Latest football match prediction: Latvia vs Albania

The home team was completely outmatched by England in their most recent encounter, having to defend against 27 shots, 5 clear-cut chances, and suffering an xG (expected goals) of over 3.5, while they only created one significant opportunity themselves.

Latvia drew 0-0 with Azerbaijan on June 7th in their last match – a game in which they kept a clean sheet for the second time in their last three games.

However, coach Paolo Nicolato is certainly concerned that his team has only scored 3 goals in their last 7 matches, and has failed to score in 4 of them.

Wolves' form has been quite poor, with only one win in their last seven matches, while suffering four defeats.

Latvia also failed to win in their last three home games – losing two – despite having won two consecutive matches just before this run.

Conversely, Albania only generated 0.26 xG from open play against Serbia, but they also limited their opponent's open play to under 0.5 xG.

The two teams have met a total of four times, and all four matches ended in a draw, including the most recent 3-3 draw in September 1999.

England currently leads the group with 9 points and holds the only position that guarantees direct qualification to the World Cup finals. Therefore, coach Sylvinho understands that his team is facing fierce competition for second place in the group to secure a play-off spot.

Albania's form has been average, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 matches across all competitions. While they kept 4 clean sheets, they only scored 5 goals.

Albania's away record isn't particularly impressive either, with 2 losses in their last 5 away games and 2 wins.
