Luxembourg vs Serbia

Stade de Luxembourg is the venue as Luxembourg meet Serbia in a must-win World Cup qualification Group A encounter.

Luxembourg have alternated between a victory (2) and a defeat (2) across their opening four World Cup qualification Group A matches, as they take the field trailing second-placed Serbia by five points. Though a potential victory here would help them bridge the gap on their visitors with a game in hand, it will be an uphill task for Luxembourg to prevail in this fixture. ‘Les Lions Rouges’ have lost all three World Cup/Euro qualifying H2Hs, conceding 3+ goals on each occasion. Having won just one of their last six home outings (D2, L3), Luxembourg’s hopes of making history look rather slim. That said, the hosts have lost just one of their previous four World Cup qualifying matches on home soil (W2, D1), which could inject much-needed courage into Luc Holtz’s side.

Meanwhile, Serbia squandered a 1-0 half-time lead at Ireland last time out, conceding an epic 87th-minute own goal to draw 1-1. However, the visitors remain unbeaten in the ongoing World Cup qualifying campaign (W3, D2) and are looking to reduce a two-point deficit on section-toppers Portugal. The Serbs tend to put their scoring prowess on full display when winning, with each of their three Group A victories seeing them net 2+ goals, including a 4-1 H2H triumph in the reverse fixture last month. Seeking a precious three points here, the ‘Eagles’ can draw confidence from going unbeaten in all but one of their six away internationals this calendar year (W2, D3). Defensively robust, they’ve kept three clean sheets across those six matches, conceding precisely once in two of the other three.
