Which streak will end in the top match in Group K?
Two undefeated teams, neither of which has conceded a goal, face each other in Serbia vs. England, and Wettbasis has a tip for you! The home team may be the underdogs in this match, but we expect them to give the Three Lions a run for their money as the strongest opponent in Group K.
Since suffering a defeat against reigning European champions Spain in the Nations League just under a year ago, the Serbian national team has not lost and has had a largely successful start to World Cup qualifying. This is reflected in their performance at the weekend in the match against Latvia, which ended in a 1-0 away win.
For the clash between the two defensively strong teams from Serbia and England, the prediction is for less than 2.5 goals. Nevertheless, we see value in the odds on a goal by Dušan Vlahović for the home side.
The Juventus Turin striker is currently once again in fine form. Not only did he score the decisive goal in the recent victory in Latvia, but he also found the net in the first two league games of the new Serie A season.
Serbia – England Head-to-head record
The two nations last faced each other at last year’s European Championship, with England recording a narrow 1-0 victory in the group stage thanks to a goal from Jude Bellingham. Thanks to that win, the British have two victories in this fixture. For the next edition of Serbia vs. England, the odds are once again pointing towards the favored visitors.
Serbia – England Tip
England has been waiting for its next World Cup title since 1966, and perhaps it will finally happen exactly 60 years later with a triumph at the upcoming World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Qualification seems to be a mere formality so far.
Tuchel’s team has four wins after four group games. The defense in particular has not shown any weaknesses – the British have not conceded a single goal so far. Nevertheless, there is room for improvement in terms of performance: meager results such as 1-0 and 2-0 against football minnows Andorra and a defeat in a friendly against Senegal show that the English national team has room for improvement.
In addition, their upcoming opponent is simply a different caliber than their previous opponents in Group K. The hosts are also undefeated and have home advantage on their side in the infamous Rajko Mitić Stadium.
We therefore expect, as in last year’s European Championship match, a tough encounter in which few goals are likely to be scored due to the strength of both defenses. Against this backdrop, the Serbia vs. England betting odds of a maximum of two goals seem promising! Ultimately, however, we believe Vlahovic will score and the Serbs will spring a surprise!
