We won’t have the Summer Olympics or Euro 2020 to keep our attention over the summer, but we will have domestic soccer. The English Premier League, Italy’s Serie A, and Spain’s La Liga announced their intention to return to the pitch within the next few weeks, joining Germany’s Bundesliga. Portugal’s Primeira Liga will commence play once more in the middle of this week too, giving sports starved fans some more soccer to wager on and watch.

Red Star Belgrade have only won this cup three times in their history, and that’s a little surprising given their pedigree compared to the rest of the clubs in Serbia.

FC Smolevichi-Sti vs. FC Gorodeya, 11:30 a.m. ET
Smolevichi are looking to pick up their first win of the season. They are 0-4-6 through 10 games, and they seem destined to be relegated along with Belshina. If they want to avoid that fate, they must start picking up three points at home in winnable games like this one.
