Montenegro and Czech Republic go head to head in a friendly at the Podgorica City Stadium on Tuesday (June 20).
Miodrag Radulovic’s men head into the game looking to get over the Locomotive, having lost the last four meetings between the sides. Montenegro failed to get their quest for a place in Germany back on track, as they were held to a goalless draw by Hungary on Saturday.
Before that, the Brave Falcons kicked off their qualifying campaign with a 1-0 win over Bulgaria on March 24, three days before suffering a 2-0 loss to Serbia. Montenegro are third in Group G, level on four points with second-placed Hungary, who have a game in hand.
Trending
Meanwhile, Czech Republic maintained their unbeaten run in the qualifiers with a 3-0 win over Faroe Islands on Saturday. Jaroslav Silhavy’s men have picked up two wins and a draw from three games to sit atop Group E and have a four-point lead over second-placed Albania.
However, Czech Republic head into the game with just one win in eight away games across competitions since the start of 2022.
