Albania started the World Cup qualifications steadily, winning four points from their matches against England, Andorra, and Serbia. These results show that the team is competitive, even against strong opponents. Furthermore, in the previous Nations League campaign, the Albanians achieved impressive victories in their visits to Ukraine and Georgia - two successes that highlight their strong form away from home.
Latvia with attacking problemsLatvia, on the other hand, seems to be experiencing serious difficulties lately. The team has only won two of their last seven home matches, both against the Faroe Islands - an opponent of significantly lower level. Furthermore, Latvia has failed to score more than one goal in any of their last 16 matches. This lack of effectiveness is a clear indication of the team's offensive problems.
Prediction: Victory for AlbaniaBased on the performance of both teams, especially Albania's away record and Latvia's poor scoring record, a victory for the visitors seems like the most likely outcome of the match. I expect the Albanians to impose control and secure the three points in Riga.
