FK Crvena zvezda vs Hoffenheim Prediction & Betting tips
The workload that the professional teams have to complete these days and weeks is extremely tough. It’s a welcome opportunity when you don’t have the pressure of having to score or win in a game. Hoffenheim moved into the next round early in the Europa League and can tackle the game on Thursday at Roter Stern Belgrade in a relaxed manner.
This basically also applies to Crvena Zvezda. The Serbs can theoretically and mathematically still be intercepted, but the probability that this will happen tends towards zero. In the table of this group, the Kraichgauer are at the top with a flawless record of twelve points from four games. Red star follows directly behind with nine counters.
Slovan Liberec with three points and the Belgians from Ghent, who are still without a point, are already beaten. If we will, on Thursday it’s all about winning the group. We assume that TSG in particular no longer take this encounter very seriously, and that’s why we tend to predict a home win in the duel Red Star Belgrade against Hoffenheim.
The best bookmakers don’t want to position themselves so clearly with their listings. The odds on a home win are only slightly higher than the offers on an away win. The Serbs are currently in a good mood and will be more eager to continue their good run than the Kraichgauer want to necessarily win. That’s why our first consideration is a tip on a home win between Red Star Belgrade and Hoffenheim.
Red Star Belgrade:
For Red Star Belgrade it is only a matter of form to move into the next round of the Europa League. The Serbian champions are still missing a maximum of one point and this should, if possible, be earned on this match day. Overall, Dejan Stankovic’s team is in a very good phase at the moment and is rushing from victory to victory.
Crvena Zvezda has eight wins from the last eight competitive games. In the table of the Serbian league, Dejan Stankovic’s team are nine points ahead of local rivals Partizan. It couldn’t go much better at the moment and therefore it makes sense to check the odds for a home win in the duel between Red Star Belgrade and Hoffenheim.
Last weekend, Crvena Zvezda continued to be very confident. In the small derby there was a clear 3-0 win in the Marakana against Rad Belgrade. After one hour at the latest, the mass was read after Milan Pavkov, Richmond Boakye and Srdjan Spiridonovic had scored their goals. But more resistance is expected from Hoffenheim than from the relegation candidate of the Serbian league.
There may be one or the other change for the Serbs on Thursday. Milan Rodic has already failed once because the defender is in isolation after a positive test. Aleksandar Katai also has health problems and will apparently not be an option in the Europa League either.
Hoffenheim:
The Europa League obviously does not have the level that prevails in the Bundesliga. There is hardly any other explanation for the fact that TSG Hoffenheim wins international victories on the assembly line, but threatens to lose touch in the German House of Lords because hardly anything succeeds there. After all, 1899 is already through the international group stage and can now concentrate fully on the league.
Sebastian Hoeneß may also be out to keep his clean slate in the European Cup. Four wins in four games in the Europa League are an impressive result. The priorities are now on the national tasks until the winter break and that’s why we tend to give a prediction of a home win in the match between Red Star Belgrade and Hoffenheim.
Last weekend TSG did not perform well again. At the guest appearance in Mainz, it was just enough to draw a 1-1 draw. It was the seventh game in the Bundesliga without a win. After all, Hoffenheim managed to equalize after falling behind with a goal from Ihlas Bebou. Dennis Geiger was sent off, but this has no effect on the Europa League.
Overall, we expect some changes. It is hard to imagine that Sebastian Hoeneß will send his best team into the race. We are counting on the freshest team, i.e. a few players who recently took a break. Ermin Bicakcic, Benjamin Hübner, Sargis Adamyan and Konstantinos Stafylidis are certainly not there.
