Slovakia vs Montenegro: Team News and Expert Analysis
Slovakia played at Euro 2024 and reached the playoffs. However, they failed to qualify for the World Cup—after beating Germany in their group opener, they eventually lost out on first place to the Germans and then suffered a 3-4 defeat to Kosovo in the first playoff match in March. Because of this, their match against Romania was purely a friendly. Against Malta, Slovakia narrowly avoided embarrassment, snatching a 2-1 victory with a stoppage-time goal.
Montenegro picked up six of their nine qualifying points against Gibraltar and finished second-to-last in their group. They started 2026 with a friendly win over Andorra but then lost 2-3 at home to Slovenia. However, they managed to beat Bulgaria in this training camp thanks to a single goal in the second half.
Calzona’s men average 1.3 goals per match but concede slightly more at 1.4. Savic and company have a similar attacking output (1.3 goals scored per game) but struggle defensively, conceding 2.0 goals per match.
