Portugal are the reigning European and Nations League champions but are yet to win a game in this qualifying group. They have only played two games so far because of their time in the Nations League, which they won earlier this summer. Portugal took on Ukraine in their opening Euro 2020 group match and were held to a goalless draw. That was followed by a home match against Serbia and they soon found themselves 1-0 down. They got back into the game with a 42nd minute equalizer but the match ended level at 1-1. Going into this game, Portugal are two points behind Luxembourg with two games in hand and eight behind leaders Ukraine, also with a couple of games in hand. 

Serbia are third in the group and have won one, drawn one and lost one of their qualifying groups. It's been a rather inconsistent performance to date and started well with that 1-1 draw in Portugal. They didn't build on that though losing their next qualifier 5-0 in Ukraine. Serbia's only home game so far in this group got them their first victory as they defeated Lithuania 4-1 with a couple of goals from Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic. Serbia are undefeated in their last five home games and only Belgium have been able to beat them in 20 home Euro qualifiers. Go for a double chance bet on Serbia to win or draw this match.
