Montenegro vs Serbia Predictions

Serbia's have high win rate in qualifying games since the arrival of Dragan Stojkovic as the new coach. It’s been almost eight years since Montenegro won a home match in the Euro qualifiers.

Montenegro are winless in 8 of their last 10 home matches
Serbia have won 8 of their last 11 away matches
Serbia’s Aleksandar Mitrovic has scored 3 goals in 2 matches versus Montenegro

Head to Head

These two teams have locked horns twice so far. Both matches were part of the UEFA Nations League in 2018. Serbia earned two victories, 2-1 and 2-0.

Montenegro Form

Euro 2024 qualifiers are probably the best chance for Montenegro to make an appearance in a big competition so far.

They opened this campaign with a narrow 1-0 victory against Bulgaria on Friday. The only goal in the match was scored by Nikola Krstović in the second half.

Montenegro won just one of their last eight home matches in Euro qualifiers while losing four.

The most recent home match in UEFA Nations League was a 0-2 loss to Finland.

Montenegro Squad & Team News

Goalkeepers: Milan Mijatović, Miloš Dragojević, Lazar Carević

Defenders: Stefan Savić, Žarko Tomašević, Adam Marušić, Marko Vešović, Risto Radunović, Igor Vujačić, Nikola Šipčić, Andrija Vukčević

Midfielders: Vladimir Jovović, Aleksandar Šćekić, Sead Hakšabanović, Aleksandar Boljević, Marko Bakić, Milutin Osmajić, Miloš Raičković, Vukan Savićević, Stefan Lončar, Driton Camaj, Novica Eraković, Vladan Bubanja

Forwards: Stevan Jovetić, Stefan Mugoša, Nikola Krstović

Stevan Jovetić is the all-time best scorer for Montenegro, bagging 31 goals in 66 appearances.

Serbia Form

Serbia had zero troubles on Friday against Lithuania in Belgrade, winning the match 2-0 and missing a couple of colossal chances to make that score even more convincing.

The captain Dušan Tadić and Dušan Vlahovic appeared on the score sheet.

That was the first clean sheet for the Eagles after six straight matches. They had awful defensive numbers in the World Cup, conceding eight goals in three group games.

Serbia won their last three Euro qualifier games on the road against Luxembourg (3-1), Lithuania (2-1), and Norway (2-1). Aleksandar Mitrovic scored four goals total in those duels.

Forwards: Aleksandar Mitrović, Dušan Vlahović, Dejan Joveljić, Luka Jović

Defender Miloš Veljković and midfielder Nemanja Maksimović were not called up.

Aleksandar Mitrović is all-time top scorer for Serbia with 52 goals in 80 appearances.

Verdict

Montenegro v Serbia

I expect Serbia to have possession in Podgorica and control the match. They won both duels against Montenegro so far and looked sharp a couple of days ago against Lithuania. I will also back Mitrovic to score.

Serbia Win
