Serbia vs Ireland Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in World Cup Predictions
Serbia hosts Republic of Ireland in Group A of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers with the two nations hoping to take early advantage in a group that also has Portugal, Azerbaijan and Luxembourg. Going to this game, Serbia are unbeaten in their last five matches, but have just one win in the process. Their last 11 matches have produced just two wins but they will be looking to build on the three straight clean sheets they carry to this game. In their last competitive match, they thrashed Russia 5-0 but while they kept clean sheets in the last two matches, they failed also to score against Panama and Dominican Republic. In the last World Cup qualifiers, they met Ireland and collected four points from the two matches against them. By their superior ranking (30), Serbia will be regarded favorites over Ireland, and will be hoping to extend their good run in World Cup qualifiers, having lost just once in 13. Serbia are unbeaten in their last eight World Cup qualification matches at home, and have lost just once in the last 20, with 12 clean sheets in the process.
Ireland on the other hand, head to this game winless in their last nine matches. At rank 42, they will be hoping to beat a higher ranked side that has even had a better run recently. In the last four matches they’ve lost three and they’ve failed to score in the last seven matches. Republic of Ireland have just one win in the last 12 matches, and scored only three goals in the process, while keeping just four clean sheets. They go to this game on three straight away losses. In World Cup qualification matches, they have two wins, two losses in the last five, but then that was three years ago.

Our Serbia vs Ireland Prediction
Ireland are coming top this game on the back of a very poor run. On the other hand, Serbia are seeking to avenge the loss in the Euro 2020 playoff final against Scotland, the last time they play a UK side. Much of the pre-match stats favor Serbia, as Ireland have been in really bad shape. The visitors have never beaten Serbia in five meetings, and they head here having failed to score in seven straight games. Serbia are playing at home and are favorites; back them to win 1-0 as they are also not so good scorers.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
