Match announcement
Serbia
Current form
The Serbian national team failed miserably at yet another major tournament this summer. With world-class stars in its ranks, Dragan Stojkovic's team first suffered a fiasco at the World Cup, then frankly failed in the group at the last Euro, finishing last with two points. However, the coach retained his position and under his leadership the Serbs will start in the League of Nations.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dusan Vlahovic, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Aleksandar Mitrovic will miss the match for various reasons.

Approximate composition : Petrovich - Pavlovich, Milenkovic, Erakovic - Nedeljkovic, Samaric, Ilic, Gruich - Zivkovic, S. Mitrovic - Ratkov.
Spain
Current form
The Spanish national team went to the European Championship in Germany as one of the main favorites of the tournament and fully justified it. Not without problems, but the Spaniards moved forward confidently enough in the tournament grid, knocking out Georgia, Germany and France in the playoffs, and then beating England 2:1 in the final. Under the leadership of Luis de la Fuente, the "Red Fury" showed high-quality mature football, despite the abundance of young players in the squad.

1.49Tip and bets
The Serbian national team will be missing many key players today, key in their positions, such losses will certainly not make the Serbs stronger. Spain has lost Alvaro Morata and Rodri for chants directed at Gibraltar, but the Spanish reserve is much better and wider, finding replacements for them for one match will not be a problem. Today, Spain is objectively stronger and can justify its status as favorite without any problems.
We think that the hosts have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) for Spain . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.85
Bet on total
The Spanish national team is the favorite and will certainly come for the victory - the Spanish attack is full of stars and Serbia's defense will clearly have plenty of problems. At the same time, the League of Nations, although official, is a tournament in which many coaches experiment, the coach of the "Red Fury" is quite inclined to experiment. Serbia is traditionally productive at home, the hosts are capable of responding with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 2.09
Bet on corners
Spain are the favourites and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the visitors should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on corners for Spain. This bet is offered for 1.69
