Ireland hosts Serbia in round 5 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Tuesday, September 7th at Aviva Stadium (Dublin)
I really liked the heroic game of Ireland on the pitch of Portugal on September 1. Ronaldo will remember Gavin Bazunu for a long time. The 19-year-old goalkeeper, who plays for Portsmouth in League 1, saved the penalty after a shot from the multiple winner of the Golden Ball. Moreover, Egan opened the scoring at the end of the first half. But Ireland didn’t manage to defend a draw: Ronaldo scored a double in the last minutes. Having spent a lot of energy, Stephen Kenny's wards found themselves in a similar situation three days later. They conceded from Azerbaijan before the break and won back in the end. But they don't have Ronaldo, so the team was limited only to Duffy's goal in the 87th.

Serbia went to the last World Cup. But before that, the Eagles changed the coach and failed in Russia. Then there was a failed qualification for the Euro, with an anti-record defeat to Ukraine in Lviv. But the current version of the team seems more viable. It seems that Dragan Stojkovic, a legendary former football player, manages to control the situation in the locker room. In March, Serbia scored seven points out of nine possible (2-2 with Portugal and victories over Ireland and Azerbaijan). Having warmed up with a 4-0 victory over Qatar last Wednesday, the Eagles were able to defeat Luxembourg, which is also tough and capable of surprises. Mitrovic scored a double in the middle of the 1st half, and when the Red Lions hinted at the revival of intrigue (Thill scored in the 77th minute), the Serbs were able to score two more goals.
Serbia is a team that is very dangerous when it plays with the mood. Ireland had two difficult matches and had to fight for all 180+ minutes. We bet on the visitors, but with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Serbia to win with 0.0 handicap
