Latvia Seeking Second Win Of Tournament
Latvia enter this matchup on the back of their heaviest defeat of the tournament so far, which has left them 1-3.
The Latvians kicked off the campaign with a defeat, but they did put up a credible showing in a 4-2 loss to host nation Switzerland.
They did not have to wait long for their first win though, as they rebounded with a 2-0 victory over Germany, but to this date that remains their only victory of the tournament so far.
Latvia returned to losing was as they fell to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Austria.
That was followed by their most one-sided loss of the 2026 World Championship, as they were blown out 7-1 by Finland.
United States Have Split First Four Games
The United States go into this game looking to win back-to-back games for the first time in the 2026 World Championship.
The Americans entered the tournament as the defending champions, and the gold medal winners at the 2026 Winter Games, but with a weakened roster they have underwhelmed.
They opened the tournament with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of host nation Switzerland.
The United States rebounded with a 5-1 blowout of Great Britain, only to then suffer a 6-2 defeat when they faced Finland.
The Americans issued an immediate – albeit unconvincing – response, as they edged Germany last time out, 2-1.
Verdict
The United States have underwhelmed and Latvia just got smashed by Finland, so when it comes to the Line this is a tough one to call.
We are leaning towards the Latvians though – they have at least managed to cover the Line once in this tournament, and they did it against one of the stronger nations.
