Red Star Belgrade Preview – Can Red Star turn the tables?
Red Star Belgrade find themselves a goal down ahead of this 2nd leg in Belgrade after last week’s 1dt leg 3-2 loss in Israel to Maccabi Haifa but the hosts will still feel confident about their chances in this return leg as they’d previously recorded seven wins on the trot including winning five of these on home soil.
However, capturing just five wins in their last 14 Champions League ties overall suggests this could be another tough encounter for Red Star who need to score 2 unanswered goals against an in-form Maccabi Haifa outfit.
Maccabi Haifa Preview – Can Maccabi Haifa continue good form?
Maccabi Haifa have lost just one of their last five ties in the Champions League and they head into this return leg in the play-off round holding a 3-2 lead so the visitors know they needn’t take any unneccessary risks in this clash.
The Israeli visitors have previously posted wins against the likes of Olympiakos and Apollon to reach these play-offs and despite winning just one of their last nine away ties at this level, Maccabi Haifa look a different prospect now.
