 The fourth round is next in Macedonian football championship. Lots of interesting games and attractive derbies, but let's start with Saturday's games. The newcomer and the real 'hit' in this season FK Milano is hosting Pelister from Bitola in the first game in this round.
This should be very interesting game to watch as both teams are on top of the table with 7 points, and some nice play displayed so far. Both teams have no particular injury problems, and this will be their first meeting ever. At 20.30 local time (GMT +1) a big derby on 'Gradski' stadium. The neighbours Vardar and Rabotnicki will meet today in what should be the most attractive match of the round. Such derbies have always been magnet to the fans, and a real football atmosphere should occur tonight. Vardar has some small problems with injuries in the defence, but hopefully everything will be alright till the beginning. Vardar has better tradition in this derby, but such statistics probably doesn't mean anything in this game. On Sunday, we will see real 'battle' on Goce Delcev stadium in Prilep where the current champions Pobeda are hosting Renova. Both teams didn't have start on this season as they wanted to, so hard battle should be expected in order to both teams start winning points as quick as they can. Surely an open game here with lots of chances on both sides should be seen. Statistics say that in the previous 6 meetings there hasn't been a draw so far (3 victories each) and only game has finished with one goal. Every other game had 2 or more goals scored. Makedonija Gjorche Petrov are the favorites in the clash between the other promoter Cementarnica 55, but surely they won't see white flag from the visitors. The hosts now officially have new coach and that is Robert Stojanovski. A big blow for Cementarnica 55 is the absence of Tiago due to an injury. Bashkimi in Kumanovo will want the first points in the new season, but Napredok has something to say about that. Teams quality is similar, but certainly great advantage for Bashkimi will be the home court and fans. Napredok is happy to announce that the 3 injured and one suspended player are all back in action. Shkendija 79 will also search for its' first victory in this season when they will be playing against the visitors from Kratovo - Sileks. The fans of Shkendija will be back on the stadium after boycotting the last couple of games. Certainly an interesting game to watch, where judging by the quality maybe sharing of spoils will be most realistic to predict.
