Former Inter Milan midfielder Dejan Stankovic will once again take charge of Red Star Belgrade; this will be his second stint in the role, and he will lead the team in his first official match on Thursday when they face Malmö in Sweden in the Europa League.

Stankovic inherits a favorable position in the Europa League; the dominant Serbian team currently sits in 17th place with a real chance of reaching the top eight if they win their remaining two matches. With a goal from Ivanic, Red Star defeated Austrian side Sturm Graz in their last European match. This victory marked the third consecutive time Red Star has won 1-0 in Europe, having previously beaten FSCB Bucharest and Lille, their two previous victims.

The Serbian Super League has not yet resumed after the winter break, with Red Star Belgrade currently in second place (rather than first, behind Partizan Belgrade). As a result, the team played four friendly matches in January, a similar situation to that of Malmö in the Swedish Allsvenskan, though they only played one friendly, which they won against Sparta Prague.

Our Malmo vs Red Star Belgrade Prediction

Losses against Panathinaikos, Nottingham Forest, and Porto appear to have effectively ended any chance Malmö had of progressing to the group stage. Therefore, like Red Star Belgrade, Malmö will also be debuting a new manager.

Miguel Ángel Ramírez takes the helm of the Swedish sleeping giant, which is looking to bounce back from an embarrassing fifth-place finish in the Swedish Allsvenskan in 2025.

Our prediction for Malmo vs Red Star is: Red Star to win.

Prediction:

 

Red Star Belgrade win the match
