This is not a vintage generation of German players, and the team’s experience so far in the Nations League suggests there is still plenty of work to be done.Heading into Friday’s clash with Serbia, Germany are third in Group A2. While they are unlikely to finish bottom, there is a very real chance that Klopp’s team will enter the relegation play-offs.A top-two finish is still within reach, but the Netherlands and Greece have both collected three more points than Germany at the time of writing.Victories over Serbia and the Netherlands in the coming days would be enough for Germany to qualify for the quarter-finals, but anything less would leave them vulnerable.That clash with the Dutch on Monday could end up being an all-or-nothing contest between the two rivals, but Germany must first take care of business against last-placed Serbia.Team formSerbia have lost six games on the spin and have conceded at least two goals in each of those matches. Germany have won just one of their last six games dating back to their final group game at the World Cup.TeamLast 5 (all competitions)Goals forGoals againstBTTSSerbiaL L L L L4134/5GermanyD D L W D432/5Ongoing injuriesSerbia will be unable to call upon the services of Aleksa Turkic and Strahinja Pavlovic. Germany will have to make do without Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala, Bambase Conte and Josha Vagnoman.Head-to-head recordGermany beat Serbia in the Nations League last month, but that came after two games without a win against those opponents – including a surprise 1-0 defeat at World Cup 2010.DateCompetitionFixtureResultOct 2026Nations LeagueGermany vs Serbia2-0Mar 2019International FriendlyGermany vs Serbia1-1Jun 2010World CupGermany vs Serbia0-1May 2008International FriendlyGermany vs Serbia2-1Team news and predicted line-upsSasa Lukic and Nemanja Maksimovic are not available for Serbia due to suspension.

Their four matches in Group A2 have produced four defeats, leaving them in danger of automatic relegation to League B.The only real positive for Serbia is that they have not been blown away up to now. A -5 goal difference is respectable enough, even if that will be scant consolation to supporters.Serbia have lost a total of six matches on the spin, so confidence in the camp will be low. Veljko Paunovic’s side have their work cut out against Germany, who will be eyeing a clean sheet as well as a victory. Back Germany to win to nil at 13/10 with Ladbrokes Expect lower goal countJurgen Klopp’s teams have always scored plenty of goals, but they also tend to concede their fair share in the early part of his tenure.That has not been the case with Germany, though. The Nationalelf have found the net only three times in four matches under Klopp, but their backline has been breached just twice.That trend is set to continue this week. Klopp will talk up the importance of a clean sheet, knowing his side would be in a strong position to win the game as long as they do not concede.A low goal count is a distinct possibility at the Rajko Mitic Stadium on Friday night. Tip under 3.5 goals at 3/4 with BoyleSports Wirtz to step upThe jury remains out on Florian Wirtz at club level. He scored one and set up another in Liverpool’s 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday, but Wirtz is still decorating games more than he is dominating them.Time will tell whether or not he is a success in the Premier League. For now, Wirtz still looks better suited to German football.The attacking midfielder is the main man for Germany at the moment, especially with Jamal Musiala on the treatment table. Wirtz can demonstrate his importance against Serbia. Go for Florian Wirtz to score anytime at 11/8 with SBK Where and when to watch in the UKDate: Friday 13th November.Kick-off: 7.45pm.Venue: Rajko Matic Stadium, Belgrade, Serbia.Where to watch: Amazon Prime Video.Key statsJurgen Klopp has only won one of four games in charge of Germany.Serbia have not kept a clean sheet in 13 consecutive matches.Germany have scored more than once in only one of their last six outings.FAQBelow you will find the answers to some frequently asked questions about the upcoming game.Who is the referee for the fixture?The referee for Serbia vs Germany is Javier Alberola Rojas.Where will the fixture take place?Serbia vs Germany will take place at the Rajko Matic Stadium in Belgrade, Serbia.What is the weather forecast for kick-off?The weather forecast for Serbia vs Germany is 14 degrees and drizzle.More Nations League predictionsWe have plenty more Nations League predictions and picks – find our latest betting tips from expert punters in our match preview overview.About the authorGreg LeaGreg Lea is a freelance football writer from London.
