Novi Pazar lost their last game at Javor Ivanjica (placed 6th) after a 1-3 scoreline.

Ahead of that match, Pazar won a home game hosting Radnicki Kragujevac (2-0).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Novi Pazar's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 4 games, won 3 matches, drawn 1 and lost 0.

IMT Novi Beograd form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Super Liga ended in defeat. Last season IMT Novi Beograd had these away match statistics: Played 3; won 2, drew 0 and lost 1.

IMT Novi Beograd played 2-2 against Vozdovac in their previous match. Glišić was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.82. The defender Glišić scored one goal, hit one key pass and won 9 of 17 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Spartak Subotica wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Beograd playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 2 away wins, 1 draw and 1 home win.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Cukaricki in just four days.

It's early days yet, but IMT Novi Beograd has scored 1 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
