For the first time in history, Vojvodina overtakes Red Star in Europe!

Red Star's fall out with Kairat in the first qualifying round of the Europa League will cost them dearly in the coming years. The minimum number of points that the red and whites won this and the previous season, when they were expelled from Europe, resulted in a drop of Red Star in the UEFA rankings.

Vojvodina used this situation to its advantage and used its placement in the 3rd round of the Europa League to further enhance the club's coefficient, and for the first time in history, overtook Red Star based on club coefficient.

UEFA NOTED THE ENORMOUS PAYMENT TO THE BOOKIES: Interpol will deal with the OFK - RED STAR match!

In the next phase of the competition, the Novi Sad club will meet with Sampdoria, and even in the event of failing in the third round, they will be guaranteed one point which is enough to overtake Red Star. If they make a feat and surprise the Italians, they can be further promoted.

In any case, "Lale" should not exceed a quota of 7,000 points.

An additional problem for Red Star when it comes coefficient, is the fact that in the next season, points from the season 11/12 will be deleted (when the red and whites won a solid number of points), and will therefore further lower their place in the rankings, with around 6,500 points.
