Crvena Zvezda take on the visitors Young Boys in the round 2 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 4th at Stadion Rajko Mitić (Belgrade).
Crvena Zvezda risks losing dominance in Serbian football. The Red Star have consistently been winning championship titles since 2018. And it seemed like nothing would change, especially since last season, even Partizan, their eternal rival, fell behind, and the sensational Baka Topola became the vice-champion. But now, the long-time flagship is trailing behind these teams, having lost quite a few points. Against this backdrop, not much was expected from their performances in the Champions League, especially when they started on the field against Manchester City. However, the Serbs in England managed to win the first half... Though they still conceded upon their return from the locker room and later added a couple more.

Young Boys - back to being the best in Switzerland. The Bees took over the dominance from Basel and won four consecutive championship titles from 2018 to 2021. However, they slipped to third place immediately after that. But right after that, last summer, Rafael Vicky appeared in Bern and led his team to a golden double! Currently, the yellow and black team is performing well on their home turf. However, in the Champions League, despite easily passing the qualification against Maccabi Haifa, the Swiss team proved to be weaker at home than RB Leipzig, losing 1-3. Nevertheless, it was clear from the start that the real challenge in the battle for third place would be against the Serbs.
The teams have already met twice in the Champions League, albeit in the qualification stage. In the end, Crvena Zvezda secured a single victory over Young Boys with three draws. The Serbs are considered favorites, but they haven't been particularly impressive. We'll take a risk and assume that the visitors can avoid defeat in this match.
Prediction for the match: Young Boys not to lose (X2).
