The upcoming 163rd "eternal" Belgrade football derby between Partizan and Red Star on Sunday, October 18 will not be played in the presence of fans for now - Telegraf has learned!

This is the decision of the Crisis HQ set up to deal with the coronavirus epidemic, whose meeting on Wednesday among other things discussed matches of greater importance to society, and a Telegraf source inside the HQ said that all members unanimously agreed not to allow fans to return to the stadium.

Whether this decision will change in the near future will depend on the epidemiological situation in the coming period, and this also means that the Serbian national team will play against Hungary in the League of Nations on Sunday in an empty stadium.

UEFA recently allowed stadiums to fill 30 percent of their capacity in matches played under its auspices, but only where local authorities allow it.
