Ilirija oppose Rudar Velenje for honour and victory.
It's no vacation for neither Ilirija nor Rudar Velenje 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.
Ilirija form and stats
Ilirija have only played one 2. SNL game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats from 15 matches.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Nejc Dermastija not having conceded a league goal in 238 minutes.
Ilirija are returning here after guesting Šentjernej in a Slovenian Cup game and winning with a 4-0 scoreline.
A 0-0 draw away in the 2. SNL before that, with Dravinja the opponent.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 Ilirija have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 8 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 4 and lost 2.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Ilirija, as the 2. SNL home game vs Krka is only four days away.
Ilirija has scored {1 goals} so far and conceded {0 goals} from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
Rudar Velenje form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the 2. SNL ended in defeat. Last season Rudar Velenje had these away match statistics: Played 15; won 2, drew 6 and lost 7.
Two away games in a row for Rudar Velenje, whose boss Zildžović could celebrate last time after the Slovenian Cup win against NK Mons Claudius.
Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Primorje.We have checked recent matches where Rudar Velenje have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 7 games were 2 victories, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Velenje now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A 2. SNL game at Tabor Sezana is waiting in only three days.
