The regional derby, Hungary vs Serbia, could be another proof that two sides are going in different directions after the host advanced to the next EURO and guests failed to do that on Thursday evening.
The Hungarians netted twice in the final minutes on Thursday to book their spot at next summer’s finals – a qualification of extra importance considering Puskas Arena is one of the host venues for the delayed competition. Marco Rossi’s side may well have been celebrating their success in the aftermath, but they should also be in a buoyant mood when they take to the pitch this Sunday. A Norbert Konyves goal separated these two sides in Belgrade last month and Hungarian football overall is in a great state of mind after recent Ferencvaros success when they jumped in the group stage of the UCL.
The Hungarians are eager to overtake Russia in top position in Group 3, and given their rock-solid defense, there are enough reasons to believe that they are favorites to win this group, the two remaining fixtures for the Russians are on the road, while for the Magyars – both of their match-ups are at home, including this upcoming one. The Magyars were held to a goalless draw against Russia at the last match-day in the competition so they will have two chances to win and also to see if Russians could fail to deliver as the visiting team.
Loic Nego may have put himself in the frame to start for Hungary after coming off the bench to score against Iceland. Marco Rossi may also bring in the likes of David Siger and Nemanja Nikolic as he aims to keep his side fresh ahead of their final Nations League game against Turkey on Wednesday.
Hungary: Gulacsi; Orban, Lang, Szalai; Nego, Siger, Nagy, Szoboszlai, Holender; Szalai, Nikolic
Serbia's dreams were shattered as they were beaten on penalties by Scotland after drawing 1-1 in 120 minutes. Scotland was the better team for most of the match, they had a lead through Cristie after a good start of the second half but Serbia equalized with Jović in the last of 90 minutes. In the overtime, Serbia was the better team but failed to score, and in the last round of penalties, goalkeeper Marshal saved Aleksandar Mitrović shot from the spot to give guests a place in the next EURO.
It means that Serbia has now failed to qualify for the European Championships in each of their four attempts since first competing as an independent country in 2006. They have not kept a clean sheet in their last eight away matches, last doing so in Romania in October 2018 – before Ljubisa Tumbakovic was in charge. They are bottom of the group, having not won any of their first four games. They have scored just three goals, with Aleksandar Mitrovic netting two of those.
After not featuring against Scotland, Serbia captain Aleksandar Kolarov could start, but his club Inter Milan are keen for him not to play a part as he has been suffering from a muscle injury lately. The attacking trio of Dusan Tadic, Aleksandar Mitrovic, and Luka Jovic has not all been deployed together in the Nations League so far, but could all start as Serbia search for goals.
Serbia: Dmitrovic; Milenkovic, Spajic, Kolarov; Gudelj; Lazovic, Milinkovic-Savic, Tadic, Mladenovic; Jovic, Mitrovic

Hungary is at its best, while Serbia has many problems at this moment. Ljubiša Tumbaković is under pressure and the loss in the next game is expected. Hungary has better team chemistry and the home win must be a reasonable bet for this match.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
