Serbia and Denmark will meet in a crucial UEFA Nations League encounter on Monday, with both teams vying for a place in the competition’s quarter-finals. Serbia, having just secured a dramatic draw against Switzerland, still have their fate in their own hands. A win in this match would see them leapfrog Denmark and secure second place in Group 4, keeping their hopes of advancing alive. However, with only three goals scored in their previous five matches, they will need to improve their attacking efficiency, with key players like Aleksandar Mitrovic and Dusan Vlahovic under pressure to deliver.
Denmark, meanwhile, enter this match with a slight advantage. Though they suffered a narrow 2-1 loss to Spain, they remain in second place and can guarantee qualification with a draw. Their recent history against Serbia has been strong, with Denmark winning three of the last four encounters, including a convincing 2-0 victory in Copenhagen. New head coach Brian Riemer will be hoping to maintain that momentum, with a solid defensive setup led by goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and a midfield featuring the likes of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Morten Hjulmand.
Both teams will be aware of the stakes, with Serbia needing a win to avoid a potential relegation playoff. The match will be a tense affair, with Denmark aiming to hold firm and secure their spot in the Nations League’s next stage.
