Netherlands arrive unbeaten in their last five (3W 2D), scoring in every one of those games and conceding in all five too. Serbia, by contrast, have lost all five recent outings, shipping 14 goals and scoring just 3. Six Dutch players are missing through injury, which adds noise, but the structural gap between the sides is enormous. The model reads this as a near-certainty for the home side.
The two key inputs: Netherlands scored 13 goals in 5 games (2.6 per game average), while Serbia conceded in all 5 of their last matches. Over 2.5 lands in 4 of 5 Dutch games and 4 of 5 Serbian games. Model puts Over 2.5 at 95% and a Dutch win at 85%. Marathon prices Over 2.5 at 1.49, which is thin but reflects near-consensus.
Main tip: Netherlands home win at 1.27 (Marathon). The 85% model probability versus an implied 79% from the price still offers a small edge. Alt: Over 2.5 goals at 1.49 with 95% model backing - the volume of goals in both teams' recent form makes this the cleaner play if you want insurance against a shock result.
