Season ticket holders at Stadion Kranjčevićeva haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Rudeš languishing in the 10th position so far. The guesting Gorica will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Rudeš form and stats
