Brazil vs. Serbia Prediction

• Where: Lusail Iconic Stadium, Lusail, Qatar
• When: Thursday, November 24, 10 pm local time

Brazil and Serbia highlight November 24th, and their game is the central event of the day. These two teams met four years ago in Russia, and the South American side had more success beating the Serbs. Things are a bit different now, with the Serbian side being much better, but still, Brazil is a massive favorite, not only to win this game but to take back home the title.

Brazil vs. Serbia Preview

Brazil

Selecao is the top favorite for the title, both according to fans, bookmakers, and pundits. Though, we’ve seen too many times throughout history that such teams fail to reach not only the silverware but often the tournament’s final games. Brazil was one of the favorites in Russia, yet they ended the adventure in the quarterfinals. 

This team plays well and has been without a defeat for the past 15 games, with the last failure coming in the Copa America finals the previous summer at home, once Argentina and Messi took the title in the middle of Rio de Janeiro.

Brazil triumphed in the last seven games, scoring at least four goals in five of those events, to teams like Chile, Paraguay, South Korea, or Tunisia. Now, you can figure out what their offensive potential is here. The team does look a bit imbalanced, with more sounding names in the attack, than in the back line, but when it comes to quality, that isn’t the case.

Serbia

For one moment, the Serbian fans were terrified by the prospect of losing their top two strikers, Aleksandar Mitrovic and Dusan Vlahovic, who were among the best goalscorers in Europe over the past 12 months. But both of them are fine, and they will play in Qatar. 

Serbia is a team that has a compact and very tough midfield led by Dusan Tadic and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, and overall this team has a huge talent in that area. They are solid with creativity and very flexible in terms of adapting to the rivals’ style of play. 

The Serbs haven’t lost in the past six games, in the meantime winning the top spot in the UEFA Nations League group ahead of Norway, Sweden, and Slovenia. In only one game during that period, we haven’t seen them score two or more goals.

Brazil vs. Serbia Head to Head

The Brazilians beat the Serbs 2-0 in the previous World Cup in the last game of their group stage. Throughout history, these two nations met several times, the most recent clash before the above-mentioned in 2014, when Brazil won in a friendly international, 1-0. 

Brazil vs. Serbia Prediction

Selecao is better than the Serbs, who have high quality but not enough to win. It wouldn’t surprise us to see that, but we simply don’t believe in that direction. Brazil is our pick and the ultimate recommendation. 

Our verdict: Brazil wins
