Just over seven weeks Betting tips today – Spain v Serbia on from their Euro 2024 triumph, Spain travel to the Rajko Mitic Stadium in Belgrade to face Serbia in their opening match of the 2024-25 UEFA Nations League on Thursday night.

Betting tips today
Spain are preparing for their first fixture since beating England 2-1 in the final of Euro 2024 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin on July 14 – becoming the first nation to win the competition four times.
La Roja were by far and away the standout performers on the continent and deservedly triumphed in Germany. Not only did they become the first European nation to win all seven matches at a major tournament (Euros and World Cup), they also scored more goals (15) than any other team in Euros history.
Luis de la Fuente has won 17 of his 21 matches as Spain head coach since taking the reins in December 2022, and Euro 2024 represents his second major title having previously steered his country to glory at the 2022-23 Nations League. Betting tips today – Spain v Serbia
Indeed, Spain finished top of their group ahead of Portugal, Switzerland and Czech Republic after accumulating 11 points from six games, before beating Italy in the semi-finals and Croatia on penalties in the final following a 0-0 draw.
Ranked third in the world by FIFA, Spain will be regarded as favourites to top League A Group 4 this time around, and they begin their campaign against a Serbia side whom they have only previously faced on one occasion – winning a friendly 2-0 back in May 2012. Betting tips today – Spain v Serbia

Betting tips today – Spain v Serbia
Serbia competed at the European Championship this summer as an independent nation for the first time since 2000 and they were tipped by many to progress beyond the group stage, but they ultimately flattered to deceive. Betting tips today – Spain v Serbia
Indeed, Dragan Stojkovic has now failed to win any of his six matches in charge of Serbia at major tournaments, with the Eagles finishing bottom of Group C at Euro 2024 after picking up just two points from games against England, Denmark and Slovenia.
Serbia had more joy in their previous Nations League campaign, though, as they secured promotion to League A after winning four of their six matches to finish top of League B Group 4 ahead of Norway, Slovenia and Sweden.
Ranked 32nd in the world by FIFA, Serbia have in fact progressed from League C to League A within the last three Nations League tournaments and boast a record of nine wins, six draws and only three defeats.
The Eagles may find it challenging to top League A Group 4 this time around, though, and face a difficult opening fixture on Thursday against Spain, who have only lost two of their last 21 internationals since the beginning of 2023.

Shrewsbury vs Leyton Orient – Leyton Orient at 27/20 with bet365
Shrewsbury and Leyton Orient are locked together at the bottom of League One with zero points from three games but there is a difference in quality between the sides and it could be evident this weekend with the Londoners looking overpriced to take the win.
Orient manager Richie Wellens steered his team to 11th place last season and is convinced that he has built an even stronger squad.
And Wellens’s team have played reasonably well despite losing at home to Bolton (2-1), away to Charlton (1-0) and at home to Birmingham (2-1).
Football betting tips today
Orient showed their quality with a 1-0 success at Championship side Millwall in the EFL Cup second round on Tuesday and they can stun the Shrews, who were beaten 4-1 by Peterborough in their last home league game.
