 Round 14 from the macedonian football championship is up-next and we dont need long introduction. Pelister against Vardar in Bitola - the ultimate macedonian football derby. 

Once again, the round will be opened by champions Rabotnicki's home match. This time, they will host Turnovo Horizont. Rabotnicki will be looking forward to forget the bad memories from their last home match against Napredok where they were surprised by the visitors and only played 1-1. In the midweek round they, more or less expectedly, lost from Makedonija Gjorche Petrov. Turnovo is only one point over the 3 last placed teams and they will certainly need every point from now on. Nevertheless, the hosts must be considered as favorites.

On Sunday, in Bitola, 'Pod Tumbe Kafe' stadium will be the place where Pelister will meet Vardar. Every football fan in Macedonia knows what this means. The number one all-time derby. Vardar were far more succesful recently but in the last season Pelister managed to win twice. The first time these two met in this season it was 3-0 for Vardar on Gradski in Skopje. But, no matter how much these two teams are succesful at the moment of the match or what the statistics show, it is always very different on the pitch. Motivation is extra-high for both teams and victory is the ultimate goal. Let's hope for another great derby with excellent football and great show by the fans, as well. Both teams are in down-trend and Sunday's match can be a great turn-over point. The match will be live on A1.

Another interesting match is expected in Prilep where Pobeda will host Milano. This could be the chance for Pobeda's revenge after the first time they've played in this season in Kumanovo where  Milano won 5-2. After the last round, Milano have found themselves on the second place on the table with only 2 points less then Makedonija Gjorche Petrov. Pobeda, on the other side, are 6th placed with 14 points gathered so far.

Table-leaders Makedonija Gjorche Petrov will be visitors in this round, but they won't travel far. Metalurg will be their hosts. After Jovanovski took charge of Metalurg, they have escaped from the last place on the table and started playing better football. That is a reason more why this match promises to be an exciting one. Makedonija are not as convincing as visitors as they are in home, but undoubtedly they are the best team so far in the season.

On the bottom of the table, Sileks will host Napredok. Both teams have 10 points and only goal difference determines who is last and who not between these two and Metalurg as well. These matches are extremely important for both teams because too many times we've seen these teams struggling to avoid relegation at the end of the season.

Renova is free in this round.

What to expect in 2009!? Another year has left and a new one has arrived. We can't say that 2008 was successful for the Macedonian football in general, but can we predict what will happen in this 2009? Maybe if we summarize all the events from last year we can at least have a good look in what should we expect to happen in 2009.  Details...

FFM, go after Amauri, Almunia and Streit! Because FIFA’s rules do not apply for the Macedonian football federation as they wanted to give Macedonian passports to foreign players Washington and Osa, we are suggesting that FFM should also try and get Amauri, Almunia, Streit etc in the Macedonian national team.  Details...
