Crvena zvezda to win - 31/20
Neither side can secure progression to the play-offs of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, so there’s only pride to play for at Stadion Wankdorf .
The hosts have given their fans nothing to smile about during their first seven matches and Giorgio Contini’s team will want to end their campaign in style.
Young Boys have failed to win any of their last three competitive matches, and they have failed to trouble the scoresheet in any of those games.
They were beaten 1-0 by Celtic in the UEFA Champions League last week, and while they produced a spirited display, they will have been disappointed to fall short at Celtic Park.
Crvena zvezda’s sole win in the competition came against Stuttgart at home, as they won 5-1 in November.
While they have been beaten in their other six games, they have scored goals on a regular basis.
Vladan Milojevic’s team have scored against Bodo/Glimt, Benfica, Monaco, Barcelona, AC Milan and PSV Eindhoven.
While they have lost their last eight away games in the competition, their record in front of goal suggests they will have enough firepower to beat their struggling hosts.
Both teams to score - 1/2
Young Boys are bottom of the standings but they will be determined to improve their position on Wednesday night.
Contini’s team will be doing all they can to score a few goals to improve their goal difference, and while their recent form is poor, they have netted against Stuttgart, Atalanta, Shakhtar Donetsk and Galatasaray this season in the UEFA Champions League.
Crvena zvezda have only played in one competitive match since Christmas, so tiredness could come into play and while they should have too much quality across the 90 minutes, their away record in the competition suggests they will be vulnerable at the back.
Nemanja Radonjic to score at any time - 9/4
Striker Nemanja Radonjic has scored a quarter of Crvena zvezda’s goals this season in the UEFA Champions League and he should be the man to watch in midweek.
The 28-year-old Serbian has only scored once in the Serbian SuperLiga in 10 appearances, but he seems to have relished the occasion in Europe.
He is one of their main focal points in attack and has registered six shots in his last three outings in Europe.
Young Boys have already shown they are vulnerable at the back and Radonjic should be able to end the league phase with at least one goal to his name.
