Only the second game in the Fortuna Liga for these teams and it's all to play for here at Štadión Tehelné pole as Slovan Bratislava welcomes Trenčín. Check out this preview!
Bratislava have less rest than Trenčín in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Champions League game only three days ago. That game was an away game at Young Boys, so at least Bratislava are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Trenčín 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 11-9-21 (win-draw-loss) from 41 matches.

Henty scored one goal and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Rafael Ratão for missing a penalty kick versus Young Boys in the 21st minute.
