Ireland v Latvia, Wednesday 7:45pm
TV: RTE Two, Premier Sports 1

This would seem like it’s going to be a nice confidence-booster for Ireland. I think they’re going to win this comfortably.

When you think that these teams haven’t played since November and Ireland’s last results were a win away to Malta and a home defeat to Norway who, of course aren’t a bad team, even though they were without the services of a certain Erling Haaland in Dublin, and it was only a 1-2 defeat.

Latvia played in the Baltic Cup in November and have had three 1-1 draws on the trot over their last three fixtures, playing against Iceland, Estonia and Andorra.

You’d have to expect Ireland would win this one fairly easily and come out on top without too much trouble. 

Brighton’s Evan Ferguson has had such a fantastic season and I fancy him to do well against the Latvians here.

I think we’re looking at a 3-0 scoreline to the hosts and Ferguson to Score Anytime.
