Wales v Serbia: What TV channel is it on, what is the team news and what are the latest odds for the World Cup Qualifying clash?


WALES welcome Group D leaders Serbia to the Cardiff City Stadium in a match that could see them leapfrog their opponents at the top of the table.

The Euro 2016 semi finalists played out a disappointing 1-1 draw with lowly Georgia last month, a match that Chris Coleman‘s men will want to show was just a blip.

The Spurs left back suffered the knock in last week’s 1-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen.

Bristol City’s Adam Matthews, on loan from Sunderland, comes in to replace him.
