England welcome Serbia to Wembley in 2026 World Cup qualifying, and there’s plenty at stake even though the Three Lions have already booked their ticket. Thomas Tuchel’s side have been flawless so far — six wins from six, 18 goals scored, none conceded — and they’ll want to keep that perfect record alive on home soil. So, if you’re wondering about the England vs Serbia prediction, let’s dive into everything that matters ahead of this clash.
England’s squad looks sharp and settled under Thomas Tuchel. The manager has established a clear 4-2-3-1 shape built on control, pressing, and relentless attacking intent. At Wembley, they’ve dominated matches, averaging 74% possession and almost total control from start to finish.
Harry Kane continues to lead the line and the team by example. The England captain has been on fire, scoring 24 goals for club and country this season. He’s already netted six times in these qualifiers and found the target against Serbia in the 5–0 away win earlier in the campaign.
Behind him, Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze, and Marcus Rashford have offered flexibility and flair across the attacking line. Declan Rice and Elliot Anderson anchor midfield with composure and balance, shielding a back four that’s barely been tested.
For Serbia, it’s been a tougher road. Dragan Stojkovic’s side have been inconsistent — three wins, one draw, and two defeats — scoring and conceding seven goals each. Their 3-4-1-2 system can look tidy against weaker teams, but it tends to fall apart under sustained pressure from stronger opponents. Serbia have struggled to keep clean sheets lately and have failed to score in their last two games.
England (4-2-3-1): Pickford; James, Stones, Guehi, Burn; Rice, Anderson; Saka, Eze, Rashford; Kane
Serbia (3-1-4-2): Petrovic; Erakovic, Milenkovic, Pavlovic; Zivkovic, Lukic, Maksimovic, Kostic; Ilic; Birmancevic, Vlahovic
Without touching any odds, it’s fair to say this one looks heavily tilted toward England. Tuchel’s team are on a roll — 18 points from six matches, 18 goals scored, zero conceded. They’ve faced just 21 shots across the entire campaign and only two of those have even been on target.
Serbia, by contrast, have been leaky at the back. They’ve conceded seven goals in six games and tend to crumble when pressed high. England’s structure and energy make them tough to break down, and with Kane in such clinical form, goals at the other end feel inevitable.
A win to nil feels likely again here, with England maintaining their defensive perfection.
It’s hard to look past England continuing their perfect run. Tuchel’s team are balanced, composed, and playing with clarity in every area of the pitch. Serbia will try to hold shape and counter, but England’s control of possession and pressing structure should keep them penned in.
Expect the Three Lions to dominate both territory and tempo, with Kane leading from the front and the supporting trio of Rashford, Saka, and Eze rotating fluidly behind him.
Match Prediction: England to win. Bet with bet365.
Given England’s defensive record and attacking flow, another clean sheet looks on the cards. Serbia haven’t scored in three of their last games against strong opposition and rarely look threatening when pressed back.
England have averaged three goals per match during this campaign, and that pattern should continue.
Correct Score Prediction: England 3–0 Serbia. Bet with bet365.
If you’re looking at goals, this match sets up nicely for an “Over 2.5 Goals” pick. England’s front line consistently creates volume — nearly 20 shots and over eight on target per game. Serbia’s defence has been exposed before and struggles to stay compact under pressure.
England to score at least three feels realistic, but Serbia’s scoring struggles suggest the total will come entirely from the hosts.
Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
A realistic multi-leg bet builder could include:
That combination reflects England’s control, consistency, and Kane’s relentless form in front of goal.
Bet Builder Tip: England win to nil, Over 2.5 total goals, and Harry Kane to score anytime. Bet with bet365.

Based on current form and performances, England are clear favourites to win again, especially at Wembley.
Kane has scored in four of his six qualifiers and already netted against Serbia earlier this campaign. It would be no surprise to see him on the scoresheet again.
It looks unlikely. They’ve struggled for consistency and have conceded heavily against top-tier teams, while England’s defence has been unbreakable so far.
A confident 3–0 home win for England looks the most realistic outcome.
