Red Star Belgrade vs FK Vojvodina Prediction: The home side will win

Red Star Belgrade will start their title defense when they face Vojvodina in the Stadion Rajko Mitić on Sunday. The visitors are coming off a disappointing outing in their last game. Previews, H2H, expert tips, and odds are provided below.

Red Star Belgrade had a remarkable season, securing their sixth consecutive league title with an impressive tally of 97 points. They dominated the league, going undefeated in all 37 matches, winning 30 games and drawing 7. They also added the league cup to their piece of silverware.

As they head into the new season, Red Star Belgrade are undoubtedly the team to beat in Serbian football, aiming to clinch their seventh consecutive league title. Their pre-season form has been outstanding, winning all seven of their friendly matches. This victory streak extends their unbeaten run to an impressive 29 games.

With such a formidable record, Red Star Belgrade continues to assert their dominance and remains a formidable force in Serbian football, making them a tough opponent for any team in the league.

Vojvodina's performance last season earned them a spot in the UEFA Europa Conference League qualification. They finished 5th in the league with 63 points, securing the last available spot for a chance to compete in the continental competition.

However, their hopes of advancing further in the Conference League qualifying rounds suffered a setback when they faced Cyprus APOEL and were defeated 2-1 in the first leg of the qualifiers.

During the preseason, Vojvodina had mixed results with 5 draws and 1 win. Now, facing a strong opponent like the defending champions and league cup winners, their chances of securing points in the upcoming match may be more hopeful than realistic. Nevertheless, they will undoubtedly give their best effort on the field.

Over the past few years, Red Star Belgrade and Vojvodina have faced each other 15 times in various competitions. Out of these encounters, Red Star Belgrade emerged victorious in 13 matches, while 2 games ended in draws. It showcases Red Star's dominance in their head-to-head clashes with Vojvodina.

The home side are currently enjoying a 29-game unbeaten run, and the visitors can do nothing to stop them. I expect the hosts to win right away after scoring multiple goals in the first half.
