Htaccess 301 redirect url not working as per expectation

Question

I want to match url in htaccess and want 301 redirect based on the url check. But its not working properly as per my expectations.

Here is what I want to achieve and here is my code try.

MY OLD URL - https://www.mywebsite.com/support-detail/1903/my-title

MY NEW URL TO REDIRECT 301 - https://www.mywebsite.com/support-detail/my-title

.htaccess

RedirectMatch 301 /support-detail/$1/$2 /support-detail/$2

As you can see my code, I want all the pages which has something like this, /support-detail/$1/$2 , I want theme to redirect at /support-detail/$2 but its keep saying 404 page not found.. I even try with /support-detail/$1 but its still not working..

Can someone guide me what I am doing wrong here in my url.

Any guidance will be highly appreciated.

Thanks
