Gorica confront Koper for praise and success.
It's no vacation for neither Gorica nor Koper as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Gorica form and stats
Gorica have played three 1. SNL home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Gorica to get some points in this home game.
The Gorica supporters got no joy from their last match, also played here at Športni Park: A 1-2 defeat against Koper (placed 2nd).
Preceding that match was the home game against Radomlje that was lost 0-1.It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Gorica at home in the league. 3 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 3 matches.
Koper form and stats
Things could have gone better for Koper in their 1. SNL away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
It's the second away game in a row for Koper, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Gorica (placed 7th) last time out. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Željkovič when Jašaragić scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 71st minute.
Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Maribor.2 goals so far away for Koper, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
Gorica - Koper 1-2 was the output when this pair of teams formerly met, some time ago this season. Statistics for the prior ten meetings involving these two squads are: three wins for Gorica, four draws and three wins for Koper. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
