On Monday, October 14, Wales will host Montenegro in a crucial Nations League B Group 4 match at the Cardiff City Stadium. The Welsh team, under the management of Craig Bellamy, is looking to strengthen their position in the group after a recent 2-2 draw against Iceland.
Wales has had a relatively strong start to the Nations League campaign, with five points from their first three matches, placing them second in the group behind Turkey. They have yet to lose in this edition of the Nations League and have won three of their last six home matches.
Montenegro, on the other hand, is struggling, having lost all three of their matches in the group and sitting at the bottom. They have suffered five consecutive losses in 2024 and have scored only one goal in their last three matches. The team’s current form under coach Robert Prosinecki is their worst in over a decade.
The match is expected to be one-sided, with Wales favored to win. Bookmakers have projected odds of 1.6 for a Wales victory, while Montenegro is at 6.1. The last encounter between the two teams ended in a 2-1 win for Wales, and similar outcomes are predicted for this match.
Wales will be without Brennan Johnson and Jordan James due to suspensions, while Montenegro will miss centre-back Stefan Savic and striker Milutin Osmajic. Despite these absences, Wales is expected to make a strong start and capitalize on Montenegro’s defensive vulnerabilities.
The match will be broadcast live on S4C and BBC iPlayer, offering fans the opportunity to watch the action unfold. Given the form and home advantage of Wales, it is likely that the Dragons will secure a victory and edge closer to promotion from League B.
