Bashkimi are still without a point in the new First League season after suffering two heavy defeats in the opening two rounds. Having conceded 11 goals and scored none, the club from Kumanovo made a poor start, but the team believe that the changes to the coaching staff and the arrival of the new head coach, Shaban Sulejmani, will set things on a positive path.
Kumanovo’s next opponents are Arsimi, who are also without a point after the opening rounds, with a goal difference of nine conceded and one scored. Ahead of this encounter, footballer Hebib Saiti said that he expects better days for his team in the remainder of the championship.
„Matches against Arsimi always have a brotherly atmosphere, but both teams give their maximum on the pitch. We will do everything to win all three points, or at the very least return from Gostivar with at least one point,“ said Saiti.
Incidentally, these two teams have played a total of 11 matches against each other so far, with the home side Arsimi winning five, Bashkimi recording three victories, while three matches ended in draws.
The match between Arsimi and Bashkimi will be played at the stadium in Gostivar, kicking off at 16:30.
