The paper presents a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the phenomenon of racism at football matches in Serbia. The statistic analyses relate to the youth aged 14 to 19. The paper proves that (1) a large part of the population of the young perceives the problem of racism at football matches, but without recognizing racist outburst, and (2) that male gender, membership in fan groups, and alcohol consumption are the common characteristics which, independently or in interaction, characterize a portion of Serbian population prone to racist behaviour. Moreover, the predictive model presented in this paper indicates that (1) there is a significant portion of population of the youth (less than 10%) prone to racist behaviour, as well as (2) the necessity of creating programmes for prevention of racism to be implemented in schools based on education of recognition and avoidance of racism.
