In their last three outings, Latvia won 1-0 against Liechtenstein, beat Moldova by 2-4 and hammered Liechtenstein 0-2. Latvia won twice in their last six matches on home soil, as they also drew one and suffered three defeats. They hit the target six times while letting six goals in.

Moldova claimed four points in their last three matches, starting by a 0-0 draw with Andorra. A 2-4 defeat against Latvia was next up, before beating Andorra by 2-1. Moldova secured just one win from their last six outings away from home, from which they also drew two and three games. They scored ten goals while conceding 13 as well.

Latvia enter their final home match in the UEFA Nations League group stages as number one in their group having claimed maximum points. Surely, they'll be eager to keep their momentum going in front of their home supporters.

Moldova are in the running of reaching the semifinals of the UEFA Nations League, but they need to stay focused to get there. While seven points is a decent outcome at this stage, it doesn't guarantee a place in the next round.

Latvia are well up for the task of building on their current momentum, and we expect them to deliver the goods in their upcoming clash at Daugava Stadium against visitors Moldova.

Latvia have five wins on the bounce.
