Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Gjilani & Kek-U face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Kosovar Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
The hosts Gjilani saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Superliga. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Besa Peje.
Gjilani form and stats
Last season their Kosovar Cup adventure ended in the quarter-finals.4 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Gjilani have to build on here in the Superliga. The Gjilani manager G. Mezani might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
A strong away win for Gjilani against Besa Peje the last match. Before that game, the home loss against Prishtina with the scoreline 0-3.
Gjilani are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 9 games. From these home matches, Gjilani have conceded only 7 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Kek-U form and stats
There's been little loot from Kek-U's travels as they have only collected 0 points from 16 away games in the Superliga. Kek-U only have 0 wins to counter their 16 defeats and 0 draws. Kek-U are still without points from their Superliga away games. 16 games, 16 defeats. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Kek-U, who have now gone 34 games without a victory. The Drita game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 17 away games in a row.
Kek-U lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
Goals are few and far between in Kek-U's away league games. Only 8 goals from 16 travels. There are big problems for the Kek-U defense as they have conceded 51 goals in 16 away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
Head 2 Head
Last four meetings between the teams: Gjilani won four, Kek-U won zero and zero draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.Gjilani missing players
