Napoli lawyer Mattia Grassani said Paris Saint-Germain risk very little in a match-fixing investigation, but Red Star Belgrade could be in dire trouble.
French newspaper L’Equipe reported UEFA had opened an investigation after a Red Star Belgrade director prepared to place a €5m bet on his side losing by five goals.
They are in the same Champions League group as Napoli and Liverpool, so this involves the Partenopei if the Serbians are excluded from the competition.

French newspaper L’Equipe reported UEFA had opened an investigation after a Red Star Belgrade director prepared to place a €5m bet on his side losing by five goals.
They are in the same Champions League group as Napoli and Liverpool, so this involves the Partenopei if the Serbians are excluded from the competition.
“Paris Saint-Germain risk very little, almost nothing,” Napoli lawyer Grassani told Il Mattino newspaper.
“However, the Serbians risk the impossible. If UEFA confirm certain things, then I really don’t see how they could escape serious punishment.
“The absolute minimum would be their exclusion from the competition, then would have to evaluate the length of the ban.”
Napoli drew 0-0 in Belgrade, while PSG beat Red Star 6-1.
