Latvia and Albania will go head-to-head in the search for three points in a World Cup qualifier scheduled for Tuesday. This match finds the two nations one point apart, Albania in second spot and Latvia third. Read on for our prediction of the match.

Hosts Latvia started off their campaign with a 1-0 win over Andorra. Their second outing was, however, a tough one, and they fell 3-0 to England.

Matchday three should be manageable as they meet Albania for the first time in over two decades. A lack of goals will be the major issue to address for Latvia.

They warmed up for this game with a 0-0 draw against Azerbaijan, making it four games in seven without scoring.

Albania have the same concern coming into this game. Their opening match of the qualifiers produced a 0-0 draw with Serbia, which was also the third time in five that they failed to score.

It is such outcomes that have left Albania without a positive run heading here. The visitors’ only win in five matches was an expected one – a 3-0 victory against Andorra.

In the other game they scored, it ended 2-1 against Ukraine. Albania haven't strung together consistent results, and that will affect their confidence. In the last 12 matches, they managed only three wins.
