Red Star Belgrade vs Manchester City: Champions League 2023/24 Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups
Defending Champions League champions Manchester City journey to Serbia to take on Red Star Belgrade at the Rajko Mitic Stadium in their last Group G match on Wednesday. This encounter marks their first meeting since Manchester City staged a comeback from a halftime deficit to defeat Red Star 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium in September during matchday one.
Red Star Belgrade concludes their 2023-24 European campaign against Manchester City, destined to finish at the bottom of Group G after losing four and drawing one of their Champions League matches. A recent 2-0 defeat to Young Boys dashed their hopes of securing third place and dropping to the Europa League. Despite a nine-game away losing streak in the Champions League, Red Star boasts an impressive domestic record, winning their last three matches, including a 3-1 victory over Mladost Lucani. In their final Champions League clash, they aim to avoid consecutive home defeats, a feat not experienced since November 2019.
Reigning champions Manchester City ended a run of three draws and one defeat with a crucial 2-1 comeback victory against Luton Town. Trailing at halftime, goals from Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish secured a hard-fought win. Positioned fourth in the Premier League, City faces a busy 17-day stretch with a midweek clash against Red Star and a weekend encounter with Crystal Palace, followed by two Club World Cup fixtures. Despite playing for pride in the Champions League, a win could make City the second English club, after Liverpool in 2021-22, to achieve six group-stage victories in a single season.
