Germany vs Serbia Prediction, Team News & Super Sub Tips

Thu, 1 Oct 2026 · 19:45 UK · 20:45 CET/CEST · Allianz Arena, Munich

Jürgen Klopp named two separate squads for this window, so Germany's team against Serbia will look very different from the one that drew 1-1 in the Netherlands and lost 1-0 to Greece. Florian Wirtz, Nick Woltemade, Karim Adeyemi and Aleksandar Pavlović are in Squad B; Joshua Kimmich, Jamal Musiala and Kai Havertz are not. Serbia have lost both games 2-1. With so many new faces, minutes are hard to predict, which makes substitution protection on player bets especially useful.

Our call

Prediction: Germany 2-1 Serbia

Germany are under pressure after one point from two games, and Squad B still has more individual quality than Serbia. Serbia have scored in both games, so we expect them to score too.

These are editorial opinions, not priced recommendations. We have not verified current odds, and player selections depend on the official line-ups.

1X2

Form & tactics

Current form and how the match could play out

🇩🇪 Germany

Germany drew 1-1 in Amsterdam in Klopp's first game after a late Netherlands equaliser, then lost 1-0 at home to Greece. One point from two games.

🇷🇸 Serbia

Serbia lost 2-1 to Greece and 2-1 to the Netherlands. No points yet.

  • Squad B is built around Wirtz between the lines, with Woltemade or Jonathan Burkardt up front and Adeyemi's pace out wide.
  • Serbia have scored in both games but conceded twice in each. Germany's new-look back line (Anton, Thiaw, Jeltsch, Raum, Mittelstädt and Baku are in the squad) has never played together.

Substitution protection

Super Sub for Germany vs Serbia

Super Sub-style features can continue an eligible player selection with a replacement when the selected player is substituted. The operator's rules determine which selections qualify and how they settle. These features do not guarantee a win or protect team markets such as match results and total corners.

The list below only shows bookmakers licensed in your country with a substitution feature recorded in our database, and the markets their own rules name. Availability on this specific international match is decided market by market by the operator.

Loading bookmakers for your country…

Substitution protection is applied market by market. Coverage of UEFA Nations League fixtures is not confirmed individually for each operator — check that the feature badge is shown on the exact bet before you place it.

18+ · T&Cs apply · Please gamble responsibly

  1. Choose your country and check the operator's local eligibility requirements.
  2. Read the feature rules: eligible players, markets, replacements and bet types can differ.
  3. Confirm the player starts and that the exact selection shows the feature before placing the bet.
  4. Check the final odds and any offer terms. Set a limit you can afford; no bet is guaranteed.

FAQ

Germany vs Serbia: questions and answers

What time is Germany vs Serbia?

20:45 CEST (19:45 UK) on Thursday 1 October 2026 at the Allianz Arena, Munich.

Is Florian Wirtz playing against Serbia?

Wirtz is in Klopp's Squad B for the Serbia and Greece games. Check the official XI.

Why are Kimmich and Musiala not in the Serbia squad?

Klopp named two squads for this window. Kimmich, Musiala and Havertz were in the squad for the Netherlands and Greece games.

Why use a Super Sub bookmaker for this match?

Line-ups are uncertain in a three-games-in-eight-days window. With Super Sub protection (Sub On Play On, Sub Switch, Impact Sub and similar), an eligible player bet — for example on Nick Woltemade or Florian Wirtz — can move to the replacement if your player starts and is substituted. It does not help if he does not start, and the bet can still lose. Check each operator's rules and wait for the official XI.
