Crvena Zvezda’s season can be split into two distinct categories: their domestic form and their European performances.
Crvena, also known as Red Star, are currently leading Serbia’s domestic league with four points in 14 games, and still have two matches in hand. They were unable to play against Jedinstvo last weekend due to snowfall in Serbia. Crvena Zvezda are also the only team to remain undefeated at this stage of the season, showcasing their domestic dominance.
In the Champions League, Crvena Zvezda have been unable to replicate their results at home. They lost to Benfica at home (2-1) in their first match, before a 4-0 defeat to Inter at San Siro. AS Monaco defeated the Serbs 5-1, and they also suffered a 2-5 loss to Barcelona in Belgrade. The Serbs have lost all of their encounters in the Champions League so far.
They will now host VfB Stuttgart in what could be a make-or-break game for their European hopes. Peter Olayinka and Omri Glazer are sidelined due to injury. Mirko Ivanić, Ognjen Mimović, Bruno Duarte and Nemanja Radonjić are all awaiting medical clearance.
Unlike Crvena Zvezda, Stuttgart’s season comes with mixed signs. They are currently 9th in the Bundesliga, registering 16 points in eleven games. They have scored 21 goals but also conceded 19. Their 2-0 victory against Bochum is their first victory in four games.
The Swabians finished second last season, but several key exits, including Guirassy’s departure, forced head coach Hoeneß to adapt.
In the Champions League, they have struggled, suffering a 3-1 loss to Real Madrid, followed by a 1-1 draw against Sparta Praha. However, Stuttgart caused an upset with a 1-0 win over Juventus. In their last European match, Stuttgart suffered a 0-2 defeat at home against Atalanta.
Stuttgart have difficulty finding the back of the net in the Champions League and have also found it difficult to keep clean sheets in the Bundesliga.
Deniz Undav, Jamie Leweling, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Luca Raimund, El Bilal Touré, and Ameen Al-Dakhil are all sidelined due to injury.
Bet hereCrvena Zvezda are still looking for their first win, but Stuttgart’s poor European record gives the Serbs a good chance to win at home. The Swabians struggle to score in the Champions League, considering the Bundesliga their higher priority.
Crvena Zvezda’s stadium is renowned for its intense atmosphere, which has even prompted intervention from German police between the ultras of both clubs.
Crvena Zvezda showed against Barcelona (2-5) that they can fight back, but they still lack consistency. Stuttgart’s fanbase also includes many supporters of former Yugoslav descent, promising an exciting clash between the two fanbases.
Although VfB Stuttgart are favored by the betting odds, many expect this match to end with goals from both teams.
VfB Stuttgart’s attack does wonders in the Bundesliga, although the injury of Deniz Undav has hampered the team’s capacities up front.
In the Champions League, Stuttgart haven’t been as adventurous, which can be explained by the fact that it’s the team’s first time in the Champions League in eleven years.
Visiting stadiums like the Bernabeu has been mind-blowing for many players, and the atmosphere gets to many of them. As Beograd is known for its intense atmosphere, likely they will eventually crack.
However, Red Star haven’t won a single time either, although they rarely finish a game without scoring. All things considered, both teams will likely score.
