Prediction published on 02/10/2023, 16:58  by Kennedy Kechula in Champions League Predictions

Red Star Belgrade will be at home on Wednesday against Young Boys in round two of the Champions League. Both teams lost their respective Match Day 1 games in Group G leaving Red Star in third and Young Boys fourth in the group. Red Star Belgrade arrive for this match off the back of a morale-boosting victory. Barak Bakhar’s men ended a two-match losing run on Saturday with a 1-0 victory at home against Radnicki Nis. The match was also their first outing since losing 3-1 away to Manchester City in their group opener 11 days prior. The Serbian champions have struggled with their form recently and have lost three of their last five games.

Young Boys have also suffered with inconsistency in recent fixtures. They have lost twice in their last five matches with one of those defeats coming in this competition. Raphael Wicky’s men were defeated 3-1 at home by RB Leipzig on matchday one. But having secured a pivotal 1-0 success away to Swiss rivals Grasshoppers on Saturday, the visitors will be confident of their chances here. Young Boys have avoided defeat in four of their last five Champions League matches. Two of those matches were away fixtures. Wednesday’s match will be the fifth meeting between these two teams in the Champions League. Three of the previous four have ended in a share of the spoils.
