FC Crvena Zvezda hosts CFR Cluj in the first leg of the Europa League qualification final. The match will be played on Tuesday, August 17th at Stadion Rajko Mitić (Belgrade)
The European Cup season has just begun, and Crvena Zvezda has already failed the main task. The club didn’t manage to make it to the Champions League group. An insurmountable barrier was a modest Tiraspol Sheriff (1-1 in Serbia and an away defeat with a score of 1-0). In the championship, the Serbian grandee scored ten points in four rounds. The Red-Whites are in the group of leaders, occupying the third line in the standings. To avoid the complete shame, Crvena Zvezda is obliged to qualify for the Europa League group.

CFR Cluj is an experienced European fighter, but it could not make it to the group round of the Champions League either. The team again failed to eliminate Young Boys (1-1 at home and 3-1 away). The same Swiss club did not allow the Romanian champion to qualify for the Europa League group in the previous season. So far, things are going well in the championship. CFR Cluj won five out of five rounds and is the sole leader. Of course, the Railwaymen expect to continue their European Cup season, but a lot depends on the upcoming match.
Both teams were aiming for the Champions League group stage, but only one of them will play in the Europa League group stage. We are waiting for a tough battle between two experienced clubs. Crvena Zvezda is the favorite of the home match, but the Serbian grandee is not very impressive in the current European competitions. A bet on Under 2.5 goals scored looks promising.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
