England's battle against Eastern European powerhouse Serbia is the focus of Europe's Group C. The "Three Lions" are considered the favorites to win the tournament. The Three Lions, considered the favorites to win the title, will be aiming for three points on their debut in the group stage, and will be able to lock up the win quickly thanks to their rich experience in the game. Facing the powerful England, Serbia will defend the city and try to keep the number of goals scored at 2.5.
After finishing as runners-up in the last edition of the World Cup in Qatar, England is making a comeback this summer, with the team's ambition to be crowned champions. In recent years, the "Three Lions" have emerged a lot of talent, especially in the midfield, Zudi Binningham, Phil Cotton, Bukajo Shaka and other rising stars, and the captain of the team's ace goal scorer Halikani, with the ability to win the game. However, the team has not yet adjusted to its best form, losing to Iceland in the warm-up match and winning only one of its last five international matches. Nevertheless, England tends to be "steady as an old dog" in group matches, even though they have scored no more than 2 goals in their last 7 Euro group matches, so it is expected that even if they win this match, it may only be a "minor" one.
In England's defense, Harry Makouni is out due to injury, and Lauki Suhr is also troubled by injury. Coach Shuufki may use Crystal Palace's Kian Makguhi and change the left goal position to Jebbia, emphasizing on defense. If the defense line is not stable, once the first goal is conceded, they may be in a passive situation.
Serbia's head coach Stew leads a team that specializes in ball control passing. The team has won 1 and lost 1 of their recent warm-up matches. At the end of last year, they lost 0-1 against Belgium, but their morale is high. Facing the strong pressure of England, Serbia will shrink its defense, relying on scorers such as Aleksandar Mizunovic and Dusin Huahovic to create offensive opportunities and try to "steal the chicken" to score. It is expected that this game will be a battle between offense and defense, and the number of goals will not be too many.
