Pelister form and stats

Pelister's struggle is real here at Stadion pod Tumbe Kafe with only 7 points collected from 7 First League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-4-2. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Pelister with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Struga game, 41 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

In their previous game, the manager Z. Shterjovski led his Pelister to a defeat in the First League match away at Rabotnicki. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion pod Tumbe Kafe. Preceding that match was the home game against Sileks that was lost 1-2.

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

Pelister have scored 5 league goals here from 7 matches, not a lot. On the other hand, Pelister have conceded 7 goals.

Shkupi form and stats

The visitors are W2-D3-L2 on the road this term. That's in the First League. One point away has become something of a habit for Shkupi who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Shkupi had fun at their own home (Stadion pod Tumbe Kafe) last time out, beating Belasica 3-1. A 0-0 draw at Makedonija's stadium before that.

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

The visitors have scored 6 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (6 so far).
