Red Star Belgrade vs Midtjylland Prediction
Red Star Belgrade are slight favorites in the game but Midtjylland have what it takes to get the job done away from home.
The Danish side have been in good form and the fact that they need maximum points to keep their qualification hopes alive could give them an extra lift. Although one side could secure the win, we are predicting the points to be shared in a low-scoring draw.
Prediction: Red Star Belgrade 1-1 Midtjylland
