Switzerland

Murat Yakin's charges could be relegated to League B this round if they fail to win. After 4 matches, the Swiss only have one point, which they earned in the fourth round, drawing at home with the Danes (2:2). However, in the first three matches of the 2024/25 Nations League, Switzerland lost, each time by a margin of two or three goals. It should be noted that in Leagues A and B, only Israel has conceded more (13) than the Swiss (10).


Defender Nico Elvedi will miss the match due to suspension.


  • At least two goals have been scored in the last six matches of the national team in this tournament.
  • The number '2' was in the final score in 5 of the last 6 Swiss games in the Nations League.
  • The Swiss scored in 9 out of the last 10 home encounters in the Nations League.

Serbia

The Balkans have 4 points and occupy third place in the group. The team earned all points at their home stadium: a draw with Spain (0:0) and a victory over Switzerland (2:0). However, Serbia lost both away matches, both with a clean sheet: to the Danes (0:2) and the Spaniards (0:3). It should be noted that Dragan Stojkovic's men will retain a chance of advancing to the playoffs if they earn no fewer points than the Danes in the fifth round.


Defenders Strahinja Erakovic and Strahinja Pavlovic will not play due to suspension.


  • Serbia has not lost in 7 of the last 9 Nations League matches (5 wins and 2 draws).
  • At least one team did not score in the last five matches of the Balkans in this tournament.
  • Two or more goals were scored in 7 of the last 8 away games of the Serbs in the Nations League.

Switzerland vs Serbia Prediction

I am confident that the Swiss team is much stronger than the Serbs, despite Murat Yakin's charges failing in this Nations League. I believe that the hosts deserve to play in the elite of this tournament. It is worth noting that the Balkans would even be somewhat satisfied with a one-goal defeat, as then they would have an advantage in head-to-head meetings if both teams finish the group stage with equal points.


The hosts have good performance at home in the Nations League. In the last 10 home matches, the Swiss suffered only two defeats, both times to the Spaniards. Meanwhile, the Serbs have yet to earn points away in League A – two losses. And in League B, the Balkans did not win in 5 of the last 7 away games. Therefore, I believe that Murat Yakin's men will prevail in this game. However, it is unlikely they will manage to win with the necessary two-goal margin. My prediction is a “Victory for Switzerland”.

Switzerland — Serbia betting tips 15 Nov 2024

With two rounds remaining until the end of the Nations League group stage, Switzerland are on the brink of relegation to Division B. At home against Serbia, the team are likely to take risks: they need to score goals, which will open them up and give their opponents chances on the counter.

In September and October, Switzerland conceded a total of 10 goals across four matches—their defence, led by new first-choice goalkeeper Gregor Kobel, is still struggling to find cohesion. In each of their four Nations League fixtures, the Swiss have allowed at least two goals, and in Leskovac against Serbia (0:2), they registered 0.66 xGA with four shots on target. Murat Yakin is likely to stick with the 3-4-3 formation, but currently, there is a noticeable lack of experienced defenders in the squad.

Serbia are unlikely to secure the second playoff spot, but a draw against Switzerland would see them through to the playoffs. In their previous match against Spain (0:3), Dragan Stojković opted to field reserves, with only Aleksandar Mitrović and Strahinja Pavlović retaining their usual positions, leading to a questionable result. Playing away against the group's underdog, Serbia will find it advantageous to exploit counter-attacks.

Since June 2018, Switzerland have conceded at least one goal in all three meetings with Serbia. It appears the shaky Swiss defence will once again make mistakes, which Serbia will likely capitalise on.
