Latvia vs Armenia Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 15 November 2026
📢 How will Latvia’s match against Armenia end in the final round of Nations League C at Skonto Stadium in Riga?

Moreover, thanks to changes to the tournament format, neither team faces relegation. Still, neither side will want to end such a disappointing campaign on a low note.

Armenia dominate the head-to-head record
📊 Latvia and Armenia have met five times in recent years, with Armenia holding a clear advantage. They have won four of those matches, while Latvia have won just once. In the first round of the current Nations League, Armenia also beat Latvia convincingly at home (2:0).
Head-to-head statistics Latvia - Armenia
Latvia are hopelessly bottom of the table
Latvia returned to League C after promotion from League D, but establishing themselves at the new level has proved difficult. Even before the tournament began, few expected the national team to achieve much, and the results have only confirmed those concerns. Latvia have picked up just one point in five matches, with four defeats and one draw. They are firmly rooted to the bottom of the table and cannot move off it even if they beat Armenia.
In the previous round, Latvia had a good opportunity to add to their points tally despite playing away to a much stronger Montenegro side. They kept the score at 0-0 for a long time, and in the 57th minute their opponents went down to ten men. It seemed the numerical advantage should help the visitors secure at least a draw, but the opposite happened. Even with ten men, Montenegro scored twice against Latvia and won 2-1.
Match Results: Latvia
Armenia remain in League C again
Armenia also have little to celebrate. After five Nations League matches, they have picked up just five points and sit third in their group, although they had hoped to challenge for promotion before the tournament began. Those hopes have now been extinguished: even a win over Latvia combined with a Cyprus defeat would not lift Armenia into second place. They will remain in League C once again.
Things could have turned out differently had Armenia beaten Cyprus in the previous round. Home advantage, a stronger squad and their status as favourites meant almost everything was in the hosts’ favour. Armenia also looked considerably more convincing throughout the match, controlled play and created far more dangerous chances. However, they could not make their superiority count. The match ended in a 1:1 draw, which definitively ended Armenia’s chances of challenging for second place.

Latest news
Latvia
❌ Markuss Strods missed the match against Montenegro due to illness, so his availability for the game against Armenia remains in doubt. Maksims Toņiševs did not travel to the previous match for family reasons related to the birth of a child. It is not yet known whether he will be available for the upcoming game.
Armenia
❌ Armenia have no new absentees after their 1-1 draw with Cyprus, but the national team still have selection problems. Eduard Spertsyan, Sergey Muradyan, Julio Bueno, Henry Avagyan and Finn Geragusyan were left out of the November squad due to injuries.
Predicted Lineups
📋 Latvia’s Predicted starting XI: Matrevics - Jurkovskis, Melniks, Cernomordijs, Vientiess, Cirkin - Daskevics, Vapne, Zelenkovs, Ciganiks - Uldrikis.
📋 Armenia’s Predicted starting XI: Mishiev - Bandikyan, Harutyunyan, Mkrtchyan, Tiknizyan - Karlen Hovhannisyan, Iwu - Narek Grigoryan, Serobyan, Shaghoyan - Gharibyan.
Total Goals Prediction
Armenia’s defence is one of the national team’s main weaknesses. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 30 of their last 32 competitive matches. Even Latvia, who are struggling badly, could exploit this vulnerability, especially with home support. Our pick is Latvia to score at 1.40*.
Corners Prediction
Armenia have a stronger squad than Latvia and will almost certainly try to take the initiative from the opening minutes. The visitors should spend more time in the opposition half, attack more actively and end their attacks with shots and low crosses more often. In these circumstances, a bet on Armenia to win the most corners should come in without too much trouble.
Yellow Cards Prediction
Both teams’ tournament fate has already been decided, so neither side will want to risk injury unnecessarily. Besides, their first meeting was almost entirely free of rough play, with just one yellow card between them. Our pick is Total Yellow Cards - Under 3.5.
Player Prop Bet
Artur Garibyan was one of Armenia’s standout players in their previous match against Cyprus, scoring a goal. He has not had enough playing time at club level, so he tries to enjoy his football as much as possible with the national team and contributes in attack. After a good performance, the forward will surely try to play well against Latvia too. Our bet is Artur Garibyan to score.
High-Risk Bet
With no pressure from the standings, the teams could well treat fans to entertaining football. Neither side will hold back for fear of dropping points, and both teams often make defensive errors, so a high-scoring match looks like a realistic possibility. Those willing to take a risk can back Total Goals - Over 3.5 at odds of 3.40*.
Safer Bet
Latvia have struggled to get positive results, and even home advantage rarely helps them: they have failed to win eight of their last nine competitive home matches. Armenia are the stronger side and are quite capable of taking points away from home against opponents like Latvia. Our reliable pick is Armenia to Win or Draw at odds of 1.37*.
If the Match Takes a Different Turn
Despite Armenia’s obvious defensive problems, an away clean sheet should not be ruled out. Take their away match against Montenegro (0:0), for example, when Armenia managed to contain a strong opponent and keep a clean sheet. If they show similar discipline again, Latvia, who are struggling in attack, will find it difficult to score. Our alternative bet is Latvia to Score - No at odds of 3.20*.
*The odds are approximate and may vary between bookmakers.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Bookmakers consider Armenia slight favourites for the upcoming match, and there are reasons for that. Latvia have produced extremely poor results: since January 2024, they have recorded just five wins, including friendlies. Those victories came exclusively against modest opposition - Andorra, Gibraltar (twice) and the Faroe Islands (twice). Armenia are clearly a stronger side than those teams and are capable of taking all three points even away from home, especially as they beat Latvia convincingly in the first meeting. Our main bet is therefore Armenia to win. Predicted score: 1:3.
Will this prediction come true?
