England will begin their Euro 2024 campaign against Serbia on Sunday at the Veltins-Arena. The Three Lions are the favorites to win Group C, which also features Slovenia and Denmark. Gareth Southgate knows that the fans and the media won't accept anything less than lifting the trophy in Germany. Some fans are already questioning his team selection after leaving out stars like Rashford, Henderson, and Grealish. The Serbians will definitely fancy their chances of being the underdogs in this matchup, leaving all the pressure on England to perform.

Serbia - England: Form Analysis
England are coming off a demoralizing 1-0 defeat against Iceland last week. This is their second defeat in the international friendlies after a similar score against Brazil in March. England won only one of their four friendly matches, the 3-0 win against Bosnia and Herzegovina. But despite these mixed results, their overall form of 5 draws, 3 draws, and 2 losses in the last 10 matches is above average. They have enough talent to win all their group matches and advance to the knockout stages of this tournament.
Like England, Serbia hasn't exactly set the world alight ahead of this matchup. They are 2-2 in their international friendlies, where they conceded 6 goals and scored 5. In the last 10 games, the Serbians have won only four times, allowing 15 goals in the process. Dragan Stojkovic's men cannot miss a chance to cross the ball to their tall forwards, who headed in 33% of their crosses during the qualifiers. This is the highest percentage of any team that booked a spot in Germany.

Serbia & England Squad Analysis
England has so much talent that Southgate can afford to leave out Rashford and Grealish. Their midfield trio of Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka, and Phil Foden is one of the best they have had in recent times. Bellingham is coming off a highly successful season in Real Madrid, where he won the Champions League. He can deliver some clutch goals and man-of-the-match performances. Declan Rice has also become droppable in midfield after a commanding display for Arsenal throughout the season. And yes, captain and record goal scorer Harry Kane is fit to play.
Serbia doesn't possess the star power that England does. However, they boast stability and spine at the back provided by two brothers – Vanja Milinkovic-Savic (goalkeeper) and Strahinja Pavlovic (defender). In midfield, their captain, Dusan Tadic, will be instrumental in pulling the strings and providing chances for Aleksandar Mitrovic to finish off. The Al-Hilal forward enjoyed an exceptional season, scoring 28 goals and assisting 5 for the Middle Eastern side. He also scored 5 and assisted 1 for the national team in five appearances.

Our Serbia vs England Prediction
England will score in this matchup, and we suspect there will be a couple of goals. They boast exceptional squad depth, with their strikers and midfielders capable of producing magical moments. However, patience is running thin back home, and it's high time England started delivering the goods in big stages. This pressure could ultimately favor the Serbians, who play very compact football. Our prediction for Serbia vs England:Over 2.5 goals.
