Moldova take on the visitors Latvia in the round 3 match in League D of Nations League. The match will be played on Friday, June 10th at Stadionul Zimbru (Chişinău).
Moldova slipped into the weakest division of the tournament. Bessarabians" started at this level, but in the first draw, they turned out to be stronger here, and there was even some hope of getting a “preferential” ticket to Euro 2020. It did not work out, and with stronger opponents, the Moldovans traditionally have little success. In last year's qualification, for example, it turned out to take only 1 draw in the entire cycle, with the Faroe Islands - of course, this ended in last place. In March, the team played in the "survival playoff" and, losing at home to Kazakhstan, managed to win minimally on the road. But in the penalty shootout, the opposing goalkeeper turned out to be stronger. The summer began with meetings with the underdogs, first with Liechtenstein, and then with Andorra. Moreover, it turned out to beat the first one 2-0 on the road, but opponents didn’t score goals in the second match.

Latvia at this level will claim the maximum possible. The Red-Whites even have Euro experience behind them - this happened in 2004. But both before and after that, it was not possible to demonstrate anything more than frankly mediocre results. In the selection for the 2022 World Cup, 9 points were taken, however, most of them were with Gibraltar. At the same time, the Latvians have already failed twice in the League of Nations, really not showing anything even at the lowest level of this tournament. The Balts started June by hosting Andorra, and defeated the outsider 3-0 with a double from Uldrikis. After 3 days, Liechtenstein was already visiting Riga, and he resisted unexpectedly longer. But in the end, Zyuzin was able to score the only goal.
All 3 fights played fit in the range of 2007-2009. Moldova won the first friendly game. But in the selection for the 2010 World Cup, both times Latvia was stronger. Latvia is in the lead in the group, and will definitely try to gain a foothold, having won on the field of the main competitor. We bet on visitors, but with a handicap of "0".
Prediction for the match: Latvia to win with 0.0 handicap.
