East:

With one round left is is everything clear now on East when it comes to the direct promotion. Pobeda took the needed 3 points from Pehchevo and clinched top. The Monkeys are now 3 points away from second-placed Belasica and even if the finish equal on points will still be first due to the better head-to-head record with the Kangaroos.

Belasica defeated Sloga 1934 in what happened to be a battle for the promotion play-off spot. That still can change as the difference between the two is just a point. In the last round Belasica visits Kozhuf, a team that secured its place for next season, while Sloga hosts Pobeda.

Osogovo failed to defeat Detonit, the direct rival for avoiding relegation. The last round will decide which team will join Bratstvo 04 and Lokomotiva in the third tier.

West:

Vardar managed to beat already promo0ted Sileks, but Voska Sport defeated Besa 1976, so the battle for the promotion play-off spot continues until the very end. Voska Sport is in much better position as they now have to play at least a draw away to Sileks in the last round, while Vardar first must beat Korabi and sent them to the third division and then pray for Sileks to defeat Voska Sport. With that scenario Vardar and Voska Sport would be equal on points, but the Red&Blacks have better head-to-head record.

The third relegated team that will join Kadino and Veleshta will be known in the last round. It will be a battle between Ohrid and Korabi with the first hosting Teteks, while the later having a much tougher task in hosting giants Vardar.
