On Thursday, the penultimate match of the 26th round of the Prva liga Telekom will be played, with Koper hosting Celje at Bonifika. The Styrians still lead the standings of the national championship, but it is also true that they have not won in their last three matches, with only one win in their last five games. The time seems ideal for a better performance, but Koper, after six consecutive home league matches without a victory, certainly has its own plans and ambitions.
The clash between the Primorje region team and the Styrian team will kick off at 16:45, with Aleksandar Matković in charge of the match. The game will certainly miss Jegor Prucev, a Celje player who has to rest due to accumulated yellow cards.
The clubs will play their 91st encounter in the national championship, and statistically, they are very evenly matched. Koper has won 36 times, Celje 30 times. Even the goal difference is very close – 125:117 in favor of Koper. Celje has won 11 times in 43 visits to Bonifika, the last time being a year ago. Koper has not won in their last three home matches against Celje, with their last victory dating back to April 10, 2022, when Lamin Colley scored two goals and Kaheem Parris scored one.
This will also be the last match of the 26th round in this month. The eternal derby between Olimpija and Maribor will only take place on April 17. The match was postponed due to renovation works on the pitch at Stožice.
