Red Star Belgrade vs RB Leipzig Prediction
The Bundesliga side currently sit second in Group G of the Champions League, after beating Young Boys and their opponents for Tuesday evening, Red Star Belgrade.
However, their recent form domestically has given cause for concern as Leipzig have lost their last two matches in all compeititons. A 1-0 defeat to Wolfsburg in the DFB Pokal was followed up by a 2-0 defeat to Mainz in the Bundesliga at the weekend.
Belgrade currently sit second in the Serbian division and are unbeaten in their last three league fixtures, beating Radnik on Saturday.
Their form in Europe is far worse, picking up one point from the opening three games and the Serbian side suffered a 3-1 defeat to Leipzig last time out.
With that in mind, we expect the German side to have too much firepower once again and should come out as narrow victors in Serbia.
