Red Star Belgrade will not be the favorite to defeat French side Lille in the Europa League round of 32. However, the current Serbian Super League leaders, under Dejan Stankovic, haven't lost a competitive match in 2026, recovering from a slow start in Europe and remaining unbeaten in their last five matches in the competition.
Lille, on the other hand, hasn't won in Ligue 1 since matchday 16, on December 12th of last year. Nevertheless, they have reason to believe they can show a different side in Europe. This is particularly evident given their recent 1-0 victory over Freiburg, secured by a penalty from Giroud in the 92nd minute to conclude the league campaign. Ajax defeated Les Dogues in their last two-leg Europa League tie, which took place in 2021. There is also a precedent for Lille hosting a Serbian team; it happened in 2010 when they beat Sloboda Užice 2–0.

Our Lille vs Red Star Belgrade Prediction
The history of Red Star Belgrade in European knockout rounds is full of setbacks; in fact, they've only won two of their last 20 such matches. However, the team is undefeated since Dejan Stankovic took over as manager, and they have rarely entered a knockout tie with such positive momentum.
Red Star Belgrade has already proven its ability to defeat Lille on Serbian soil and is in a favorable position to capitalize on the extensive list of absences in the Ligue 1 side in France.
Our prediction for Lille vs Red Star Belgrade is: Red Star Belgrade wins or draws.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
