LLWWD

Železničar Pančevo are heading into this match after a series of unfavorable results, having failed to win their last two games. They suffered a 1-0 loss to Novi Pazar and most recently played a 2-2 draw against Vojvodina. Their recent form has seen them secure only two victories in their last 13 games.

Currently, Železničar Pančevo occupy the 14th position on the table, having accumulated 11 points in 13 games. They have scored 14 goals but have conceded 24. Their position is precarious as they are just two points ahead of the bottom-placed team, Radnik.

Red Star Belgrade encountered a challenging defeat in their recent UEFA Champions League match, where they were outplayed 2-1 by RB Leipzig. This result has left them with only 1 point in their first four games in Group G of the competition. While their Champions League campaign has been a struggle, they had a more successful outing in their domestic league.

In their most recent league fixture, Red Star Belgrade managed to secure a 3-1 victory over Radnik. This win allowed them to maintain their second position in the league, having accumulated 31 points from 13 games. They have displayed an impressive offensive record, scoring 34 goals, which is the highest in the league. Additionally, their defense has been solid, as they've conceded one of the fewest goals in the league.

Red Star Belgrade currently sit 6 points behind the league leaders, Partizan, and hold a 5-point advantage over the third-placed team, TSC. Despite their Champions League struggles, they continue to perform well in their domestic competition.

Red Star Belgrade are currently looking for all means to get things right to challenge top place Partizan, and I don’t think this struggling host has anything to stop them.
