Craig Bellamy’s Wales side travel to Montenegro tonight for their second match in the Nations League, looking to grab a first win of the campaign after an encouraging draw against Turkey last week.

Wales drew 0-0 at home to Turkey, but were the better side throughout, and will travel to Montenegro knowing that they are the favourites.

Much of the build-up to the match has been dominated by the conditions of the pitch in the Podgorica, with Uefa deeming the turf unplayable and the match then being moved to Niksic.

But since last week’s result in Bellamy’s first match in charge, attention has suddenly turned to a more positive outlook on a side that struggled to a draw against Gibraltar as recently as June.

Tonight’s match will give Wales fans a better idea of whether Bellamy could be just what the team needs.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Prediction

After a positive start to Craig Bellamy’s tenure, Wales will be desperate to give the former captain a win that they will feel his start deserves. They should have enough quality throughout the squad to beat Montenegro. Montenegro 0-1 Wales.
