Cyprus vs Montenegro: team news and expert analysis
Cyprus began the campaign with a defeat to their current opponents. They then managed only a draw in Latvia. But in October, playing at home, they won both matches and kept their hopes of promotion alive.
Montenegro were relegated from League B after the previous Nations League campaign. But they made it clear at the start of this autumn that they want to return. They won all three matches in the first round, but then failed to score against Armenia, settling for a goalless draw.
Last time out, the islanders played in Armenia and managed only a 1-1 draw. They will now finish second whatever the result. The Balkan side hosted bottom-placed Latvia and claimed a decisive 2-1 victory, putting themselves out of reach of their pursuers.
