POBEDA

Pobeda is increasingly losing hope for survival, and now it is no longer safe to survive, trying to get nothing else to take the eighth place, allowing play to play with the second league team.

Pobeda comes in this duel after losing to Rabotnicki last weekend, when a multi-goal challenge was eventually defeated with 4-2.

For Pobeda, this was the third loss in the last four games and all these defeats were recorded as a guest.

For the team from Prilep, the fact is that the team is playing very well last time in the host matches, although the same is developing over 100 kilometers from the city, in Strumica.

In the last four games held in Strumica as a host, Pobeda has recorded three wins, against Rabotnic, Vardar and Shkëndija, while lost only from Skopje.

In the last two domestic matches, Pobeda has picked up two big wins, defeating two of the best teams in Macedonia, the former 2-0 Vardar champion and the new Spyja champion with 2-1.

Pobeda is forced to play outside her home and in Strumica, due to inadequate areas in her town. The team has not played in Prilep since November last year.

With the loss of last week from Rabotnicki, Pobeda now sees himself among the last two teams in Macedonia. The team from Prilep currently has 32 points and is in the ninth place, with equal points with eighth place Skopje. The tenth game has a less point. These three teams, the last three laps will develop a great eighth place fight, enabling that play to play outs.

After Pelister, Pobeda has the weakest defense in Macedonia, with 55 goals in 33 games.

Te Pobeda, in this match will miss the best footballer of the team, defensive midfielder Filip Najdovski. He against Rabotnic last week got the 13th yellow card this year and will miss the cause of the suspension now for the third time this season.

Besides Najdovski, in Pobeda all other players will be able to play tomorrow, and in case of punishment, the next game will not be able to play Viktor Velkoski and Nikola Jacimovic.

Sileks goalkeeper Milan Mitrović continues to be one of the only three players who have played in all matches and possible minutes so far. He has defended all the 33 past so far and has gone to the field of 2970 possible minutes, for which he suffered 35 goals, while in 14 games he kept his net intact.

SILEKS

After the extraordinary performance in the spring season, Sileks continues to be in poor shape in 2018 and is now questioning even the appearance in the Europa League, which seemed to be safe even in the third position. The team from Kratova continues to hold this position, but now with only one point more than the fourth and four points for Rabotnicki than Akademija Pandev and Shkupi in fifth and sixth positions.

Sileks comes to this meeting after the failure and new defeat, this time being experienced at home, from the new champion, the Shkendija with 3-1. The only goal and honor for the team from Kratova, scored Blagojevic, at a time when his team was already in the disadvantage of 3-0.

Sileks is without a win in the last four championship meetings, where he won a single point, with the 1-1 draw with Shkupi, while lost to Pelister, Vardar and Shkendija.

Sileks is in a very poor shape in 2018, where he has managed to win only three games so far, and has had a total of 15 meetings. In the other 12 duels, Sileks has six draws and losses.

Sileks team is without a win in the last five meetings as a guest, where he lost in three games, winning from a point 1-1 against Skopje and Shkupi. Last victory as guest and the only one of its kind in 2018, has against Vardar in Skopje with 3-2, when the latter caused the cause of a boycott, decided to play with the academy players.

Although with poor shape in 2018 and especially on trips, Sileks is the second most successful guest this season in Macedonia. The team from Kratova has so far won six out of 16 trips, with five draws and losses. He scored 17, while he suffered 19 goals.

With only 28 goals scored in 33 matches, less than one goal to challenge, Sileks possesses the second weakest attack in Macedonia after that of Skopje.

With 35 goals this season, Sileks has the third best defense in the first league of Macedonia.

Coach Zikica Tasevski will be able to count on all the players for tomorrow’s match, where in case they are penalized, the next meeting will not be able to play

Darko Aleksovski, Gligor Gligorov, Milan Mitrović, Dejan Blagojevic and Milos Djordjevic.

Stadiums: “Mladost” – Strumica

Pobeda continues to play as a host in Strumica, the stadium has brought luck, especially in the last two meetings. This stadium still offers one of the best conditions in Macedonia and for this reason, Pobeda prefers to continue playing as a native here. The field is almost ideal and among the best in Macedonia.

Before the game analysis:

The duel between Pobeda and Sileks will be a duel where two teams will face different aspirations. The locals, with flesh and soul, strive to survive this season in the first league and now, as the only option, has remained the eighth position and the play out game. An eventual failure tomorrow and positive outcomes from Skopje or Pelister, Pobeda, would remove even more from this goal. However, they enjoy the fact that the last meeting as hosts in this stadium capitulated two convincingly better formations in Macedonia, Vardar and Sileks and now, why not even Sileksi third. On the other hand, the guests, without any goals in three games this year from Pobeda, want to end the series of four unbeaten matches and eventual triumphs tomorrow, want to strengthen the third place and stay ahead of Rabotniki and followers others.
