Match backgroundTwo former European champions go head to head in the UEFA Europa League round of 32 as Serbian title holdersCrvena zvezda take on Italian Serie A high fliers AC Milan.
• The Belgrade side qualified as runners-up in Group L, behind Hoffenheim, on 11 points, while Milan came through atough section comprising LOSC Lille, Sparta Praha and Celtic, leapfrogging the French side on Matchday 6 to taketop spot with 13 points.
Previous meetings• The clubs have been paired twice previously in UEFA competition, the Italian side prevailing on both occasions.Most famously, they triumphed on penalties in the second round of the 1988/89 European Cup – which the Rossoneriwent on to win – after two 1-1 draws, the second of which, in Belgrade, came a day after the initial second leg hadbeen abandoned because of fog with the home side leading 1-0.
• Milan also overcame Crvena zvezda 3-1 on aggregate in the 2006/07 UEFA Champions League third qualifyinground (1-0 h, 2-1 a), Filippo Inzaghi scoring in both legs. The Rossoneri have never faced any other Serbian club inUEFA competition.
• Crvena zvezda have won only two of their 21 UEFA matches against Italian opposition (D8 L11), the solitary homewin coming against Roma in the 2005/06 UEFA Cup group stage (3-1). Their only success in nine two-leggedEuropean ties against Italian teams came against Chievo in the 2002/03 UEFA Cup first round (0-0 h, 2-0 a), thoughthat was immediately followed by defeat against another Serie A side, Lazio, in the second round (0-1 a, 1-1 h).
• It was in Italy, however, that Crvena zvezda won the 1990/91 European Cup, beating Marseille on penalties after agoalless draw in Bari.
Form guideCrvena zvezda• The 2019/20 season brought Crvena zvezda their 30th national title, completing a hat-trick of Serbian Super Ligasuccesses. The Belgrade giants also reached the UEFA Champions League group stage for the second successiveseason, again finishing in fourth place, behind Bayern, Tottenham Hotspur and Olympiacos.
• The 1990/91 European champions' bid to return to the UEFA Champions League group stage this season undernew head coach Dejan Stanković ended in the third qualifying round with a penalty shoot-out defeat in Cyprus againstOmonoia, but a 2-1 win back in neutral Nicosia against Ararat-Armenia in the UEFA Europa League play-offs ensureda fourth successive autumn of European group stage football. Crvena zvezda lost their opening group game 2-0 atHoffenheim but remained unbeaten thereafter, taking four points off Slovan Liberec (5-1 h, 0-0) and all six off Gent (2-1 h, 2-0 a) as well as drawing the return fixture 0-0 against the German group winners.
• Crvena zvezda's one previous appearance in the UEFA Europa League round of 32, in 2017/18, brought defeat byCSKA Moskva (0-0 h, 0-1 a). That was the club's first springtime European engagement since the 1991/92 EuropeanCup group stage.
• Unbeaten at home in 13 European qualifying matches over the last four seasons (W9 D4), Crvena zvezda's recordin Belgrade in the UEFA Europa League, group stage to final, is W3 D3 L1, with Arsenal the only team to beat themthere.
Milan• A sixth-placed finish in Serie A last term earned Milan a return to Europe after a one-season absence. Stefano Pioli'sside beat Shamrock Rovers (2-0 a) and Bodø/Glimt (3-2 h) in their first two qualifying matches before dramaticallycapturing a place in the UEFA Europa League group stage by ousting Rio Ave 9-8 in a marathon penalty shoot-outafter a 2-2 draw in Portugal.
• The Rossoneri made a strong start to Group H, winning 3-1 at Celtic and 3-0 at home to Sparta, but then lost 0-3 athome to LOSC before drawing 1-1 in France. Further wins against Celtic (4-2 h) and Sparta (1-0 a) were enough,however, to see them through as group winners.
• This is the seven-time European champions' second appearance in the UEFA Europa League round of 32, the first,in 2017/18, having brought a comfortable 4-0 aggregate victory over Ludogorets (3-0 a, 1-0 h) before they crashed outin the round of 16 to Arsenal. Milan failed to get out of their group the following season, finishing third behind RealBetis and Olympiacos.
• Undefeated on the road in 2020/21 (W3 D2), Milan's away record in the UEFA Europa League, qualifiers included, isW8 D4 L3. However, the Rossoneri have struggled on their travels in recent springtime campaigns, losing seven oftheir last 11 post-Christmas European away fixtures, that 3-0 success in Bulgaria three years ago the only victory.
