An important away game in Serbia awaits PSV tonight, against Red Star Belgrade. The team, led again by Vladan Milojević since 2023, is unapproachable in their own league, but did not achieve the desired results in the UEFA Champions League. The Serbs' coach likes to use the same names, below you will find an overview of his selection.
Omri Glazer normally defends the goal of Red Star Belgrade. However, it seemed for a long time that he would have to miss the game with PSV. If the latest sounds from Serbian media are to be believed, it seems that he is fit in time after all. In the last matches Ivan Gutesa replaced the injured goalkeeper.
Defense
In the defense we see an old Eredivisie acquaintance: Uros Spajic, leased by Feyenoord in the 2021-2022 season, is the Serbs' captain. He too was injured at the end of the previous calendar year, but is now training again. Trainer Vladan Milojevic usually goes for security with a four-man defense. Ognjen Mimovic, Nasser Djiga and Young-Woo Seol are expected to join Spajic in defense.
Midfield
In midfield, the 54-year-old coach often opts for a block with two controllers, although a five-man midfield has also operated this season. In any case, Rade Krunic and Timi Elsnik always play, with former VfB Stuttgart player Silas in front of them - who is also sometimes posted as an outfielder. Seventeen-year-old Andrija Maksimovic can also play in the ten position, but so far the talent has mainly had to make do with substitutions.
Striker
Cherif Ndiaye remains the constant center of attack at Red Star - a role that never changes. The 1.90-meter striker from Dakar, Senegal, is still waiting for his first goal in the UEFA Champions League, but in the Serbian SuperLiga, the 28-year-old is once again excelling. With 13 goals in 16 games, the physically strong and headstrong Ndiaye convincingly leads the top scorer list. Mirko Ivanic, Felício Milson and Nemanja Radonic are options on the flanks.
