England can take a huge step towards winning this World Cup qualifying group if they win in Serbia. This is their fifth match in Group K and they lead the Serbs by five points but from a game more. Here’s our match prediction.
Tuchel continues to be an unpopular appointment after a disappointing 2-0 win for England over Andorra on Saturday. They are yet to concede a goal in this group but the teams played (Andorra, Latvia and Albania) are hardly world-beaters. This trip to Serbia (who they play at Wembley on November 13) will be a far tougher task.
Serbia can go top of the group if they win this match and then beat Albania next month. They are in the play-off position; two points clear of Albania and with a game in hand. The Serbs are on a good unbeaten run at present and will be out to inflict a first group defeat on England.

Serbia - England: Form Analysis
England have won all four of their group matches and have done so without having a goal put past them. They’ve faced poor opposition though and the quality of their play under Tuchel has not pleased England fans with a distinct lack of attacking flair being shown.
Seven of their last eight games have been won. The other was an appalling 3-1 home loss to Senegal in June. 20 of their last 24 World Cup qualifiers have been won with the other four drawn.
England have never lost to Serbia.
The one previous Serbia v England international ended in a 1-0 win for England in last year’s European Championships.
Serbia come into this game unbeaten in their last seven matches. Their most recent game saw them defeat Latvia 1-0. Nine of their last 11 internationals have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. The Serbs have qualified for the last two World Cup finals and Euro 2024.

Serbia & England Squad Analysis
England will again be without Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham and Bukayo Saka for this World Cup qualifier in Serbia. Also out of the squad are Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton and John Stones of Manchester City.
While those absences weren't felt so much against Andorra, the same may not be the case when they travel to Belgrade to take on Serbia. Tuchel put out a strong side against Andorra which made the substandard performance even more disappointing.
Anderson made a good debut on Saturday.
Elliot Anderson of Nottingham Forest made a good debut for England and is expected to start for this match. What will England want from this game? A win would almost seal the group but avoiding defeat is likely to be their primary aim.
Serbia's winning goal against Latvia was scored by Dusan Vlahovic. He will be up front again in this match alongside Luka Jovic. Aleksandar Mitrovic is again likely to start the match on the bench. He's certainly a dangerous player to come on in the second half.
Serbia have two wins and a draw from their three group games. Recent Bournemouth signing Djordje Petrovic is again expected to be in goal for Serbia. Other players familiar to the English team include Sasa Lukic of Fulham and Nottingham Forest's Nikola Milenkovic.

Our Serbia vs England Prediction
An uninspiring England team top the group by five points. All four games have been won but earned against Albania, Latvia and Andorra. Now comes a much tougher task for Tuchel's team as they travel to Belgrade to take on second-placed Serbia.
The Serbs are unbeaten in their last seven games and beat Latvia 1-0 at the weekend. A win will boost their chances of automatic qualification. This looks like being a tight match and our main Serbia v England prediction is under 2.5 goals to be scored.
