Serbia v Andorra at Andorra La Vela
Venue: Campus de Consell
Referee: P.Mariaud (France)
Serbia’s last outing was a huge turnaround from the 3-33 loss to Slovenia.
Preview
There is very little between all the teams in this division of the European Nations Cup. All have won a game and lost a game, no team dominating.
Although Serbia has defeated Andorra in Andorra before, they don’t have as a good an overall record as the Andorians and at present lie at the bottom of the table. Both teams have injury worries and the Serbians do not look to have their strongest squad travelling.
