Serbia
With only two matches remaining in the UEFA Nations League, both teams are in need of a victory here.
Switzerland will be looking to improve upon their last performance in Serbia, where they were thoroughly outplayed in a 2-0 defeat. They approached that match with a more defensive strategy, which didn’t yield the desired results. Currently sitting at the bottom of the group, Switzerland is expected to take a more aggressive approach this time around.
Serbia, meanwhile, has shown they can hold their own against quality opponents, with a recent 0-0 draw against Spain and a solid 2-0 home win against Switzerland. This time, Serbia's attack will be bolstered by the inclusion of Dusan Vlahovic in the squad for the away fixture.
Historically, both teams have found the net in two of their last three encounters, suggesting an open and competitive match.
What we say
Both Teams to Score
Given the head-to-head history and both teams’ strong motivation to win, we anticipate an open match with goals from both sides.
Serbia, strengthened by the addition of Vlahovic and the leadership of their captain Mitrovic, is well-positioned to test Switzerland’s defense which has already conceded 10 goals in just four matches.
Additionally, Switzerland will be without their two main defenders, Nico Elvedi and Akanji, who are sidelined with injuries.
