Vllaznia Shkoder II will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 34 points behind Vora.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the 2nd Division. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Tirana II.

Vllaznia Shkoder II's stadium, Fusha sportive Reshit Rusi, has a artifical turf surface. Vora have grass on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for Vora when playing on artifical turf; 11 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses from 19 matches. They have scored 50 goals in these games and conceded 20.

Relegation threatens Vllaznia who should definitely be looking for some points here. Vora are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
