Montenegro vs Serbia Prediction and Betting Tips
Montenegro and Serbia square off at the Podgorica City Stadium in Group G of the 2024 European Championship qualifiers on Monday (March 27). Having picked up wins in their respective opener, both sides will look to maintain their impressive start to the campaign.
Montenegro kicked off their quest for a place in Germany on a high with a hard-earned 1-0 win over Hungary on Friday (March 24). Before that, the Brave Falcons were on a four-game winless run across competitions, losing three, including successive losses against Bosnia & Herzegovina and Finland in their final two outings of last year's UEFA Nations League.
Montenegro will now set out to secure two back-to-back competitive wins for the first time since seeing off Latvia and Gibraltar back in March 2021.
Meanwhile, Dusan Tadic and his namesake Vlahovic scored as Serbia picked up a comfortable 2-0 win over Lithuania in their Group G opener on Friday. Before that, Dragan Stojkovic's side endured a poor showing at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they crashed out in the group stage, before a 2-1 friendly win over USA on January 26.
Serbia will back themselves to pick up where they dropped off against a Montenegro side who have lost their last two games.
