Serbia U21 vs England U21 Betting Tips: England to Win

In their first encounter in mid-October, these national teams clashed, and the Yong Lions literally devoured the Young Eagles on their own turf, inflicting an unprecedented and biggest loss in history.

Even though the Serbian national team took an early lead with Vladimir Lucic, it turned out to be a misleading portrayal of the game's reality, as the English side swiftly turned the tables, leading 3-1 by halftime and later inflicting a crushing scoreline disaster of 9-1.

While it's nearly impossible for England's young talents to replicate the success from Nottingham, there's no doubt they will once again showcase their full potential and add another three points to their locker against Serbia, a regular 'customer,' having outplayed them in all four previous encounters.

Despite delivering a spectacle against the Young Eagles, England's young footballers failed to maintain that level in their second October test. Their struggle to nullify Ukraine's double lead during the first half culminated in a late, dramatic 2-3 defeat, marking their first setback in competitive matches in 17 months.

Furious and frustrated after that defeat, the reigning champions of EURO are determined to prevent another misstep, leaving Serbia with very slim chances, even with the home advantage, to achieve a positive outcome this weekend.

Admittedly, the Young Eagles, led by the new head coach Ljubinko Drulovic, seemingly quickly brushed off the damage of conceding nine goals against England, bouncing back with a late 2-1 triumph in the away match against Northern Ireland U21.

In spite of this, analyzing the broader scenario reveals that Serbia has only tasted victory twice in their last 10 matches, highlighting their current limitations in going toe-to-toe with the robust English side. Thus, we expect Lee Carsley's outfit to make the necessary moves to secure a valuable three points in this away match.
