Red Star – Paphos Tip Champions League, Qualification, Playoffs, First Leg on Tuesday, 19.08.25 at 21:00
Attention, sports betting fans! Not only with regard to the Interwetten bonus, but also to the up-and-coming Cypriot football powerhouse! Pafos has its sights set high – preferably in the Champions League group stage.
However, the Mediterranean kickers face a tricky away game in the Balkans on Tuesday, which they cannot afford to lose. A heavy defeat in the first leg could already rob them of any realistic chance of advancing.
However, in my Red Star Belgrade vs. Pafos prediction, I still have to side slightly with the hosts. The Serbs eliminated a respectable opponent in the last round and have also made a magnificent start to the league.
My Red Star Belgrade Pafos tip: Pafos will not score!
Here are the reasons for my tip:
- Pafos has scored a maximum of 1 goal in its last 4 away games!
- Pafos will try to keep the score at 0-0 for as long as possible!
- Belgrade has significantly more international experience!
Red Star Belgrade vs. Pafos AI predictions:
Before I look for a soccer betting provider, I always consult ChatGPT, whose Red Star Belgrade vs. Pafos AI prediction has helped me again this time. It gave me some useful suggestions that I want to put to the test.
For example, I would definitely take “Red Star Belgrade wins to nil” at odds of around 2.80. I would even add a 2.5-goal limit, as I think a 1-0 or 2-0 win for the Serbs is by far the most likely outcome.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Red Star Belgrade to win |
Draw |
Pafos win |
| 60.6% |
24.4% |
15% |
“Under 2.5 goals” at odds of around 2.20 – that’s ChatGPT’s second suggestion. In Pafos’ last 8 games, fewer than 3 goals have been scored each time, which gives this suggestion a lot of statistical credibility! I like it!
“First goal: Red Star Belgrade” is ultimately a supposedly safe bet that you just have to love. After all, the Serbs have scored the first goal in each of their last 13 games.
