Portugal vs Serbia
The Portuguese definitely dominated the debut game but did not find the way to the goal.
Montenegro vs England are part of Group A, where they will meet with Bulgaria, Kosovo and the Czech Republic.
Portugal finished the first position in Group A of the League A of the Nations last fall, with 8 points accumulating in 4 stages. They managed to outrun Italy and Poland, reaching “Final 4”. Today’s hosts debuted in this qualifying campaign with a 0-0 draw against their own, 0-0 against Ukraine. Ronaldo & co. but they definitely dominated the game, with no less than 17 goals and 18 corners. Portugal’s representation is in the championship, managing to win the Euro 2016 after a final with France. The only goal of the team was then scored by Eder.
- Probable team: Patricio – Guerreiro, Dias, Pepe, Cancelo – Carvalho – Moutinho, Neves – Ronaldo, Silva, Silva
On the other side, Serbia finished in first position in Group 4 of League C, with 14 points accumulated. They beat Romania, Montenegro and Lithuania without much emotion, and thus managed to promote in League B. The Serbs played a friendly match before the start of the preliminaries, managed to get a draw in the move from Germany, score 1-1. Serbia was the last time in Portugal, also in the European Championship preliminaries in March 2015. Then the neighbors of Romania lost to the limit on the field of the Lusitans with the score of 2-1.
- The probable team: Rajkovic – Rukavina, Spajic, Milenkovic, Bogosavac – Maskimovic, Gacinovic, Milinkovic Savic – Lazovic, Jovic, Ljajic
Portugal assaulted the gate of the Ukrainians for 90 minutes and only a miracle made the score unchanged. Certainly they are harassed after the white draw a few days ago and I expect to try to sign up for the first 30 minutes. On the other hand, Serbia is a very good team that made a beautiful figure at the World Championship in Russia.
