But a first-ever win at the Euros will be necessary and, with England up in their Group C finale, there is a bit of pressure on this trip to Munich.
Still yet to reach the knockout rounds of a major tournament since their days as Yugoslavia, the Serbs are the narrow favourites to take all three points here.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Slovenia vs Serbia is scheduled for a 2pm BST kick-off on Thursday June 20, 2024.
The match will take place at Allianz Arena, Munich.

Slovenia vs Serbia team news
Benjamin Verbic could enter the Slovenia XI having been used off the bench against Denmark, following an injury doubt.
The impressive Benjamin Sesko will continue to lead their line.
Dusan Tadic was surprisingly left out of the Serbia line-up against England and could return on Thursday to add some more attacking impetus.
Aleksandar Mitrovic departed after only an hour following a quiet display but should remain in the XI.
Slovenia vs Serbia prediction
Neither team looked like potential dark horses for a deep run into the tournament in the opening week.
Both have fairly sturdy defences and talented big men up front, so expect goals but Serbia just have the edge in terms of talent.
