Latvia will face off against North Macedonia in a UEFA Nations League match at Stadions Skonto in Riga. Latvia started the season with a win over the Faroe Islands, while North Macedonia defeated Armenia in their opening match.

Latvia, after earning promotion from League D, is competing in their first League C campaign. They have had a mixed start in the league, losing to Armenia but bouncing back with a win over the Faroe Islands. They will be looking to secure their first-ever victory against North Macedonia.

North Macedonia, on the other hand, is aiming for promotion after a disappointing campaign in the previous edition of the Nations League. They started this season with a draw against the Faroe Islands and a win against Armenia, despite playing with 10 men.

In terms of form, Latvia has won three of their last four Nations League home games, while North Macedonia is looking to secure consecutive victories in the same campaign.

Latvia’s possible lineup may include Matrevics, Jurkovskis, Balodis, Tobers, Savalnieks, Zelenkovs, Saveljevs, Ciganiks, Varslavans, Gutkovskis, and Ikaunieks. North Macedonia could line up with Dimitrievski, Musliu, Serafimov, Manev, Dimoski, Babunski, Alimi, Churlinov, Bardhi, Elmas, and Miovski.

In predicting the outcome of the match, North Macedonia is favored to win 2-0 based on their higher FIFA World Ranking and previous head-to-head victories over Latvia.

Overall, it is expected to be an exciting clash between Latvia and North Macedonia, with both teams aiming to secure crucial points in the Nations League.
