But a first-ever win at the Euros will be necessary and, with England up in their Group C finale, there is a bit of pressure on this trip to Munich.

Serbia impressed with a strong second-half display against the Three Lions, albeit one which failed to yield any serious chances on goal.

Still yet to reach the knockout rounds of a major tournament since their days as Yugoslavia, the Serbs are the narrow favourites to take all three points here.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Slovenia vs Serbia is scheduled for a 2pm BST kick-off today on Thursday June 20, 2024.

The match will take place at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

Slovenia vs Serbia prediction

Neither team looked like potential dark horses for a deep run into the tournament in the opening week.

Both have fairly sturdy defences and talented big men up front, so expect goals but Serbia just have the edge in terms of talent.

Serbia to win, 2-1.
