Metalac GM form and stats

When playing at home in the Super Liga, Metalac GM have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 5 defeats from 9 games.

Djuric was the last player to score a league goal for Metalac GM and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Metalac haven't scored in 180 minutes.

In their previous game, the manager Žižic led his Metalac to a defeat in the Super Liga match away at Proleter Novi Sad. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion FK Metalac.

1-1 away at Radnicki Novi Beograd (after extra-time, 2-3 on penalties) before that.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Partizan to win. Let's see if Metalac GM are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: two games found revealing zero Metalac GM wins, zero draws and two defeats.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Metalac as they are travelling to their away game against Vozdovac in the Super Liga. That match is four days after this one.

Metalac have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadion FK Metalac with 15 goals in 9 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Metalac defense is not exactly impregnable. 16 goals conceded from 9 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Partizan form and stats

The strength of Partizan on their travels this season is incredible with 27 points collected from 9 Super Liga away games. Partizan has 9-0-0 on the road, with 26 goals scored and 3 conceded. In general it has been a productive period now for Partizan as they haven't lost any of their last 19 games.

222 minutes! That's how long the Partizan goalkeeper Nemanja Stevanovic and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Partizan delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Anorthosis in their previous match; a Europa Conference League game. Midfield player Jojić was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.45/10. Jojić served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Novi Pazar in the Super Liga.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Partizan given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed eleven matches with ten wins as expected, zero draws and one surprise home win. The favourites won five of these games by at least two goals.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Kolubara in just three days.

Partizan create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 26 goals in 9 travels. The Partizan defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (3 goals in 9 games).
