Montenegro's attacking consistency suggests a higher likelihood of goals, but Latvia's low scoring and defensive approach point towards a scenario where both teams may not score. This supports a cautious BTTS No and Under 3.5 Goals context, balancing Montenegro's goal threat with Latvia's limited offensive output.
