Red Star Belgrade's players are now aware of all the potential rivals they may face in the Champions League qualifiers. The Serbian champions will begin their qualifying journey from the second round due to Serbia's lower national coefficient.

Red Star will receive favorable treatment throughout the qualifiers, but even at the start, there are potential "landmines" awaiting them. This season has seen significant upsets in European leagues, with teams like Arhus winning the Danish title, Young Boys in Switzerland, Malmö in Sweden, and all these clubs could be potential rivals for Red Star in the qualifiers.

Other possible opponents include Vikingur from Iceland, Kairat from Kazakhstan, Krajova from Romania, Riga from Latvia, Ki Klasvik from the Faroe Islands, Flora from Estonia, Petrocub from Moldova, and Nijmegen from the Netherlands. However, all these teams must first pass the first round of the qualifiers.

The qualifiers begin on July 7, with the second round scheduled for July 21 and 22, and the return matches on July 28 and 28. According to projections, potential opponents for the third round include Shamrock Rovers from Ireland, "Kups" from Finland, Hapoel Beer Sheva, Lincoln Red Imps, and Borac from Banja Luka. The champion of Kosovo, Drita, is considered unlikely to face Red Star in the draw.

In the potential play-off round, the situation is particularly tricky, with the champions of Greece (AEK Athens), Celje from Slovenia, Omonia from Cyprus, LASK from Austria, and Viking from Norway. However, with the exception of AEK and Viking, the other teams are not certain to reach the play-off stage, so the final list of potential rivals will be determined after the earlier qualifying rounds.
