Lech Poznan vs Crvena Zvezda Predictions
Lech’s scoring momentum and home record set the tone
Lech Poznan returned to European competition with style, demolishing Breidablik 8-1 on aggregate in the previous round. Their attacking rhythm has carried over into domestic form, with 27 goals scored across their opening six matches of the season. That’s an average of 4.5 goals per game — a clear sign of fluidity in the final third and a growing confidence within the squad.
The Polish side have also been strong at home in Europe, winning eight of their last ten continental fixtures at Stadion Poznan. Four straight victories in all competitions highlight their current momentum, and their forward line appears well-drilled and incisive. While facing a step up in opposition here, Lech’s scoring form and structural balance suggest they are capable of taking a first-leg lead — especially if they control the tempo in midfield and exploit the visitors’ defensive gaps.
Tip: Lech Poznan 2-1 ( at Livesport24)
Crvena Zvezda’s open shape could be tested away from home
Crvena Zvezda arrive in Poznan having cruised through their recent matches, beating Radnicki 5-1 and Mladost 7-1. They’ve had the added benefit of a postponed league match ahead of this tie — a sign of the club’s clear prioritisation of European qualification. However, those results came against much weaker opposition, and questions remain over Zvezda’s resilience away from home in Europe.
Last season, the Serbian champions lost four of their five European away games — with defensive issues particularly evident when pressed high or caught in transitions. That said, they still managed to score in all but one of those trips, highlighting their attacking potential even when under pressure. The pattern suggests an open contest is likely once again, especially given Lech’s aggressive attacking setup and willingness to play at pace.
With BTTS landing in 10 of Zvezda’s last 13 European away games, and considering the hosts’ current scoring form, both sides finding the net feels like a well-supported selection — particularly at odds close to evens.
