Serbia vs Portugal Match Preview

This will be Portugal’s first competitive match since lifting the inaugural Nations League trophy. They defeated Switzerland thanks to a Ronaldo hat-trick in the semi finals before beating the Netherlands 1-0 in the final. Portugal’s qualification hasn’t got off to the best start with home draws against Ukraine and Serbia so far. Ukraine sit atop of group B, eight points ahead, having played two games more.

Serbia’s qualification campaign has gotten off to a mixed start. A 1-1 draw against Portugal in Lisbon was a solid point for the Orlovi. Serbia followed this up with an embarrassing 5-0 defeat at the hands of Ukraine. In their last match, Serbia put four past Lithuania in an empty stadium after their UEFA sanction.

 

Serbia vs Portugal Betting Tips

Portugal have faltered in qualifying campaigns in recent years, needing to progress through play-off matches on more than one occasion. Serbia’s national team is filled with high profile names playing Europe’s top five leagues. This won’t be easy for the reigning European Champions, but they should find a way past the Serbs.

Portugal don’t often score in bucket loads particularly against a side as good as Serbia. Just five goals in their last four competitive matches shows that Portugal often win by narrow margins. We’re backing a 1-0 victory in Belgrade at 5/1.

We predict a tight game with few chances as Serbia look to restrict Portugal. The Portuguese defence make a habit of giving up easy chances on occasion but have performed well in recent games, only conceding twice in the last four, both of which were penalties. Portugal to win to nil is 12/5.
