Our prediction for Crvena Zvezda vs Lech
The Serbian team currently faces no competition on the domestic front. Last season, they won 28 out of 30 matches. In the new campaign, the favorite started with major victories at home and easily handled Lincoln Red Imps in the previous qualification round: 1–0 away in Gibraltar and 5–1 at home.
The Polish side reclaimed the top spot in the Ekstraklasa last spring after a three-year gap, securing their ninth title. However, after the summer break, they began with defeats — to Legia in the Super Cup and at home to Cracovia in the league. Nevertheless, they then started winning domestically and finished 7–1 at home over Breidablik (though the score was level until the visitors received a red card in the 32nd minute). After that, they also won in Iceland, but only 1–0.
In the first leg, the Poles conceded early but, with incredible fan support, managed to equalize. However, the experienced visitors from Belgrade scored twice more.
