Slovakia failed to qualify for the World Cup. In the qualifying group, the national team finished second, after Germany, and lost to Kosovo in the semifinal play-off match (3:4). After that setback, the Slovaks played two friendly matches, in which they were stronger than Romania (2:0) and Malta (2:1). With the Maltese, the winning goal was scored only in the 97th minute. It should be noted that the Slovak national team has suffered only one defeat against Kosovo in its previous ten matches.
Montenegro had a weak qualifying tournament for the World Cup. In their group, the national team lost not only to Croatia and the Czech Republic, but also finished in fourth place, passing ahead of the Faroe Islands. In eight matches, the Montenegrins scored only nine points, six of them against outright outsider Gibraltar. After qualifying, Montenegro played three friendly matches, in which they defeated Andorra (2:0) and Bulgaria (0:1), and also lost to Slovenia (2:3).
Slovakia had wrested victory from Malta with great difficulty the day before, only in added time. The Slovaks had a lot of experiments during this training camp, and we can't say that the national team is at its peak right now. The Montenegrins beat Bulgaria on a visit, and they are well motivated during this training camp. There is no noticeable difference in class between the rivals, taking into account the set coefficients, we recommend betting on the guests.
