It's early days in the Super Liga and both Čukarički and Rad Beograd are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
