Pelister welcomes Tikvesh in a match from the 11th round of the PMFL, and the circumstances make it possible for it to "shape" the fate of the two clubs that are threatened in the fight for survival.
The Bitola club has seven points, and the guests from Kavadarci have eight, but both teams are in the danger zone, along with Shkupi and Rabotnicki.
"For me, this is a special match because it will be the first time I will lead the team on home soil. Our goal must be the three points and a return to winning ways, because that is the only way we can survive in the elite league. Maybe the public sees favorites in us, we will try to justify that, but Tikvesh is not a team to be underestimated. They have a results crisis, they lost two matches in which they played well. They are especially dangerous in attack, but we believe that we can play at the required level and reach the desired goal. Some of the players have recovered from injuries, we have minor problems, but almost all of them are in competition for appearances and that will not be our weak point like in the previous matches," says Milan Stojanoski, who takes over the helm of the team after playing the 9th round.
Pelister won two of the three duels with Tikvesh last year, and has not lost to Kavadarci in Bitola in a championship match so far, but was defeated once in a Cup match. In a total of six PMFL matches, Bitola's team won twice, drew three times, and Tikvesh's only victory dates back to the duel in the 2021/22 season.
The match will start at 5:00 PM in Bitola.
