Bashkimi are chasing a new victory in the 10th round of the First Macedonian Football League, where they will face Sileks at home. The Kumanovo side enter this duel highly motivated after their important 2:1 triumph over Struga Trim Lum in the previous round – a match that also marked a successful debut for the new head coach, Muarem Muarem. Bashkimi are now seeking a second consecutive victory in front of their home fans and their third overall this season.
„This is an exceptionally important match for us to continue our positive run. We strongly believe in our quality and, with the support of our fantastic fans, I am convinced that we will succeed and that all three points will remain in Kumanovo,“ said Besjan Aliu.
With their victory over the reigning champions Struga Trim Lum, Bashkimi ended a run of four matches without a triumph. Sileks, on the other hand, enter this clash in poor form, with three defeats and three draws in their last three rounds, or six matches without a victory in total.
This will be the 26th duel between Bashkimi and Sileks. History is on the side of the Kratovo team, who have 14 victories, while Bashkimi have recorded 7 triumphs and 4 matches have ended in a draw.
The match will be played at the stadium in Kumanovo, starting at 12:00. Stojanche Trpchevski will be the main referee for this top-flight clash.
