The famous Rice Derby took place in front of a packed stadium in Vinica, but the Kochani visitors claimed the points. After a an hour of play with almost no chances, except the hosts hitting the post early in the match, experienced substitute Dragan Paunov broke the dead lock and decided the match winner.

Golemo Konjari eventually in the seventh match managed to celebrate a win. It was an unexpected win over the good team of Kozhuf, who scored an own goal giving the hosts their first win this season and actually the first points.

One of the two promotion derbies took place in Ohrid where the host team and Bregalnica played a goalless draw. The other promotion derby was played a day later, on Sunday, when Belasica hosted Shkëndija 77. The visitors managed to grab the points thanks to an unlucky own goal. Bregalnica and Shkëndija 77 are now equal on points at the top.
