Serbia - Greece

Serbia face a significant test of their depth as they kick off their UEFA Nations League A Group 2 campaign against Greece on 24 September 2026. The hosts must navigate this opening matchday at Stadion Rajko Mitic without the services of key figures Dusan Vlahovic, Nikola Milenkovic, and Aleksa Terzic due to injury. The expected XI, anchored by Dusan Tadic and Luka Jovic, will be tasked with providing an immediate attacking spark to overcome these notable absences against a disciplined Greek side.

Greece travel to Belgrade with their own defensive concerns, as Pantelis Hatzidiakos is sidelined for the encounter. The visitors, featuring Konstantinos Tsimikas and Vangelis Pavlidis in the expected lineup, look to build on their historical meetings with Serbia. Their last competitive clash saw Greece secure a 1-0 victory in August 2010, while Serbia responded with a 2-0 win in November 2014. Both nations aim to establish early momentum in a challenging group.
