With their 6 point advantage in the league table, Rudar Velenje fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Primorje.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Slovenian Cup match only four days ago. This match was also played here at Štadion Ob Jezeru. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Primorje have had more rest.
Rudar Velenje form and stats
When playing at home in the 2. SNL, Rudar Velenje have managed 1 win, 2 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 5 games. Two draws in a row at home now for Velenje.
Velenje's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-3 versus Maribor. Before that, Rudar Velenje drew at home versus NS Drava.
Velenje are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 5 games. 7 goals have been conceded.
Primorje form and stats
0-1-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Primorje, who have the fewest points (1) away in 2. SNL, in their 2. SNL matches away. With the Primorje losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Primorje are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Primorje might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Radomlje proved too strong as Primorje slumped to a 1-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Nogometni stadion Ajdovščina. A 0-3 defeat away at Dekani before that.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Primorje's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 5 matches. Primorje have conceded 11 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Rudar Velenje, four draws and four wins for Primorje. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.Top Goalscorers
