Serbia vs Scotland Soccer Betting Picks
Present at the last two Worlds in Brazil and Russia, Serbia, on the other hand, missed the last Euro and will try to correct this by qualifying for the next one which will take place in June. In its qualifying group B, this selection finished in 3rd place in its group behind Ukraine and Portugal but ahead of Luxembourg and Lithuania. However, the Eagles were able to qualify for the Euro play-offs thanks to their 1st place obtained in their League of Nations pros ahead of Romania, Montenegro and Lithuania. In the semifinals, they dominated Norway (1-2 AP) before losing in the Nations League a few days later against Hungary (1-2) and holding Turkey (2-2) in check in their last match.
For its part, Scotland has not participated in any international competition since the 1998 World Cup and is therefore counting on this meeting to finally regain the taste of the highest level. Engaged in group I qualifying for the Euro, the British finished in 3rd place in their group behind Belgium and Iceland but ahead of Cyprus, Kazakhstan and San Marino. Like Serbia, they were able to secure 1st place in their group in the League of Nations, at the same time ahead of Israel and Albania and were, therefore, able to play the semi-final. After ruling out Israel on penalties in the semi-finals, Andrew Robertson’s partners then confirmed against Slovakia (1-0) and the Czech Republic (1-0) in the Nations League.
