- The Republic of Ireland have made a steady start to their Nations League campaign with a win, a draw and a defeat from their opening three fixtures. These two sides met just last Sunday in Hungary, where Ireland ran out 3–0 winners, and they now reconvene in Serbia for the reverse clash.
- Ireland’s Nations League history remains a sticking point — four straight third‑place finishes in League B, their most defeats in a single campaign last time out (W2, L4), and a play‑off needed to avoid relegation — but that dominant win over Israel should give the Boys in Green real belief. Victory here would put them firmly in the promotion conversation, and they’re EVS with William Hill to get it.
- Israel arrive in Serbia with just one point on the board after Thursday’s 0–0 draw with Kosovo, and defeat here would leave their League B status hanging by a thread.
- Ran Ben‑Shimon’s side have now conceded three or more in five of their last ten matches, a worrying trend as pressure mounts. Even so, punters can back Israel to take all three points at 12/5 with William Hill.
