Red Star Belgrade seem to be back in form after winning all 5 of their friendlies during the mid-season break, following a 2-1 loss to Partizan before the break. They are also out of European competitions after finishing bottom of their group with only 1 point. Their focus will now shift to fighting for the league title, which appears to be challenging this season, as they currently sit second on the table with 46 points from 19 games, scoring 47 goals and conceding 18. Jean-Philippe Krasso will miss this clash due to international duty with Ivory Coast at the AFCON.

Voždovac enter this clash well-rested, having not participated in any friendlies during the short break. They are unbeaten in their last 5 games, with 4 wins and 1 draw. They came from behind to secure a 3-2 win over Vojvodina in their last game, but they have failed to win any of their last 3 away games. They currently sit 6th on the table with 28 points in 19 games, scoring 28 goals and conceding 26. Borisav Burmaz will be a player to watch in this clash, as the 22-year-old forward has scored in each of his last 3 games and has a total of 10 goals this season.

Both sides have met 14 times in their recorded history, with Red Star winning 13 times and 1 game ending in a 2-2 draw. Red Star have won the last 10 games between the two sides.

Red Star Belgrade seems to have gotten back to their form after experiencing a slow start to the season. They have set their sights on getting back to the top of the table, and I expect them to win this clash right from the first 45 minutes and also keep a clean sheet.
