Montenegro vs Faroe Prediction 25 March 2025
π Can Montenegro kick off their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign with back-to-back wins? The team has a favorable schedule. After defeating Gibraltar 3-1, they will host the Faroe Islands at home. However, the Scandinavians put up a fight against the Czech Republic on the road, so they shouldn't be underestimated. Hereβs our prediction for the upcoming match.
Head-to-Head
This will be the first-ever match between Montenegro and the Faroe Islands.
Head-to-head statistics Montenegro - Faroe
Montenegro Team Overview
Montenegro's recent performances have been far from impressive. The team has suffered 7 defeats in their last 9 matches, often failing to find the back of the net. They were relegated from the second tier of the Nations League, managing to secure just 3 points. Even their 3-1 victory over Gibraltar raised several questions. Robert ProsineΔki's side outperformed their opponents in every statistical category (3.29-1.31 xG, 25-7 in shots, and 4-1 in big chances created), yet they conceded first, and the score remained level until the 70th minute. A team of Gibraltar's caliber should have been dispatched more convincingly, especially on home soil. Ahead of Tuesday's match, there are no significant absences in the squad.

Faroe Islands Team Overview
In their last seven matches, the Islanders have secured 1 win, 3 draws, and 3 losses, all by a narrow margin. The team put up a commendable fight against the Czech Republic, defying pre-match odds (with a Faroe Islands victory valued at 21). The Scandinavians held strong defensively and managed to equalize in the 83rd minute, but ultimately couldn't hold onto the draw, ending 1-2. In the upcoming match, Jann Benjaminsen will be unavailable after being subbed off late in the first half due to injury.

β½ Goal Prediction
It's possible that the upcoming match won't feature a high goal tally. The Faroe Islands have long shed the label of a pushover team. Under the leadership of head coach EyΓ°un Klakstein, the national team has become even more defensively solid. In their last 8 matches, the islanders have conceded more than one goal only twice. However, their defensive style means they rarely score themselves. Given Montenegro's own lack of attacking prowess, a bet on total goals under 2.5 could be considered. This wager has been successful in 6 of the last 8 matches involving the Faroese team.
π© Corner Prediction
Although Montenegro have struggled in most of their recent games, they've been prolific in winning corners, averaging 5.6 per match. Against Gibraltar, Robert ProsineΔki's side earned 7 corners. As the hosts, they are considered favorites and will likely play from a position of strength on home turf. Therefore, it's worth considering a bet on Montenegro total corners over 4.5.
Editor's Prediction
Bookmakers have Montenegro as the clear favorites, but we're taking a gamble with this option: Faroe Islands to win with a +1.5 handicap. Recently, the Scandinavians have been putting up a fight against all their opponents. Even North Macedonia, riding a six-game winning streak, and the Czech Republic, who played at Euro 2024, faced significant challenges in their home games against the Faroese (1-0 and 2-1 respectively). Montenegro are struggling to create scoring opportunities and have lost seven of their last nine matches. While the hosts might still claim victory, the Faroe Islands are certainly capable of maintaining the handicap.
