Final score: Hapoel Beer Sheva 1–0 FK Crvena Zvezda
Match preview
Hapoel Beer Sheva face a stern test against FK Crvena Zvezda in a crucial UEFA Champions League qualifier on August 4, 2026. The Israeli side enters this encounter in concerning form, having failed to secure a win in their last two outings, registering a draw and a loss with no goals scored and one conceded. Their overall continental record of 0W 1D 1L highlights their struggles in the competition so far.
Conversely, Crvena Zvezda arrive with significantly better momentum. The Serbian giants boast a 50% win rate from their last ten matches across all competitions, finding the net eight times and conceding seven. Their recent form is particularly impressive, with three wins, one draw, and just one loss in their last five fixtures. This disparity in form is reflected in the odds, with Crvena Zvezda favored at 1.965 compared to Hapoel Beer Sheva's 4.00. Given Hapoel's struggles to score, the Under 2.5 goals market at 2.09 looks appealing, especially considering the Over 2.5 is priced at a high 8.5. Watch for Crvena Zvezda to assert their attacking dominance against a defensively minded Beer Sheva.
