Not a lot of time to rest for the hosts, as they featured in a 1. SNL game only three days earlier. This match was also played here at Mestni Štadion Fazanerija. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Celje have had more rest.

Mura form and stats

When playing at home in the 1. SNL, Mura have managed 6 wins, 4 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 12 games.

Mura's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Radomlje (placed 7th).

Before that match, a win away at Aluminij.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Mura have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won two times, drawn five and lost one.

There will be little rest for Mura after this match as they are travelling to Domžale for a 1. SNL game in only three days.

The Mura fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 12 matches. 14 goals have been conceded.

Celje form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Celje so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-8 (win-draw-lose). It's all red in the travel logs of Celje, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.

Celje had fun at their own home (Mestni Štadion Fazanerija) last time out, beating Aluminij 3-2. Zec, Morozov and Kuzmanović scored.

A 0-3 defeat away at Bravo before that.

We have checked recent matches where Celje have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those seven games were one victory, three draws and three defeats.

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

The attacking power of Celje when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 11 league matches away. Celje struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 17 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head
