FC Barcelona travels to Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League for the fourth day of the league. Discover the latest information on probable lineups and our predictions.
Red Star Belgrade appears to be one of the weakest teams in the Champions League. The Serbian club has already conceded 11 goals in three European matches in this phase of Ligue 1.
FC Barcelona was beaten from the start by AS Monaco then bounced back perfectly. The Blaugrana beat Young Boys Bern and crushed Bayern Munich. The Blaugrana appear at the top of their game supported by a brilliant trio.
Information on Red Star Belgrade and its injured
Vanja Drkusic, Peter Olayinka and Adem Avdic are injured.
Starting XI: Ilic – Young-Woo, Djiga, Spajic, Rodic – Krunic, Kanga, Maksimovic – Katompa Mvumpa, Ndiaye, Milson
Information on Barça and its injured
Eric Garcia, Marc-André ter Stegen, Ferran Torres, Marc Bernal, Andreas Christensen and Ronald Araujo are injured.
Starting XI: Pena – Koundé, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde – De Jong, Pedri, Olmo – Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha
We think that Barça will win for sure but not by a winning score. The long trip to Serbia and the late schedule could play tricks on the Blaugrana. A score of 2-0 seems appropriate to us.
Dani Olmo appears to be Hansi Flick’s essential asset to destabilize such a low block. The Spanish international will have the positioning and dribbling quality to bring into the Serbian area.
Given the appearance of the match and Barça’s territorial control, let’s prepare ourselves for a possession record. The Barcelonans could achieve 85% to 90% ball domination in this meeting. Almost unheard of in the Champions League.
