The Serbia national football team will be looking to gear up for their second group stage contest of the UEFA Nations League 2026-27 edition. They are going to take on the Netherlands national football team at the Rajko Mitić Stadium.
The Eagles are coming after their 1-2 defeat to Greece in their previous matchup. They took an early lead but failed to capitalise and conceded two goals in the second half. Serbia need a strong defensive performance, or silly mistakes like these will cost them more games.
Even though Veljko Paunović’s men will be at home for their upcoming fixture, they are going to be under pressure. Their second group stage game is against a tough team.
The Netherlands national football team are coming after they barely managed to secure a 1-1 draw against Germany. They scored a goal in the final minute of the game to bag a point. The Oranje will be looking to once again establish control from the start.
Led by Xavi, the Netherlands will be away from home for their next UEFA Nations League encounter. Due to better squad quality, they should not be under much pressure.
Players to watch
Andrija Živković (Serbia)
Andrija Živković was the sole goal scorer for the Serbia national football team in their previous outing. He helped his side with a one-goal lead in just under five minutes. But his goal was not enough to get them a win.
The 30-year-old can control the midfield. He is also capable of helping his side in the final third.
Cody Gakpo (Netherlands)
Cody Gakpo scored the crucial equaliser against Germany. This helped the Netherlands national football team secure a draw. He will once again be deployed on the left flank and is going to be a constant threat to the opponent’s defence.
The Liverpool star will be looking to help his side in the attacking front.
