Welcome to our Latvia vs Serbia prediction, where we break down everything you need to know ahead of this World Cup Qualification Europe league match. On September 6, 2025, at 16:00 local time, Riga’s BTA Daugava Stadium will host a contest that, on paper, looks like a classic David vs Goliath. But as recent results have shown, football loves a surprise.
Latvia, with a squad value of just €9.68m, are no strangers to being the underdog. Their recent 1:1 draw against Albania—despite sky-high odds of 5.0 for a home win—reminded everyone that the Latvians can frustrate bigger teams, especially on home soil. Their approach is typically pragmatic: expect a compact defensive block, quick counters, and a willingness to soak up pressure.
Serbia, on the other hand, arrive with a squad valued at a whopping €245.90m, brimming with technical talent and physical presence. Their goalless draw against Spain last autumn, when few gave them a chance, showed they can hold their own against Europe’s elite. Serbia’s tactical setup is usually proactive, with a focus on dominating possession and creating chances through midfield control and overlapping full-backs.
With these numbers, it’s clear which side is expected to dictate the tempo. Latvia will likely defend deep, hoping to snatch something on the break or from set-pieces, while Serbia will look to break them down with patience and quality.
Now, let’s get to the numbers that matter for punters and prediction fans. According to NerdyTips, the best betting tip for this match is a Serbia win (2), with a trust level of 10.0/10 and odds of 1.33.

If you’re hunting for value, under 3.5 goals is a smart play, given Latvia’s tendency to keep things tight and Serbia’s methodical approach.
