    Fudbalski klub Partizan, commonly referred to as Partizan Belgrade outside of Serbia, or simply as Partizan, is a Serbian professional football club based in Belgrade. It forms a major part of the Partizan multi-sport club. The club plays in the Serbian SuperLiga and has spent its entire history in the top tier of Yugoslav and Serbian football having won a total of 45 official trophies: 27 national championships, 16 national cups, 1 national supercup, 1 Mitropa Cup finishing in the Yugoslav league all-time table as second. Partizan was founded on 4 October 1945 in Belgrade, as a football section of the Central House of the Yugoslav Army “Partizan”, and was named in honor of the Partisans, the communist military formation who fought against fascism during World War II in Yugoslavia. The club was formed and initially managed by the group of young high officers of the Yugoslav People's Army and veterans of the Spanish Civil War.

    In 1958, the club left way behind 13 years of playing in blue-red kits and adopted the now famous black and white colors. The change in the club's image and appearance was followed by radical changes in the playing squad. The number of young players, offspring of Partizan's own youth ranks known as Partizanove bebe (The Partizan's babies), soon emerged into one of the best generations Europe's ever seen. The 1965–66 European Cup campaign was the crown of this generation's career. The semi-finals would see Partizan taking part in an emotional tie that would bring Manchester United, in their first season back in the European Cup after the Munich air disaster, returning to the scene of their final game, at the JNA Stadium. Partizan won the first leg, and resisted the heavy pressure on Old Trafford, conceding only once; with a 2–1 aggregate scoreline, they eliminated the English giants. The final game was played on 11 May at Heysel Stadium, Brussels. Until the 70th minute, Partizan was 1–0 up through a goal by Velibor Vasović, but ultimately lost 2–1 to Real Madrid.

    Partizan has a long-standing rivalry with Red Star Belgrade. Matches between these two clubs are known as the Eternal Derby ("Večiti derbi") and rate as one of the greatest cross-town clashes in the world. The club plays its home games at the Partizan Stadium.

    We will win this 1-0 because it’s a nothing game

    This team can turn it on when there no pressure

    A thrilling low scoring game, probably a penalty

    Play all the useless ones + academy ones. Fight for our life at OT for heroic 0-0. Move on to next one.

    I think Scott needs resting more than anyone! Our midfield options are ridiculous though! I’d play Jones next to Garner personally!

    God knows what’ll happen over the busy festive period if McT gets injured?

    Should be a routine comfortable 1-0 penalty win for United.

    Young is suspended, will be interesting to see who gets on the bench as a fullback! Let's hope we don't see Jones there in case Wan needs to rest!

    They're going to have to add more youth players to the guess the lineup game, we've got 8 players out injured!

    Dalot Tuanzebe Bailly Shaw
    Matic Fosu-Mensah
    Gomes(?) Pogba Young
    ??
    Almost a full XI!

    Feeling the same. Although with our recent run I was looking forward to the the Bournemouth game. That result set me back to not giving a shit again. I’m not even going to bother watching this week. I missed the Chelsea game due to work.

    We absolutely don't care about this game, like 80% of our games now.

    We are such in a bad state that we are not even willing to watch this game.

    AWB
    Jones
    Rojo
    Williams

    Fred
    Mc Tominay

    Lingard

    Feel the same. It is all becoming very predictable now. We start okay, miss a couple half chances and then the opponent grows into the game. Surprise surprise they score and the Ole United cannot turn a losing result into anything other than a laboured performance.

    Mentally so weak this squad. toothless.

    Rashford, James, and Scott could use a breather. Play Greenwood uptop and move martial wide

    I think Ole will stay relatively strong as winning the game puts us through - we can then take more risks resting players in the next two group games. That said, I'd hope that Gomes and/or Chong can make the 18. Will have to see what happens in the presser, but I think the likes of Maguire, McTominay, and one of the main strikers should be rested for the Premier League game. I can't see Ole leaving out Rashford even though I'd like him to finally skip a game, there's probably too much pressure on him to do so.

    Assuming nobody who was out will make it in time?
    Romero
    Jones Maguire Rojo
    Wan Bissaka Fred Garner Williams
    Mata
    Greenwood Lingard​

    Gomes and Chong to get subbed on. Hopefully we get a comfortable win to finish the group basically.
