The success of the Russians in the last year of the Nations League was limited. In Division B Group 2, the competition with Sweden and Turkey was by no means overwhelming. In the end, however, it was only enough for second place. Turkey was a solvable task. Both encounters against the crescent stars could be won with 2:1 and 2:0 respectively. Only the Swedes were the problem. The first leg ended with a goalless draw in front of the home scene and the second leg was lost 0-2 on the last match day in Sweden.
A record of two victories, a draw and a defeat resulted in seven points. However, due to the worse direct comparison with Sweden, only the second place in the table stood out in the end. The lead over Turkey’s last place in the table was a proud four.
Immediately after the Nations League, EM qualification was on the agenda. There the Sbornaja went on to Belgium with a record of eight victories and two bankruptcies. Thus, the ticket for the final round of the European Championships could be solved. Finland, Denmark and, above all, Belgium are no easy tasks in this area.

The Serbs started the last Nations League season in Division C Group 4. The team thus played one division lower. It was there that the competition for Romania, Montenegro and Lithuania had to endure. The complete six group games should be managed without defeat. This revealed a record of four victories and two draws. The only two draws were contested against the second place in the table from Romania (2:2, 0:0). All other duels with Montenegro and Lithuania could be won. The gap to the second place in the table from Romania was two counters at the end. The group victory involved promotion to Division B. There, however, it is then necessary to stand up to tougher opponents.
The Euro 2021 will have to take place without Serbia. The eleven failed to qualify for the final round. In Group B, it was only enough for the ungrateful third place in the table. Competition with Ukraine and Portugal was simply too strong. With a record of four wins, two draws and two defeats, 14 points were scored. The deficit to the second place in the table from Portugal was three points. The leader from Ukraine even lacked six counters.
The team of coach Tumbakovic will put its entire focus on the Nations League. Ultimately, these are also the only games on the program.

Serbia: 4 victories – 1 draw – 0 defeats
2 victories Russia – 2 draws – 0 victories Serbia
The odds for this power measurement do not indicate any real favourites. For this reason, a duel at eye level is to be expected. As part of our betting tip forecast, we see hosts from Russia a little stronger due to the home advantage. The direct comparison underpins this line of thought. After all, none of the last four duels with Russia were won by the Serbs (2 draws, 2 defeats). Finally, however, the points should be divided twice in a row. There are slight advantages to the Russians. In any case, it is advisable to secure the draw.
