Tomorrow, from 6:30 p.m., the players of Crvena zvezda will play host to their eternal rival, and it will be the 170th time that we meet in championship matches.
MUTUAL MEETINGS
Crvena zvezda has 67 wins, 55 draws and 47 losses, and the goal difference is 234:199. If we add the cup games to the balance sheet, we are better again and quite a bit. In 263 matches, Zvezda has 114 wins, 68 draws and 81 losses with a goal difference of 397:338. We achieved the most convincing victory in history on November 17, 1968, it was the 43rd eternal derby, and we won 6:1. Ostojić (three times), Pavlović, Antonijević and Džajić scored.
The last eternal derby was played on March 3, and the result was 1:0 in favor of our team. The scorer and player of the match was newcomer Alex Vigo, who presented himself to the stars in the best possible way.
BE WITH THE STAR
Given that the match will be played in front of empty stands, we invite you to watch the duel on the Zvezda TV program, through our studio, which traditionally starts an hour before the game, as well as on the Arena 1 Premium channel from 6:30 p.m.
There is also Zvezda's application, more precisely the Match Center, which informs you minute by minute about the happenings on the field, as well as on our club's Twitter account.
TEAM FORM
Crvena zvezda is the champion of Serbia! In the previous round, with a 4:1 triumph over TSC, we won the title six rounds before the end of the season. Now we have 85 points, with a balance of 27 wins and four draws, and a goal difference of 85:15.
When it comes to the eternal rival, they share the fourth position with Vojvodina and have 57 points won. In the current season, they recorded 17 wins, six draws and eight losses, for a goal difference of 57:29.
And while Zvezda has four triumphs and a draw in the previous five games, the eternal rival achieved only one victory and experienced four defeats.
OPPOSING PLAYERS
The net of the eternal rival will probably be guarded by Stevanović, although there was a lot of rotation at the goalkeeper position, so it would not be a surprise if it was Popović. In the last line, Filipović or possibly Živković, then Vujacić, Marković and Urošević are expected. The midfield is intended for the trio of Belić, Natho, Pantić, although Fejs could also play. Dibayate, Menig and Ricardo will act in the attack. First of all, Pavlović will wait for a chance from the bench, followed by young Jović and Baždar.
