Season ticket holders at Gradski Stadion haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Zlatibor Čajetina languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Metalac GM will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Insights:
  • Zlatibor Čajetina have the fewest points (9) at home in Super Liga
  • Metalac GM have scored at least twice as many goals away as Zlatibor Čajetina have scored home.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Zlatibor Čajetina form and stats

Zlatibor Čajetina's results here at Gradski Stadion in the Super Liga have been very modest with 2 victories, 3 draws and 12 defeats. With ten home Super Liga games in a row without a win, the Zlatibor fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Backa Palanka game long ago, can be stopped today.

Ahead of that match, Zlatibor lost 0-1 at home to Novi Pazar.

There will be little rest for Zlatibor after this match as they are travelling to Crvena Zvezda for a Super Liga game in only four days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Zlatibor Čajetina here at Gradski Stadion in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 17 games). Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 27 goals have been conceded.

Metalac GM form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Super Liga travels is 7 wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats. Metalac love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.

A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Inđija.

The end of the last match, against Vojvodina, was very satisfying as Vieljeux Prestige Mboungou scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Metalac have scored 20 goals in 17 league games away. In the opposite end, Metalac have conceded 31 goals in their away games.
