Crvena Zvezda vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva Preview

Crvena Zvezda return to the Stadion Rajko Mitić trailing 1-0 on aggregate, but their recent attacking output offers genuine cause for optimism. The Serbian giants have plundered 17 goals across their last five matches, a staggering average of 3.4 per game. Coach Dejan Stanković may rotate his squad, as he has done in previous qualifying second legs, yet the fortress-like atmosphere in Belgrade should fuel an aggressive, front-foot approach from the hosts.

Hapoel Be'er Sheva carry a slender first-leg advantage earned at a neutral venue in Hungary, though defensive vulnerabilities remain a serious concern. The Israeli side conceded 10 goals in their five matches leading into the first leg, a record that hardly inspires confidence on hostile territory. Compounding their troubles, key midfielder Kings Kangwa departed for Panathinaikos before this tie, leaving a creative void that could prove costly in a high-pressure second leg.

Crvena Zvezda's home record makes the 1.31 selection a natural starting point. Seventeen goals across their last five matches translates to a prolific attack that should overwhelm a Hapoel Be'er Sheva side missing influential midfielder Kings Kangwa, who departed for Panathinaikos before this tie. The Israeli outfit conceded ten goals in their five fixtures prior to the first leg, a defensive fragility that Zvezda will exploit under the lights in Belgrade.

Over 2.5 goals at 1.44 is the logical secondary pick. Zvezda averaged 3.4 goals per game across their recent run, and Hapoel's leaky backline suggests this second leg will not be a cagey affair. Coach Dejan Stanković has rotated in previous qualifying rounds, but with a deficit to overturn, expect a full-strength lineup geared towards sustained pressure from the opening whistle.

Both teams to score at 1.74 also warrants attention. Hapoel carry a slender aggregate lead and will look to counter rather than sit deep for ninety minutes, creating space for at least one away goal. Zvezda, however, possess the firepower and the home advantage to comfortably outscore their opponents over the course of the match. The combination of these three selections reflects a high-scoring home victory scenario.

Trends to Know about Crvena Zvezda vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva

• Zvezda averaging 3.4 goals per match
• Hapoel conceded 10 in five matches
• Kangwa departure weakens Hapoel midfield

A compact 4-2-3-1 vs 4-3-3 contest shapes up in Belgrade, with Crvena Zvezda's double pivot of Krunic and Abu Fani tasked with screening the backline and controlling the tempo against a Hapoel midfield trio that will look to press high and disrupt the hosts' build-up play.

Hapoel arrive with an adjusted XI following a suspension, which introduces a small degree of uncertainty around their defensive shape. Bruno Duarte leads the Red Star attack, and how the Israeli side's reorganised back four handles his movement could prove the decisive tactical thread of this qualifying tie.
