In England, the match against Serbia is a purely statistical affair, seemingly important only to coach Tuchel. This was clearly evident in coach Paunovic's press conference, where only one English journalist was present.
This fact was not well received by Kurir, the Serbian media, which spared no effort in its headline: "England humiliates Paunovic and Serbia," writes Kurir, referring to Paunovic's official press conference before the match with England.
It will be a final, but also an "almost impossible mission" for Serbia's match at London's "Wembly" stadium against England, the home team and leader of our qualifying group, qualified for the World Cup.
The hosts are absolute favorites, while the visitors want a result. The "Three Lions" have 3 absences, including defender Gehi, as well as two Newcastle players, Gordon and Pope.
Maybe Gehi could be against Albania. However, the European runners-up are in very good shape, and they have most of the stars in the team, even in very good shape. Such are captain Harry Kane, Phil Foden, Jude Bellingham or Saka, Rice or James.
Anderson has also overcome the injury.
England coach Thomas Tuchel says his team will play to win the match, as they always do, but he declined to refer to the 5-0 victory in Belgrade.
Germany emphasized that it is now a different challenge, and that Serbia has a different coach and seems to have more energy.
What about Serbia?
The Balkan team has had two completely different performances against England, because they did indeed lose 0-5 in Belgrade a few weeks ago in these qualifiers, but also suffered a minimal defeat, 0-1 in the group stage of the European Championship finals.
New coach Paunovic has injected more energy and confidence, and hope exists even though the mission at first glance seems impossible. The Serbs are missing injured captain Aleksandar Mitrovic as well as the Milinkovic-Savic brothers, who were not in the team under former coach Stojkovic.
However, talent and talent Paunovic stated that if the team does not have confidence in winning, it is useless to travel to England. The Balkan team went to London with high morale, despite the fact that the ghosts of the 0-5 defeat at "Rajko Mitic" cannot be driven away. The goal is victory, but perhaps a draw also allows them some hope
