score – NO

 

For the first time in their history, Latvia and Serbia will be facing off. The two nations are drawn to clash in Group K of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Below is our prediction for this match.

Latvia are already on a back foot here, heading into their fourth group match having lost once. They did well, though, in their last qualifier, drawing 1-1 with Albania to hit four points.

A win here could lift them to second in the standings. They only have two wins to show in their last 10 matches; against the Faroe Islands and Andorra. Failure to score in four of their last eight matches is among their biggest concerns heading into this match.

Serbia, like Latvia, are eyeing second spot in this match, and a win or a draw could deliver that. The visitors are unbeaten in the pool, having played just two matches.

After their opening 0-0 draw with Albania in the qualifiers, the Serbs thrashed bottom side Andorra 3-0 in the second match. Here they’ll not only be defending their unbeaten start but also their defensive solidity.

The visitors are unbeaten in their last six outings and only suffered two defeats in the last 10 matches. As they look to improve on three wins in 10 matches, Serbia will also hope to do better in attack, having failed to score in five of 10 games.

Our Latvia vs Serbia Prediction

Latvia and Serbia get to meet for the first time in this Group K qualifier. Both nations are looking to rise to second spot, with Albania not in action this week. A win for either will ensure that happens, but Serbia can also do with a draw.

One stat for both sides that could influence this match is in the goals market. Both aren’t very prolific scorers, and as a result, their matches have mostly had below three goals. Sticking to that, our prediction for Latvia v Serbia is for under 2.5 goals and both teams to score – NO.
