After eight qualifying matches, the Serbs finished in third place. Only four of the eight pairings were won. On the other hand, these four successes face two draws and two defeats. After all, 14 points were enough for third place in qualification group B. The gap to the second place in the table from Portugal was three points. On the other hand, the leader from Ukraine lacked six counters. The offensive scored 17 goals in the group phase and the defence was conceded as many goals.
The third place in the semi-finals brought Norway as an opponent. An anything but easy task as it should turn out. From the beginning, however, the Serbs were unimpressed by the Scandinavians and sought the way forward. True to the motto „Attack is the best defense.“ The first good opportunities didn’t take long. However, since they remained unused in the first round, a goalless draw went into the half-time break. Even after the change of sides there was a lot of tension in the match. But there were no gates for the time being. The encounter took off towards the end with the right drive. After 82 minutes Milinkovic-Savic scored the leading goal of the guests. The home team now went on a total offensive and were compensated by Normann only six minutes later. Only the extension brought the decision. Once again, Milinkovic-Savic was on hand and provided the decisive 2-1 and thus the entry into the final. He scored a full eight times as part of the qualification.
In the Nations League, Serbia recently struggled and scored a 0-1 bankruptcy against Hungary and with Turkey the points were shared after a 2-2.

Just like Serbia, Scotland finished in third place at the end of the group stage of the EM qualification. With a record of five victories and five defeats, 15 points were scored. The gap to the second place in the table from Russia amounted to a total of nine counters. The second place in the league, and thus the direct qualification for the final round of the European Championships, was never really up for debate. The Belgian leader had twice as many points in his account as Scotland. The offensive looks at 16 goals scored and the defense has 19 goals conceded on the other side.
The semi-finals brought Israel with them as their opponent. This match was on a manageable level. Both teams met on an equal footing and struggled to score direct goals. The Scots, for their part, had not fired a single shot at the opponent’s goal throughout the match. Although there were 17 attempts at goal, none could be brought directly to the opponent’s box. On the other hand, the Israelis should only take one shot directly at the Scottish caste. Consequently, the regular playing time ended with a goalless draw. Since the extra time didn’t bring any hits either, both teams had to shoot penalties. There Scotland showed ice cold and prevailed in the end with 5:3. All five elves were transformed.
In the Nations League, too, the Bravehearts have recently made a strong impression and won a narrow 1-0 victory against the Czechs and Slovakia. Cross-competitive, the Scots have been unbeaten for eight matches.

A glance at the form curve of both teams reveals that Scotland is currently regarded as much stronger. None of the last eight competitive games were lost (7 wins, one draw). The Serbs, on the other hand, won only three of the last eight competitive games ( 3 draws, 2 defeats). The Scots will want to expand their four-victory series against Serbia. However, this endeavour is unlikely to be straightforward, as the Serbs act against a local backdrop. As part of our betting tip forecast, we assume an open game with goals on both sides. The quota is very tempting and measures a whopping 2.25.
