Despite losing 1:0 to England in the first round of the Euro 2024, Serbia looked really well throughout the game. This explains why betting odds have moved in this team’s favor ahead of the Slovenia vs. Serbia game. When the betting markets opened, Serbia was a +100 favorite, but now, the Eagles’ odds are -120.
Before Betting on Slovenia vs. Serbia
Serbia looked good against the No. 1 favorite to win the 2024 Euro. But maybe it was because England wasn’t very good in that game. After getting an early lead, Gareth Southgate’s men let Serbia have the ball.
It was a fierce battle in the midfield, with only a couple of goal attempts. However, Serbia’s player did make a couple of very good chances, especially Juventus’s Dusan Vlahovic whose shot in the second half was saved by the England goalkeeper’s fingertips.
The Serbs played okay but did not win on Sunday. Earlier that day, another former Yugoslavian country got itself a point. Slovenia drew 1:1 with Denmark in the first round, mostly thanks to a fantastic defensive performance.
Their goalie Jan Oblak was brilliant as usual, and so were Slovenia’s defenders, especially Jaka Bijol and Erik Janza, who was the scorer of the equalizer. Slovenia’s objective for that game was to get a draw and they achieved it. It’s probably the same plan when it comes to the Serbia game. Will this plan come true as well?
Slovenia vs. Serbia Offshore Odds & Pick
Serbia’s strongest weapon is its offense, with players like Dusan Vlahovic, Aleksandar Mitrovic, and Luka Jovic. They didn’t do much against England, but we’re certain they’ll find the net against Slovenia, at least once. Given how well their midfield and defense played against England, we think Serbia should be able to keep a clean sheet against Slovenia.
Pick: Serbia
