Serbia and Montenegro will meet in one of the matches of the 5th round of the group stage of the OI-2020. Who will win the third victory?
Serbia
The Serbs approach the final round of the group stage with two wins and the same number of defeats. The first defeat occurred in the first round (12-13 from Spain), and the second in, to date, the last round (12-14 from Croatia). Accordingly, the Serbs won in the second and third rounds, coping with Kazakhstan (19-5) and Australia (14-8). At the moment, Serbia is in third place, two points behind the second.
Montenegro
The same two victories and two defeats against Montenegro, only the victories and defeats parted exactly the opposite, if we compare with Serbia: in the first and fourth rounds, the victories were 15: 10 over Australia and 19: 12 over Kazakhstan, and in the second and third rounds, the defeats were 6:8 from Spain and 8:13 from Croatia. Montenegro also has four points, but it is behind Serbia because of the worst difference in goals scored and conceded: +5 against +17.
Statistics and figures:
- Serbia has two wins with two defeats;
- Montenegro won in two out of four matches;
- Montenegro won against Serbia in one of the previous four matches.
Forecast
Despite the fact that both teams are still competing for the playoffs, I prefer Serbia, which performs more holistically, and they demonstrate a team game, but the Montenegrins often sin with inappropriate individual actions.
