RB Leipzig vs Crvena Zvezda: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time ...
How to watch the UEFA Champions League match between Leipzig and Crvena Zvezda, as well as kick-off time and team news.
RB Leipzig will look to return to winning ways in Group G when they host Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Leipzig have been in erratic form in recent weeks and that inconsistency has reflected in their Champions League campaign so far. They started brightly enough, clinching a 3-1 victory over Young Boys, but then fell to the same scoreline against Manchester City last time out. While a defeat to the reigning Champions League holders is not a disaster, RB Leipzig’s overall recent form is worrisome.
Marco Rose’s men are winless in their last three games, but they head into Tuesday’s clash with a confidence-boosting 3-1 victory over Darmstadt in Bundesliga last Saturday. The hosts will be relying on their superior offensive quality and should have the upper hand over the Serbian SuperLiga champions, who are still winless in the competition (W1, D1).
