Thank you so much, Sven! It works, but I'm wondering if there's a way to do it the way the 'Countdown' column corresponds to the 'Due date' column as I would like to have a view of the Due date itself, and when adding a new item the 'Countdown' column would populate itself.
Is it at all possible?

Hi kobi1991
You could create a calculated column "Countdown" of type "Date" with the formula
=[Due Date]and then apply the formatting there.
Then you have two columns with the same value, but one is displaying the date and the other one is displaying the countdown.
