Serbia have already kicked off their qualifying campaign with a commanding 4-0 victory over Andorra, putting them at the top of Group 8.

Netherlands Team Overview
The Netherlands are looking to make the most of their home advantage as they kick off their World Cup qualifying campaign. However, history is not on the hosts’ side when it comes to head-to-head clashes with Serbia. The Dutch have failed to win any of their last 12 meetings, suffering eight defeats in regular time and settling for a draw on two occasions. The most recent encounter between these sides came in October 2025, with the Netherlands falling 2-3. On a brighter note, the team have shown promising attacking form in recent friendlies, recording impressive wins over Germany by scores of 4-0 and 3-2.

⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
We suggest backing Serbia to win. The visitors have a clear edge in head-to-head encounters and already showcased their readiness in the opening match of the qualifiers. Serbia have claimed victory in 10 of their last 12 meetings with the Netherlands, including each of the past five clashes. On top of that, the Serbians put four unanswered goals past Andorra, while the hosts are yet to play their first official fixture of the current qualifying campaign. Given Serbia’s historical dominance and their strong start, we expect them to secure another win here.
