It seemed that Celje would easily walk to the title of national champion, but it is increasingly clear that the club from the princely city is struggling to find the right form at the beginning of the spring part of the season. Celje has won only once in the last four matches, and to make matters worse, in the next round of the Prva liga Telemach, they face the hot Maribor, which is currently in very good form. Despite his team’s poorer form, Damir Krznar is excited about the challenging schedule and is confident that his team will finally show its true face.
“Intense schedule and a tough lineup? I’m happy about that. I’m really happy about that! We are the team that is in the lead. We are the team leading the Prva liga Telemach standings. We want tough matches to stay focused and to show that when it’s tough, we really can do it. I believe we will show that on Saturday against Maribor,” emphatically stated Damir Krznar before the Styrian derby, who previously coached Maribor before moving to Celje.
The former coach of Dinamo from Zagreb also emphasized that it was unrealistic to expect Celje to stroll to the title of national champion. “If anyone thought we would stroll past any opponent, they were mistaken. Championships are won with hard work,” added Damir Krznar before the encounter with the giants from Ljudski vrt.
