Goran Stanikj statement:

“There is only one change in the squad compared to the previous matches. Shaban Zenku, with his good performances in Struga, has earned a place and I hope that he will increase the competition in the team in the right way.

We are going for victory in both matches against Armenia and Montenegro. I think we are ready, certain moments from the matches against Poland and Italy give us the right to be optimistic. I believe in this group of players, the atmosphere in the team is excellent and I am sure that with the support of the fans in Bitola, we will show real energy and fighting spirit. We expect a victory at home, because we know how important the three points are to us in continuing the qualifications.”
