The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Oriku are in the 6th position while the guesting Elbasani worry at 10th.

Oriku form and stats

Oriku are steadily winning 1st Division games and points here at Fusha Sportive Orikum. 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 9 games. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Oriku, as their goalkeeper has completely shut out the opponents for 490 minutes in the 1st Division.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Shënkolli and winning 1-0.

The Oriku fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 9 matches. Oriku have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.
