Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Brežice & Dekani face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Slovenian Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
It's no vacation for neither Brežice nor Dekani 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.
Brežice form and stats
Brežice participated in Slovenian Cup the last season, where they reached the 1st round.Brežice have less points than they have played home games in the 2. SNL so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 0 points. Three consecutive losses here at Stadion Brežice is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
Brežice are returning here after visiting Rudar Velenje in a 2. SNL game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Nobody expected Brežice to beat Rudar Velenje in the last match, but sometimes David beats Goliath. Preceding that match was the home 2. SNL game against Radomlje that was lost 1-3.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Brežice have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found three matches with the results: Won zero, drawn two and lost one.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Triglav are coming to town in three days.
Brežice has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 7 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Dekani form and stats
Dekani are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the 2. SNL, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Dekani playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were one Dekani win, one draw and zero defeats.
After this away game Dekani return home for a 2. SNL game against Radomlje. That game is only four sleeps after this.
The Dekani manager A. Ščulac has got the team scoring on the road, with 6 away goals in 3 league matches. Dekani have conceded 4 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
