Italy
The national team of Latvia unsuccessfully qualified for the forthcoming World Championship in Qatar and became the penultimate one in its group, beating only the main outsider of the stages, Gibraltar. The team of Dainis Kozakevichis is not considered a dangerous opponent by the standards of Europe, but is quite capable of equal competition with less classy opponents. In their last match the Latvians beat the Gibraltarians big (3:1) and before that they had not lost on the road to strong Norway (0:0).

North Macedonia
The North Macedonia national team has made significant progress in recent years. The Red Lions took part in the European Championship last summer, which in itself is already a great achievement, given the selection of players at the disposal of Blagoy Milievsky. North Macedonians could not leave the group, taking the last line in the group without points. In qualifying for the World Cup, North Macedonia fought against Germany, Romania, Armenia, Iceland and Liechtenstein. In such a company, the “red lions” were clearly not considered favorites for success, but during the qualification they showed themselves very powerfully, managing to create one of the main sensations of the selection, defeating Germany with a score 2:1 on its field. North Macedonia finished second behind the Germans, being ahead of Romania by one point. More accurate football predictions for free can be obtained from the link provided.
