Norway to take the win
We kick off our tips for this match by backing Norway to win the game and, as a result, they'll confirm themselves as group winners too. Form wise, there is very little in this match with Norway winning three of their last five matches with a draw and a defeat closing out that five game period. That's the exact same story for Serbia; they've won three, lost one and drawn one in their last five matches. What is notable though is Serbia's defeat – it came at the hands of Norway and, equally important is the fact that Norway were away from home in that game. Here they'll have their home fans cheering them on and those two factors – the head to head record and home advantage – make us think the Norwegians will get the job done.
Anticipating goals
Our next prediction for this match is focussed on the total goals market and we are backing over 2.5. Norway have breached this threshold in three of their past five games with eight goals seen across their last two matches! Serbia meanwhile have seen three of their past four matches go over 2.5 with a total of 10 goals seen in that period. With that form and the fact the head to head record is 50/50 between over and under 2.5 goals has us leaning towards the ‘over' bet with the superior odds one of the key factors in our decision making process.

A group deciding game that will be decided by key strikers
The Nations League can get pelters at times for being sub-standard and boring; that's unlikely to be the case here as two decent sides do battle to determine who tops the group to win promotion to the higher tier. With star quality in both sides as well, there is a lot to like about this match.
Norway have been in good form of late and with Erling Haaland up front it's fair to say they'll be pulling a big audience for this match. We expect the Man City man to start and to play a big role in the outcome of this match.
Norway Predicted lineup – Nyland, Meling, Ostigard, Hanche-Olsen, Ryerson, Odegaard, Berge, Thorstvedt, Sorloth, Haaland, Elyounoussi
Norway's Haaland might be a headline stealer but Serbia have their own hot shot up top in Aleksander Mitrovic. He impressed last time out bagging a 50-minute hat-trick and will want to have his say in this match too. His strike partner Dusan Vlahovic isn't bad either!
Serbia Predicted lineup – Milinkovic-Savic, Masovic, Mitrovic, Babic, Zivkovic, Lukic, Kostic, Tadic, Milinkovic-Savic, Vlahovic, Mitrovic
