Makedonija form and stats

7 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Makedonija have to build on here at Stadion Gorce Petrov in the First League. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Makedonija, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

It's back home for Makedonija, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Belasica away with the result 2-0. Preceding that match was the home Macedonian Cup game against Akademija Pandev that was lost 1-3.

There will be little rest for Makedonija after this match as they are travelling to Rabotnicki for a First League game in only four days.

The Makedonija fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 13 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Makedonija have conceded 14 goals.

There's been little loot from Borec's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 12 away games in the First League. Borec only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Borec are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Home advantage was not enough for Borec in their previous game, as they lost their First League-match, hosting Struga, 0-1. A 1-2 defeat away at Rabotnicki before that.

A new game in only four days for Borec, the First League home match versus Shkupi. Busy days.

The attacking power of Borec when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 12 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 16 goals have been conceded by Borec in these games.
