The Russian national team continues to play a series of friendly matches, with no admission to international tournaments. However, the status of opponents has begun to increase, and on 21 March, they will face Serbia, a participant in Euro 2024. The Russians are approaching this battle in pretty good shape. After their suspension from official games, they have already played nine friendlies, in which they have not suffered a single defeat so far: four times, there were victories, and five times, there were draws. Last autumn, they drew with Qatar and Kenya 1:1 and 2:2, respectively, while they beat Cameroon 1:0 and Cuba 8:0.
Serbia
The Serbian national team is a very strong European national team, which, by the level of the squad, should solve big problems, but every time, the White Eagles are prevented from achieving a good result. Interestingly, they have qualified for three of the last four World Cups, but they have never participated in the continental championships before. They achieved historic success in the qualifying tournament for Euro 2024, getting a ticket to the final part of the competition. The Serbs started their preparations for the European Championship with friendlies against Russia and Cyprus, where all the strongest players were invited, including Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Dusan Tadic, Dusan Vlahovic, and other star players.
Expert Betting Tips
For the Russian national team, the control game against Serbia was a big event because they had not faced opponents of such a high level for a long time. However, the White Eagles are unlikely to be determined to support the celebration of Russian football, as they are about to play at Euro 2024, so they need to solve their problems. Dragan Stojkovic has called up almost all of the strongest players for the national team, so even in a test game at the VTB Arena, they will be full of motivation to convince their coach of their need for the European Championship.
We have the right to expect a high level of goal-scoring activity from the upcoming clash. Valeri Karpin always strives to play attacking football, and therefore, his charges create a lot of dangerous chances, even if it all leads to mistakes and counterattacks on their own goal. The Serbian national team also enjoys playing open and entertaining, which is confirmed by the statistics: in the last six matches with the White Eagles, there were 19 shots on goal (3.17 per game on average), and in five cases, there was an exchange of goals.
