FK Crvena Zvezda's home advantage at Stadion Rajko Mit and their recent form, with high goal scoring and solid defense, give them a slight edge over Lille. Lille's away record shows vulnerability, especially in conceding late goals. Injuries in Lille's squad could tip the balance in favor of FK Crvena Zvezda, who have been more consistent in recent fixtures.
FK Crvena Zvezda's squad remains relatively stable, with key players like A. Katai and V. Lučić expected to feature. Lille’s squad is affected by injuries, notably missing some defensive options, which could impact their stability. Both teams are motivated to secure progression in the Europa League but face injury-related uncertainties.
Given FK Crvena Zvezda's strong recent form and Lille's injury issues, expect a competitive match where FK Crvena Zvezda aims to assert dominance early. If FK Crvena Zvezda scores first, they will likely control possession, pressing Lille into a defensive setup. A draw at half-time could set the stage for a more open second half, but FK Crvena Zvezda's recent away resilience suggests they may secure a late goal for a win. Lille, needing a positive result, may push forward late, risking space at the back.
Expect FK Crvena Zvezda to adopt an aggressive pressing style, leveraging their energetic midfield to disrupt Lille's build-up. Lille might focus on set pieces and quick counterattacks, but FK Crvena Zvezda's disciplined defense will limit Lille's chances. Betting on FK Crvena Zvezda to win or draw combined with under 3.5 goals aligns with their strong defensive record and Lille's struggles to score away.
