Germany and Serbia meet in the UEFA Nations League tonight, with the two sides coming off their most recent matches in very different moods. Germany lost at home 0-1, while Serbia also lost 1-2 despite leading at certain points. This game is therefore one where both teams want to steady themselves again. Germany have clearly been the side with more possession in recent times and have created shots on target more consistently, but the problem is they do not finish clinically. Their recent form has been a mix of draws and defeats, leaving them without a win for several matches. Serbia's form is much heavier, losing their recent matches and with a defence that frequently switches off, especially late in the first half when the goals they concede make up a high proportion of all the goals they have let in. If Germany can press as expected and take the lead before half-time, the game should flow in one direction, because Serbia would have to open up and fight, which risks being caught on the counter. The first half may still be even, but the second half should be when Germany pull away more clearly.
