Costa Rica – Serbia betting preview and advices
At the World Cup in Brazil four years ago, the Tikos made a lot of noise and, probably, became the main sensation of that tournament. Costa Rica has not lost a single game in the group stage and became the first, leaving behind such monsters as England, Italy and Uruguay! Moreover, the team was able to pass Greece in Round of 16 and lost to the Netherlands in the quarterfinals only in the penalty shoot-out. Then as now, the Tikos are considered the main outsider of Group E, but this time there is no need to wait for miracles – Costa Rica squad looks very weak. Only a few footballers play in European clubs, and even in these average clubs, they are not in the first roles. Starting XI is represented by players from Liga FPD and MLS. As for Serbia, we see many experienced and several star players who have had a good season in clubs like Lazio, Villarreal, Roma, Fiorentina, Werder Bremen, Benfica, Liverpool and Manchester United.

However rude it may sound, Costa Rica can be called a tourists in Russia… The team has no chance of reaching the playoffs, and the best result for it will be to avoid all three defeats, which, however, is unlikely to happen. Switzerland and Brazil are able to easily beat this opponent, so duel against Serbia is not only the first, but also the only game in which they can try to grab points. However, this game will also be crucial clash for the White Eagles, as counting on the points against Brazil will be too daring, and with the Swiss, an equal game is expected, even with a small advantage of the rival. If Serbia will not take victory against the Tikos – they can pack their bags and forget about the playoffs.

Serbia did not look strong on defensive in the qualification, also friendlies before the World Cup left not the best impression. There are bad atmosphere in the team and misunderstanding with the head coach. It’s unlikely that the White Eagles consider themselves capable of scoring many goals even against such poor side as Costa Rica, so they will not give them many chances to counterattack and play in a cautious and defensive football, winning by one or two goals and keeping a clean sheet.

Costa Rica – Serbia Other markets tips → Correct Score: 0 – 2 @ 7.80 with |
The Serbs have big names in their line of defence, represented by such experienced performers as Tosic, Ivanovic, Kolarov, Milenkovic and others. Looking at the Tikos` forward line, it is hard to believe that they will be able to score to the White Eagles. The skill of Marco Urena from Los Angeles raises reasonable doubts, and the main star Brian Ruiz did not have game practice in Benfica this season. Most likely, Costa Ricans will not be able to score, which means the stake ‘team to score first’ seems obvious.
