Slovenia vs Serbia Prediction & Picks - Euro
by Edgar Jibran | in Euro Picks
The first match of the EURO schedule for next Thursday, June 20th corresponds to a very tough match between Slovenia and Serbia for the Group C, and even when both teams had different outcomes during their opening matches, the bookmakers’ odds are taking Serbia as the favorite to win this match, but that shouldn’t be the main criteria to analyze such an even match.
Therefore, it must be noted that both teams weren’t consider as big contenders to get into the next round occupying the second spot of their Group, but Slovenia made a great statement during their opening match against Denmark after ensuring a 1-1 tie in a match where the offensive line was completely focused during the second half.

Slovenia - Serbia: Form Analysis
With that in mind, it must be noted that Slovenia had a huge duality during their first match of this tournament against the Danish squad, because even when they deserved to receive more than 1 goal during the first half, the Slovenians reacted on time and neutralized Denmark to finally create some goal chances during the second half, so the expectation for them would be trying to be more offensive since early instances.
On Serbia’s case, they looked completely inoperant during their opening match against England, and even when they weren’t dominated at all, they again showed to have one of the most disappointing offensives in Europe, trend that will be very hard to overcome in the short-term as they don’t have a world class offensive line.

Slovenia & Serbia Squad Analysis
In addition, it must be noted that Slovenia isn’t frequently qualifying to international tournaments, and even when they don’t have many players on competitive leagues, the presence of Jan Oblak and Benjamin Sesko is enough to motivate the rest of the squad to look forward to having their best possible performance on each match, just like it happened during the second half of their match against Denmark.
Meanwhile, Serbia is one of the most inconsistent national teams in Europe, and even when they’re now constantly qualifying to international tournaments having very solid presentations during the qualifying rounds, once they reach main-draw of the tournaments they’re almost always disappointing their fans, being important to remark that Tadic and Mitrovic are very far from their best performances, so the rest of the players look completely lost to Dragan Stojkovic level.
Slovenia - Serbia Key Points
- Slovenia needs only one victory on this match to practically ensure their qualification to the next round, so it’s expected to have an early offensive tactic from them.
- This will be a must-win match for Serbia, however they haven’t been competitive enough against national teams qualified to the EURO such as England, Austria, Belgium or Hungary.
- Slovenia has only lost 1 of its 4 confrontations against Serbia, match that took place in June 2022 for the UEFA Nations League (4-1).
- Serbia has scored at least 1 goal in 3 out of their 4 face-to-face matches, but they’ve received goals from Slovenia on all their confrontations.

Our Slovenia vs Serbia Prediction
To conclude, this second game for Slovenia and Serbia in the EURO 2024 will be one of the most even matches of the group stages, where the most inconvenient result for them is a draw, so both teams should try to perform at their best possible level, being important to remember that the last time Serbia affronted such a relevant match like this one, was during the 2022 World Cup, when they got eliminated after losing 2-3 against Switzerland, so the pick for Slovenia – Serbia is: Over 2.5 Goals!
