Slovakia head into the November international break aiming to get over the line and seal top spot in Group C3 of the UEFA Nations League to earn promotion to League B.

They have enjoyed a strong campaign thus far, extending an unbeaten streak to seven games since a loss in a World Cup Qualifying playoff, winning three of their first four group games and drawing the other.

That draw came in the reverse fixture against Friday's opponents, following 2-0 and 2-1 home wins over Moldova and Kazakhstan respectively, before they moved further clear in top spot with a 4-0 beating of Moldova in their last meeting in October with David Strelec, Tomas Suslov, David Hancko and Lukas Haraslin on the scoresheet.

That hot start leaves them on 10 points from four games, having scored nine goals and only conceded two in those, with a six-point lead over the visitors, meaning a single point would guarantee a first-placed finish and a place in League B in the next term.

Again able to call up a strong squad for the final two group games including Hancko, Susov, Strelec, Haraslin, Milan Skriniar, Ondrej Duda and Robert Bozenik, but with the notable absences of goalkeeper Martin Dubravka and Stanislav Lobotka, Slovakia will hope to make no mistake on Friday and get the job done in the penultimate round of games.

Their visitors, meanwhile, arrive with their own unbeaten record in tact, albeit needing two wins to catch their hosts while needing Slovakia to lose their final two games.

After managing a loss and a draw in the Baltic Cup in June, Faroe Islands begun the new Nations League campaign in group C3 and have drawn all four of their games thus far, firstly seeing meetings with Moldova and Kazakhstan end level at a goal apiece.

The Landslidid then hosted Slovakia and drew by the same scoreline thanks to Adrian Justinussen's leveller, before most recently visiting Kazakhstan in October and leading 2-0 through Peter Knudsen and Geza David Turi only to be held to a stalemate.

Having called up a similar squad to those first games, headlined by the likes of Andrias Edmundsson, Joannes Bjartalid, Geza David Turi and Knudsen, Faroe Islands must beat Slovakia to keep any hopes of earning automatic promotion in top spot, while also hoping to fend off third-placed Moldova, who only trail on goal difference, in the battle for second spot, Faroe Islands will go in search of a first win and Slovakia's first defeat of the group stage on Friday.

Whispers predicts: Slovakia 2-1 Faroe Islands

Although three of Faroe Islands' four Nations League games have seen two goals each, they have scored and conceded in all of those, while the hosts have netted nine goals in their four outings thus far. We fancy over 2.5 goals at 17/20 (1.85).

Slovakia do face a difficult test, highlighted in the reverse fixture being their only dropped points thus far, but we do fancy them to come out on top on home turf. They have enjoyed fast starts, scoring in each first half of their four games thus far and leading at the interval in three. We opt for Slovakia/Slovakia in the half time/ full time market at 20/21 (1.95).

While Slovakia have an abundance of attacking players who have benefitted from their improvement in the Nations League, we see full-back David Hancko as the most interesting proposition. The Atletico Madrid man has scored nine goals in 63 caps including two in his last three and four in his last 13 in a larger sample size. He has often enjoyed opportunities with the Sokolice dominating games and is priced at 11/2 (6.50) to score anytime.
