Match Preview
Kazakhstan is dead last in Group E with only two points and with the competitiveness of the Group, a chance at qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup seems virtually impossible.
The entire squad for Kazakhstan plays domestically with a few players from the top team in the country, Astana. The Hawks are yet to win a game in these qualifiers and are unlikely to get that elusive first win in this game coming up against a much stronger side.
Montenegro has done well in these qualifiers currently second in Group E with three wins, a draw and two losses. The Brave Falcons have 10 points but are just slightly ahead of Denmark on goal differential and need to keep on getting points from these games.
Stevan Jovetic is the best player on Montenegro as the AS Monaco striker has scored six goals in these qualifiers and should add to that tally after this game. The match should be interesting but Montenegro defeated Kazakhstan 5-0 the last time the two teams played each other and should have another comfortable win in this game.
