Wednesday’s friendly at Aviva Stadium pits together Republic of Ireland and Latvia, the two teams who meet for the first time since November 15, 2013.
Back then Ireland outplayed Latvia 3-0, and you should know that the Boys in Green are eyeing their sixth consecutive win over the former Soviet Republic.
Mikey Johnston has received his first call-up, while both Shane Duffy and Enda Stevens miss out with injuries. Norwich City duo Adam Idah – Andrew Omobamidele is back to the squad.
The Latvians, on the other hand, did well to win UEFA Nations League Group 1 (League D), but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Dublin.
Since Ireland do not suit Latvia, we are tempted to put our money on Stephen Kenny’s troops. In their last meeting in a competitive match, back in 1995, Ireland defeated Latvia 2-1.
This match will be played on 22/03/2023 at 20:45
