Today, the entire focus of the Macedonian football world is on the Petar Miloševski Complex in Skopje, where from 2:00 PM, the championship leader Vardar will welcome the defending champion Shkendija in the new 21st round.
Vardar is the leader and the host has a little more pressure on themselves, which is quite expected. Shkendija no longer has the burden of playing in Europe, so the Tetovo team can freely focus on their domestic duties.
One thing is certain: we will see good football in Skopje today. Primarily due to the fact that the two leading teams in the table are facing each other.
Vardar enters this battle after a shocking elimination in the Ohrid Cup and a draw against Struga TL in the championship on away field. The "red-black" camp says that after two matches without a triumph, it is time for Vardar to return to winning ways.
„"Today is a derby match that could decide the championship. We are preparing like we would for any other match. Additional motivation will not be needed, the Vardar jersey is motivation in itself for everyone. The opponent has been analyzed, we know who Shkendija is. We are maximally prepared and focused on their strengths and weaknesses, which we will try to use. After two difficult matches, the team is ready to return to winning ways and forget what happened before. Today, like in every match, we are going for victory, even though we are playing against a great team like Shkendija" - said Georgije Jankulov.
