What line-up will Crvena Zvezda play against Partizan? Vladan Milojević has several dilemmas, but there is every chance that he will send the same team that won the “roller” on Saturday.
Crvena zvezda made a much better impression than Partizan in the previous two derbies, but in the first one it was a lot of trouble to get a point (2:2), and then it was even more difficult to win in stoppage time (3:2). Although Vladan Milojević’s team created many chances, it was also clear that there are problems in the game that must be solved as soon as possible, primarily due to playing in UEFA competitions since the summer, and for which it may have been impossible to find a “cure” in only 96 hours.
Zvezda will probably leave the defensive shortcomings in the transition, primarily due to Gelor Kanga and Srđan Mijailović “for another time”, relying on what they can correct without personnel changes. It refers to the realization of the chances that Zvezda created, and there were a lot of them, so yes Milojević hopes that “we will not” will turn into “we will”.
The only headache before the match was the situation with Milan Rodić, who was replaced at halftime of the 173rd “eternal” derby, but according to the latest information, he should be ready for Wednesday (19.00) and the new duel with Partizan at the “Rajko Mitić” stadium. . Of course, there remains the possibility that he will be replaced again and that Zvezda will change their formation in the rest of the match because of this, but what we saw from Nasser Điga at left back was not particularly promising.
Milojević is also in trouble because of the players who are “knocking” on the door of the starting 11, such as Aleksandar Katai, the savior in the match with the black and whites, who should also start this match from the bench. After all, the same fate awaits Kraso, Olajinka, Šljivić, but not Kanga, on whom Zvezda’s offensive line depends too much.
That’s how it will be at the goal Omri Glazerwhile the backs will play in front of him Srđan Mijailović and Milan Rodići.e. at stopwatch places Aleksandar Dragović and Uroš Spajić. We will take another look at the position of the rear midfielder, where he will be more responsible for the further distribution of the ball Gelora Kanguwith the fact that he will still be delegated more for real defensive tasks Marko Stamenica young footballer whom Milojević especially praised after the derby on Saturday.
He will have a more offensive role again In-Bum Hwangwhile he will be on the wings once more Mirko Ivanić and Osman Bukari. The two will also be expected to drop into the middle and help the striker, which they will Sheriff of Endiaye – scorer of three goals in derbies this season. Although he duly missed, Zvezda cannot afford to play without him.
So, to summarize, this is the starting 11 of Red Star for the semi-final of the Serbian Cup against Partizan: Glazer – Mijailović, Dragović, Spajić, Rodić – Kanga, Stamenić, Hwang – Ivanić, Bukari and Endiaje.
