Shkupi have journeyed here for an entertaining fight versus the home team Fakel. Get smart on the game with this thorough Club Friendlies 3 preview!
It's quite the trip for Shkupi when visiting Fakel as the cities are 2200 kilometers apart.
The visiting Shkupi played their last game only two days ago, a Club Friendlies 3 match. That game, against Chornomorets, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Shkupi.
Fakel form and stats
The previous season, Fakel's league results were 15 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses, results that produced 2nd position in the Club Friendlies 3. During these 25 matches they scored 43 goals and let in 23. Appearing at their own stadium in the previous season Fakel generated 10-2-1 (win-draw-lost) with 24 goals and 8 conceded.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Club Friendlies 3 game versus Rabotnicki in only one day. This game is also played here at TBC.
Shkupi form and stats
Last season was a triumph for Shkupi in the national league as they took home the Club Friendlies 3 trophy. The championship was secured after 13 wins, 3 draws and only 2 defeats. As this is an away game, it's natural to look at the stats for away matches last season: Won 5, drew 2 and lost 2.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Shkupi manager Sedloski as the team has another away game coming up in only two days, this time against Akhmat Grozny.
It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Shkupi have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 0 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeats from one fixture.
