World Cup Qualification 2026: Andorra-Serbia, the probable formations

Reduced by two consecutive defeats, on Sept. 9 against England (0-5) and on Oct. 11 with Albania (0-1), Serbia is now with its back to the wall: in fact, it needs to keep its concentration high in order to beat Andorra in the 2026 World Cup qualifying match and keep alive its hopes of at least going to the playoffs, ranking second in Group K.

The national team of the small Pyrenean principality has little to ask of the group but comes from a 2-2 draw in Latvia that allowed the men led by coach Koldo to win the first and so far only point of a campaign without further highlights. Scoring in Saturday’s match were Moises San Nicolas and Ian Oliveira, both of whom are also among the likely eleven against the Serbs.

The Balkans, coached by former Atalanta player Zoran Mirkovic (who took over as interim coach just in the aftermath of the Serbs’ loss to Albania, which led to the resignation of Dragan Stojkovic), will go for a double center forward, with Juventus’ Vlahovic and Mitrovic sharing duties in the penalty area. On the flanks there will be room for Zivkovic and another Juventus man, Kostic.

Probable lineups

ANDORRA (5-4-1): Alvarez; Borra, Oliveira, Llovera, Garcia, San Nicolas; Rodrigo, M. Vales, Teixeira, Cervos; Rosas. C.t. Koldo.

SERBIA (3-5-2): Petrovic; Milosavljevic, Veljkovic, Pavlovic; Zivkovic, Stankovic, Maksimovic, Kostic; Samardzic; Vlahovic, A. Mitrovic. C.t. Mirkovic.
