Benfica faces Red Star Belgrade in challenging conditions, as the Serbian club seeks to revive its historic success in European football amidst modern struggles.
Despite a glorious history in the European Cup, Red Star has not reached the knockout stages since the Champions League rebranding, emphasizing their modern challenges.
Benfica, more entrenched in European competitions, last won a title in the 1960s, reflecting the gap between traditional European giants and current contenders.
With key players sidelined, Red Star leans on Bruno Duarte and Mirko Ivanic to overcome Benfica's challenge, highlighting unpredictability in group stage matches.
