Another fun-filled match in First League as Pelister receive Borec

It's no vacation for neither Pelister nor Borec as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Pelister form and stats

Pelister's struggle is real here at Stadion pod Tumbe Kafe with only 4 points collected from 8 First League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-4-4. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 16 attempts.

Pelister are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Skendija 79.

In the match before that, Pelister hosted Skopje and drew the game 0-0.

The manager G. Bojcheski will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Akademija Pandev in only four days.

The lack of attacking qualities in Pelister means that they have only scored 2 goals in 8 league home games, less than half a goal per match. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Pelister's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. Pelister has at home met teams with this table position (low), two times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.

Borec form and stats

There's been little loot from Borec's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 8 away games in the First League. Borec only have 0 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Borec, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Pelister game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.

Borec played 1-1 against Makedonija in their previous match.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Bregalnica Stip's place.

After this away game Borec return home for a First League game against Shkupi. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Borec have conceded 17 goals in these games.
