Red Star Belgrade v Benfica : Champions League match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 19th Sep, 17:45 BST, Rajko Mitic Stadium, Belgrade

the Rajko Mitic Stadium masses welcome Benfica's supporters on Thursday evening, as Vladan Milojević's Red Star Belgrade take on Roger Schmidt's team in the Champions League. The predictions for all the markets are calculated using the past 20 games for each team (home, away and overall) with extra weighting applied to top teams. All the statistics and graphics are tailored for the selected market. Head-to-head stats for this fixture are also given where our data allows. Odds are provided straight from from leading bookmakers.

Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Red Star Bel. and Benfica will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Vladan Milojević or Roger Schmidt has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.22 equating to about a 80% probability.
