Brennan Johnson does brilliantly to go beyond two Latvia defenders, but his shot is wayward and sails wide.

Wales have looked bright in these early stages but it remains goalless so far.

Another really good chance for Wales as Ben Davies is left unmarked in the box from Harry Wilson's corner, but his header is tipped over by goalkeeper Roberts Ozols.

I love these little stadiums with the fans right on top of you, all clapping and singing in unison.

I can hear the Wales fans to my left, it's a really good atmosphere.

Wales look to retain possession after that lively start.

All members of the backline get some touches on the ball as Robert Page's side stay patient following those two early opportunities to score.

There is a sprinkling of the Wales bucket hats.

It is quite an atmosphere in this Skonto Stadium.

Harry Wilson whips in a corner, but Ethan Ampadu heads over from the edge of the Latvia six-yard box.

Two early chances for Wales.

Ethan Ampadu bursts upfield and threads a fine pass through for Brennan Johnson to chase.

The Tottenham forward can't hit the target though. A bright start from Wales in Riga.

Can Wales get their qualifying campaign back on track with a win tonight?

We're about to find out.

Three points, it's as simple as that.

Can't afford to draw, can't afford to lose.

As has been mentioned once or twice, it is a big night for Wales and a big night for Robert Page.

Can the Wales boss turn his team's fortunes around?

Don't give Latvia an ounce of space or a chance.

This crowd is going to be 50-50 or even maybe 60-40 in Wales' favour - get them behind you and it will feel like a home game.

If they can do that in the first 20 minutes it will be a comfortable night for Wales.

It's been a glorious day in Riga, and Wales' fans have spent it basking in the Baltic sunshine.

Speaking to a few of them earlier, there was a general feeling of confidence about tonight's game but a strong sense among many that Robert Page should be dismissed soon.

The manager's future is an inescapable topic at the moment.

Wales boss Rob Page speaking to S4C: "We're not talking about that [pressure] in the changing room.

"We're just fully focused on the game. I'll take the criticism and I'll protect the players from it. We'll just focus on getting the points."

Connor Roberts wins his 50th cap for Wales tonight.

A fine achievement for the Burnley defender.

There seem to be more Welsh fans than Latvian fans right now.

Across from us there is a group of Welsh fans - there must be 40 or 50 of them already.

Over in the left-hand corner there is a massive group of them, down in front of me around the pitch there are loads of them, to my right I can see red shirts.

It's just like a home game.

Defenders Joe Rodon and Chris Mepham have told former captain Ashley Williams they are confident Wales can still qualify for Euro 2024.

It's cooling down now, it was warm this afternoon and it's been warm ever since we got here yesterday, but it's a fairly comfortable temperature.

It is a mighty challenge trying to fill the void left in the Wales team by Gareth Bale.

And it is another huge ask to attempt to fill the boots of Harry Kane at Tottenham Hotspur.

Yet that is the challenge facing 22-year-old Brennan Johnson, who leads the Wales line tonight.

BBC Sport Wales has charted the story of Tottenham's new £47.5m forward.

This is the second time Wales have faced Latvia in Riga, having won a friendly here 2-0 in 2004.

John Hartson and Craig Bellamy scored Wales’ goals on that occasion, while current boss Robert Page was in the starting line-up.

Latvia have lost all four of their qualifying fixtures so far, and their home record has been rather woeful in recent years.

Indeed, they have lost eight of their past nine home European Championship qualifying matches, winning the other 1-0 against Austria in November 2019.
