Crvena zvezda will start 2020/21 Champions League qualifications with a home match against Europa FC of Gibraltar. Only one leg is to be played, so winners will be decided on the night of 18th or 19th August.
Europa FC were dominant in the Gibraltar National League, finishing the 2019/20 season undefeated ahead of St.Joseph's FC and Lincoln Red Imps. They were lethal in attack as they scored an impressive 58 goals in 11 matches of the Championship Group.
Our opponents have started the competition in the Preliminary round where they beat UE Sant Julià of Andorra over two legs.
Head Coach Dejan Stanković urged his players no to underestimate the Gibraltar side.
“It will be decided over 90 minutes, so you have to be concentrated and prepared. Crvena zvezda as a club always respects every opponent and we will show all the respect to Europa FC. They are champions of their county, so they know how to win. We will make sure we’re ready for the game when it comes. We want to do well in Europe.”
