FK Crvena Zvezda take on the visitors Krasnodar at “Rajko Mitic Stadium” in the reverse fixture of the Qualification final round of the UEFA Europa League. The game will be played in Belgrade on Thursday, August 24th. The first-leg match ended with 3:2 scoreline in favour of Krasnodar.
Having lost in Russia, FK Crvena Zvezda broke their 11-clash undefeated streak in this season which covered nine victories and two draws. Despite the failure in Krasnodar, the Serbians showed good play especially in offense. In the UEFA Europa League the side has passed through three opponents already, having won confidently all home encounters: vs. Floriana 3:0, vs. I. Pavlodar 2:0 and Sparta Prague 2:0. The Serbians winning series at the home ground counts for eight matches with 24:2 aggregated score and has been lasting since the 13th of May.

Krasnodar have also succeeded in a number of clashes of the new season. After seven gameweeks behind the club settles on the fifth position in the table of the Russian Premier League with 12 points taken. In the UEFA Europa League the Russians participated in three engrossing fights ended with over scored goals: vs. Lyngby 2:1, 3:1 and vs. FK Crvena Zvezda 3:2. This season Igor Shalimov’s side conducted five encounters on the road resulting in a single loss alongside with three wins and one draw.
I think that the forthcoming battle will be a continuation of the first-leg game in Krasnodar. In face of their fans the most hosts’ players will be engaged in offense providing the visiting team with a possibility to play on the break. I believe that the total will be broken as well in the fourth clash of Krasnodar in this season’s Eurocups.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
