Red Star vs Kolubara Prediction: The reigning champion will win

The reigning Serbian champion Red Star will play in the second round of the new championship on home soil against Kolubara. Will the Red and White clinch another convincing win? We have a few bets to place at once.

Having won the league title last season, the team did it for the fifth time in a row. And such a solid achievement is not the limit. It is unlikely that anyone can stop the Red and White in the new season, including their main rival, Partizan.

In the first round match, Red Star met Radnicki with confidence (4:0). By the end of the first half, the Belgrade team ended the game with a score of 3:0.

A few years ago, Kolubara was in the third division of the Serbian league. In a short period, the club has taken a tremendous step in its development. This season is the second championship in a row for Kolubara in the top flight. In the past they finished 11th.

In the first round, Kolubara hosted Radnicki in 1923, and failed to gain a victory (1:1). Although they took the lead in 83 minutes, the goal was cancelled out because of offside.

The difference in class between Red Star and Kolubara is enormous. They'll surely get a convincing win over the underdogs. Both of the opponents' head-to-head games last season ended in spectacular wins for Belgrade. It is likely that the team's first game in the new championship will be similar.
