Meeting with Lalatovic
 

The manager of Vojvodina is a former Shakhtar player Nenad Lalatovic. In 2003-2005, the defender made 24 appearances for the Donetsk club. He began his coaching career in 2011, having worked only in his homeland so far. Last season, he headed FK Radnicki of Nis. For the first time in their history, the team became silver medalists in the SuperLiga (25 wins, 10 draws, and 2 defeats). Lalatovic took charge of Vojvodina in the summer, with the team currently sitting in the 3rd spot.
  
Updated opponents
 
In the 2018/19 season, Crvena Zvezda defended their league title. Vojvodina finished two rounds in the upper half of the table, still remaining in the 7th place after the play-off round. In the summer, the Red-and-Whites parted with the recent leaders Milan Djuric, Nemanja Milojevic, Daniel Graovac, Damian Goikov, and other players. In general, the team were seriously updated, signing 9 newcomers this winter alone. Vojvodina arrived in Belek on January 24 and held their first training session on Saturday morning, with their game schedule involving 6 friendlies during the two-week training camp.
