It's advantage Budućnost so far with their 1st position in the First League table, welcoming Mladost Ljeskopolje who are placed 5th.
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!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Mladost Ljeskopolje have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 22-14-13 (win-draw-loss) from 49 matches.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Budućnost form and stats
Budućnost, who have the most scored goals (60) in First League, have been very solid at home in the First League so far, with 37 points collected from 14 matches (12-1-1). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table. After failing to beat Sutjeska here at Stadion Pod Goricom, Budućnost has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with nine wins in a row.
Budućnost are returning here after visiting Rudar in a First League game and winning with a 4-0 scoreline. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Iskra.
As mentioned above, Budućnost "killed" Rudar in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
The manager M. Milinković will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Kom in only four days.
Budućnost can score goals in their home matches. After 14 league matches they have found the net 28 times. From these home matches, Budućnost have conceded only 10 goals.
