The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Krka are in the 8th position while the guests worry at 11th.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

NŠ Drava form and stats
NŠ Drava have only collected 7 points from their away games in the 2. SNL, after 2-1-5 (8 played). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in NŠ Drava's last three away games as they have all been lost. It's a growing despair in NŠ Drava as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
NŠ Drava failed to get anything from their last game, a 2. SNL home match vs Dekani (placed 10th) that ended with defeat 0-1. Preceding that, the 0-4 home loss versus Fužinar.
The travelling fans enjoy NŠ Drava's attacking play in away games, having scored 12 goals in 8 league matches away. The NŠ Drava manager M. Vugdalic has some worries about the defense as 17 goals have been conceded in these travels.
