Serbia and Switzerland appear to be in a battle for Nations League survival in League A Group 4. But, which team could be the winning prediction on Saturday?
The hosts come into this round of matches in slightly better form after picking up one point from their opening two matches. Their draw was picked up on matchday one against the reigning EURO 2024 champions- Spain.
Switzerland currently sit in the unwanted fourth-place after losing their opening two matches this year. A win for the Swiss could see them rise to third in the standings this weekend.

Predrag Rajkovic (GK); Nikola Milenkovic, Strahinja Erakovic, Strahinja Pavlovic, Kosta Nedeljkovic, Sasa Lukic, Marko Grujic, Sasa Zdjelar, Veljko Birmancevic, Aleksandar Mitrovic, Luka Jovic
Switzerland Team News
Joel Monteiro has been named in the Switzerland squad for the first time. Filip Urginic made his international debut in the previous break, and the forward could be handed more minutes on Saturday.
However, the Swiss are without mainstays in the team this weekend, including Nico Alvedi, Fabian Schar, and Granit Xhaka.
Possible Lineup
Gregor Kobel (GK); Gregory Wuthrich, Manuel Akanji, Ricardo Rodriguez, Becir Omeragic, Denis Zakaria, Remo Freuler, Michel Aebischer, Breel Embolo, Kwadwo Duah, Ruben Vargas
Serbia vs. Switzerland Prediction
The absence of Xhaka and Schar were felt by the Swiss in the last international break after suffering a heavy home defeat against Spain.
Playing without some of their key players once again this weekend is a huge concern for Switzerland. Therefore, it is hard to overlook the prospect of a home win for Serbia.
