Serbia and Hungary go head-to-head at the Red Star Stadium in Group G of the 2024 European Champions qualifiers on Thursday.
Both sides have enjoyed an unbeaten qualifying journey so far and are currently level on seven points at the top of the table.
Serbia saw their 100% record in the Euro 2024 qualifiers come to an end as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Bulgaria on June 20.
Stojkovic’s men were previously on a run of four consecutive victories, including wins over Lithuania and Montenegro in the European Championship qualifiers.
Serbia now return home, where they are on a four-match winning streak, scoring 13 goals and conceding four since a 1-0 loss against Norway.
Elsewhere, Hungary returned to winning ways in style as they saw off Lithuania 2-0 when the sides met at the Puskás Aréna Park last time out.
Prior to that, Marco Rossi’s men kicked off the qualifiers with a 3-0 victory over Bulgaria in the Group G opener on March 27, three months before playing out a goalless draw with Montenegro.
With seven points from a possible nine, Hungary are currently first in Group G, only above Thursday’s hosts on goal difference.
