Serbia vs Andorra, FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers, Today Match Prediction

Serbia vs Andorra Match Prediction & Analysis

The pressure is on Serbia as they welcome Andorra to Leskovac on Tuesday, seeking to finally secure a victory in their 2026 World Cup qualifying journey. While Serbia needs a strong performance to push for a top-two finish, Andorra arrives with newfound confidence after their brave display against England, ready to challenge the struggling hosts.

Fresh off retaining their Nations League top-flight status, Serbia returns home aiming for their first 2026 World Cup qualifying win after a 0-0 draw with Albania. With two wins in their last four home matches, the "Eagles" seek inspiration. 

Meanwhile, Andorra, despite recent improvements, faces an uphill battle. They arrive on a three-match losing streak and only one win in their last 26 outings, having already suffered defeats to Latvia, Albania, and England in this campaign.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Serbia Preview

Serbia's 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign began with a disappointing 0-0 draw against Albania, where they narrowly avoided defeat. Despite this sluggish start, expectations remain high for Dragan Stojkovic's side, who recently secured their Nations League top-flight status with a 3-1 aggregate playoff victory over Austria, extending their unbeaten run to four matches.

Now, at home in Leskovac, Serbia faces Andorra, a crucial match in their bid for a third consecutive World Cup appearance. With group favorites England also in contention, Serbia knows anything less than a win could be detrimental. 

Serbia boasts an impressive home record in World Cup qualifiers, remaining undefeated in their last 12 matches and losing only once in their last 20 overall. Furthermore, they've kept clean sheets in their last four home games. 

Despite a recent dip in overall form (just two wins in 13 matches), the coaching staff is expected to maintain their familiar 3-5-2 formation, prioritizing attack with the potent duo of Aleksandar Mitrović and Dušan Vlahović leading the line from the start against their considerably weaker opponent.

Serbia Probable Starting Lineup: Petrovic (Gk); Erakovic, Milenkovic, Pavlovic; Nedeljkovic, Gudelj, Maksimovic, Terzic; Samardzic; Vlahovic, Mitrovic

Andorra Preview

Andorra, despite their familiar last-place position in Group K, enters their fourth qualifier with newfound confidence after an unexpectedly strong showing against England. While previous matches saw them lose 1-0 to Latvia and 3-0 to Albania, Koldo Alvarez's side frustrated the star-studded English attack, ultimately falling 1-0 in Barcelona.

As a tiny microstate with limited resources, Andorra finished bottom of their Nations League group and has secured only one win in their last 26 fixtures, failing to score in their last five.

 They embark for Serbia with hope rather than expectation, likely eyeing upcoming games against Estonia and Latvia for their best chance to get off the mark. Their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign has been marked by three consecutive defeats and no goals, though the narrow loss to England provided a rare positive. 

Andorra's squad depth is limited, meaning the same players who faced England, with Iker Alvarez a key figure, are likely to start again. They are currently on a 13-game goalless streak across all competitions.

Andorra Probable Starting Lineup: Alvarez (Gk); Borra, Llovera, Vales, C. Garcia, San Nicolas; Rodrigo, Guillen, Babot, Cervos; Fernandez

SERBIA vs ANDORRA
Winning Prediction

Serbia are strong favorites, but Andorra's resilience, showcased against England, suggests they won't be easily thrashed. While Andorra's attack is weak, Serbia's struggles in positional play mean a high-scoring game is unlikely. Expect a professional performance from Serbia, securing a comfortable victory, likely 3-0.

Serbia to Win (3-0)
