Crvena Zvezda vs Copenhagen Prediction 22 October 2026

The home side are priced at 1.65 to win and will look to use their strong domestic form and home advantage to secure three points. Copenhagen arrive after an encouraging European victory, but their recent results across all competitions have been inconsistent.

Crvena Zvezda have won four of their last five matches, demonstrating impressive attacking productivity. They most recently defeated Mladost Lucani 5-1 and previously beat Radnicki 1923 3-0, Radnicki Nis 3-0 and Zeleznicar Pancevo 2-1. Their only defeat in this sequence came away to Lugano, where they lost 2-3 in the Conference League. Crvena Zvezda have scored 15 goals in these five matches, highlighting their ability to create chances and put opponents under sustained pressure. Although the European loss exposed some defensive vulnerabilities, their overall results remain strong.

Copenhagen have recorded two wins, one draw and two defeats in their last five games. Their most convincing performance was a 3-0 home victory over Braga in the Conference League. They also beat Brondby 1-0 away, but their other results were less positive: Copenhagen drew 1-1 with Aarhus and lost 1-2 to Midtjylland and 0-2 to Hamburg. Their recent scoring output has been less consistent than Crvena Zvezda's, and the two defeats before the Braga match raised questions about their ability to maintain results against difficult opposition.

Crvena Zvezda's attacking form gives them a clear platform to build on, particularly at the Rajko Mitic Stadium, where they can apply pressure from the opening stages. Copenhagen have shown they can produce disciplined performances, as demonstrated by their clean sheet against Braga, but their inconsistent domestic results could make this a challenging away fixture. The hosts' stronger recent record and greater scoring consistency are important factors in the matchup.

Copenhagen's European win means they should not be underestimated, yet Crvena Zvezda have delivered more consistent performances over their last five matches. With home advantage and a potent attack, the Serbian side are the preferred option at 1.65.
