Čukarički look forward to challenge Crvena Zvezda in this Super Liga fixture. Everything you must know about the game is found right here!

Insights:
  • Čukarički have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Crvena Zvezda have won all their away games so far.

Crvena Zvezda could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Europa League game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at CFR Cluj. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.

Čukarički form and stats

Čukarički have collected seven points from their first three Super Liga games here at Stadion na Banovom brdu, a promising start.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Čukarički, as their goalkeeper Novak Micovic has completely shut out the opponents for 190 minutes in the Super Liga.

It's back home for Čukarički, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Radnicki Kragujevac away with the result 3-0. Ibrahima Mame Ndiaye and Milan Savić found the net in that victory.

Before that, Čukarički drew at home versus Radnicki Nis.

The Čukarički fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. Čukarički are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadion na Banovom brdu in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.

Crvena Zvezda form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Super Liga, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 17 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats from 19 matches. The fact that Crvena have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.

Crvena play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting CFR Cluj.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs Backa Topola.

It's early days yet, but Crvena Zvezda has scored 3 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Statistics for the prior ten meetings between these two contenders are: one win for Čukarički, zero draws and nine wins for Crvena Zvezda. Over 2,5 goals: eight times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
