ČUKARIČKI THE BIGGEST OBSTACLE: The Black-Whites Must Cheer for Zvezda
Vojvodina, with their win in Surdulica, is again just one point behind the black-and-whites, and it appears the battle for second place will go down to the final match. Partizan has everything in their own hands and can no longer afford a slip-up. With three rounds left in the season, Srđan Blagojević's squad will not be leaving the Serbian capital.
TL;DR
- Partizan is one point ahead of Vojvodina in the race for second place with three games left.
- Partizan's remaining fixtures are against OFK Beograd (home), Čukarički (away), and Radnik (home).
- Čukarički is identified as Partizan's toughest remaining opponent, especially playing away.
- Vojvodina has two home games and one away game left.
- If Vojvodina wins the Serbian Cup final against Crvena zvezda, they will qualify for the Europa League, which could indirectly benefit Partizan by making second place in the league grant access to the Conference League.
- Partizan will need to cheer for their rivals, Crvena zvezda, if Vojvodina wins the cup, to have a chance at qualifying for the Europa League.
