Montenegro has never participated in a major tournament, and this will continue to be the case in 2024 as they failed to qualify for the EURO. Despite gathering 11 points from eight qualification matches, they lagged seven points behind Hungary and three points behind Serbia. Both of these teams secured their place in the European championship. Montenegro is now focusing on training for the Nations League and the next World Cup qualifications. They recently defeated Belarus 2-0 in a friendly match in Antalya on Thursday. Their superior ability to convert goal-scoring opportunities played a significant role in their victory, which is expected to boost their confidence significantly.
In 2021, North Macedonia participated in the EURO, but they were unable to replicate their previous success. They were part of a challenging group that included England, Italy, and Ukraine, making it unlikely for the Balkan nation to rank among the top two teams. On a Friday afternoon, North Macedonia had an excellent chance to elevate their spirits with a match against the less formidable Moldova. However, the game ended in a 1-1 draw.
Montenegro vs North Macedonia pick: Both teams to score &— yes
While far from being among Europe’s top teams, Montenegro and North Macedonia have been consistently putting scores on the board. Montenegro has scored a minimum of one goal in their last eight matches, and North Macedonia has managed at least one goal in six of their past seven games. In this match-up, betting on both teams to score &— yes, would be the most promising wager.

North Macedonia team news
North Macedonia didn’t secure a victory in a friendly match against Moldova. Following the game, the head coach Blagoja Milevski stated that Moldova drew with a single shot on goal.
He expressed, “My only choice is to commend the footballers for their passion and the opportunities they fashioned. Regrettably, they failed to capitalize on five or six prime opportunities they had. The rival team was able to equalize with their initial shot on goal. Prior to the game, I announced my plan to give some players a chance to experience different positions than their usual ones, and I can state that I am somewhat content, but there’s considerable scope to rectify a few aspects. I’m keen on finding a solution for some positions that are currently causing us problems.”
