It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Jagodina and IMT Novi Beograd.

Jagodina form and stats

When playing at home in the Prva Liga, Jagodina have managed 4 wins, 9 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 15 games. 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 15 attempts. With eight home Prva Liga games in a row without a win, the Jagodina fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Radnički Pirot game long ago, can be stopped today.

No payout for Jagodina in their previous match, an away game at Grafičar that ended in defeat 0-2. Preceding that match was a defeat to Radnički Sr. Mitrovica (1-3).

The manager S. Božičić will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Radnički Pirot in only four days.

The Jagodina fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 15 matches. From these home matches, Jagodina have conceded only 12 goals.
