Match Time & Date:

20:00
Prediction: 2-1
Celtic
Stadion Rajko Mitic will be packed when Crvena Zvezda and Celtic go head to head in a highly-anticipated Europa League game. Vladan Milojevic’s men were more than unfortunate not to eliminate Paphos in the Champions League playoffs, but they are surely capable of playing an important role in the Europa League group stages. As Crvena Zvezda produced a fine display in “The Eternal derby” at the weekend, beating Partizan 2-1, home win should be considered.
Both Nemanja Radonjic and Bruno Duarte are pushing for recalls, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team. Austria ace Marko Arnautovic is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts after finding his form in recent outings. The Hoops, on the other hand, produced an under-par performance in the Champions League tie with Kairat and given their difficulties on the travels, home win should be considered.
Highlighted Player (Rade Krunic):
Rade Krunic is a product of Sutjeska Foca youth football school. The Bosnia international was born in Foca on October 7, 1993 and 19 years later he made his senior debut with his hometown club Sutjeska.
After scoring three goals in 15 appearances for the Bosnian club, the Bosnian midfielder moved to Serbian side Donji Srem in 2013. In 2014 he signed a contract with Italian side Hellas Verona, but he was immediately loaned back to Donji Srem. In 2015 Rade Krunic made 13 appearances for Serbian side Borac Cacak before joining yet another Italian team Empoli.
He has been playing for the Azzurri ever since and it has to be noted that he scored his first goal for the Serie A side in a 2-0 win over Genoa in October, 2015. Speaking of his international career, Krunic made his Bosnia and Herzegovina debut in a friendly against Denmark on June 3, 2016. He has 8 caps for Bosnia and Herzegovina U21 team as well.
Highlighted Team (Celtic):
The Celtic Football Club boasts a proud over 100-year long history which has made The Bhoys a global brand thanks to their unprecedented social awareness that dates to the very beginnings of this Scottish club. Celtic was founded in 1887 with the purpose of alleviating poverty in the immigrant Irish population in the East End of Glasgow by raising money to help their fellow citizens.
The charity legacy continues to this day with Celtic still preserving their charitable traditions through the Celtic FC Foundation. The Celts play their home matches at Celtic Park in front of 60,000 people. One of the two most successful football clubs in Scotland with 47 Scottish League Championship titles to their name, Celtic have a long-standing fierce rivalry with Rangers, with the clubs known as the Old Firm.
European Cup winners from season 1966-67 and runners-up two years later, Celtic have been regular in European competitions since their first appearance in 1962-63. Their other most standout results have been runners-up in the EUFA Cup in 2003 and Intercontinental Cup in 1967.
