wow, we couldnt get better and harder team then city and this would be great to watch live in Belgrade. Also we got RB Leipzig and Young Boys Bern! we all know what Leipzig can do, we Bern we played few years ago! we could get even harder group, but also easier! hope that city will already have enough points and that they will not score lot of goals, but we will be ready for every team! can wait to watch it live! almost all groups are great and will be great to watch champions league this season!

I think it is not the hardest group, ofcourse it could be easier . Manchester City is very strong , I guess you will have to compete with the others for the next ticket for the next phase . I saw the groups. Can't say I like one more than the others . Unfortunately for the Greeks no greek team this year in the Champions League.

There are many balanced groups, I hope to see many quality games this year in the champions league. And I think Manchester will win in the duel with Red Star.

I used to watch Champions League every week when matches were available , I think the new season gonna start watching again . No greek to support , but still it's always fun to watch CHL . I don't understand this conference or whatever Europa League . Lol . Wtf is this . Champions league and then Europa League as second inferior league , that was good enough . Lol

Man city haven't started the premier League that great This year. Yeah they've won but it hasn't been too convincing (apart from their win yesterday) so you never know what could happen on the night. No Kevin De Bruyne for a few months so that's a positive for you. Just need to keep Haarland quiet, if that's possible haha. All the best though, I hope you do well.

Yeah I agree city is a very strong team, but hey you will play at home and this is relatively early phase of the season, where underdog teams have the most chances to provide a surprise, when playing against stronger teams. Maybe it would be a bit too optimistic to expect a win, but I think a draw is quite possible

I'm late to see this thread, but I watched the game and your team (Red Star) played a good game. It was pretty impressive that they were winning the first half. Obviously City is much more of a team. It is impossible to face such large teams economically. I don't know the value of the Red Star players, but the difference must be abysmal. Good luck in the group stage!

Less then 100 million euros and city is over 1 billion! We all knewt what kind of game it will be and they had so many shots, but goalkeeper saved us a lot and then he got that silly second goal! Next game is most important, home game with young boys! Thanks for wishes

For now, Crvena will receive one point after two matches for a draw at home with Young Boys 2-2 and after an away defeat against Manchester City 1-3, where they caused a lot of problems for the favorites when they were leading 1-0. Today's trip and match against RB Leipzig. I have Leipzig played on tape at the bookmaker. dule-vu, what do you think and what result do you see in today's match?
