The spoils were shared in Siroki Brijeg's previous game, also at home. Visiting Posusje travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Tuzla City that finished 2-2.This is expected to be a close game, with Siroki Brijeg perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Velez form and stats
Velez's mission in Bosnia Cup last season failed in the 8th finals.The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier Liga travels is 4 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats.
Velez might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Tuzla City proved too strong as Velez slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadion Vrapčići.
Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Borac Banja Luka's place.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Velez playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were two Velez wins, three draws and zero defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Velez manager Dudic as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Zeljeznicar.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Velez have scored 16 goals in 11 league games away. As opposed to that, Velez have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
