In the Prva liga Telemach on Saturday, we will witness the battle for survival, and on Sunday, there’s another showdown for the second spot on the table. Following their victory in the last eternal derby, Maribor currently holds that position, and they’ll be visiting Koper this time. Olimpija will be rooting for the Primorci to have a good day, while at home, they’ll attempt to defeat the club with whom they’ll share a stadium next season. Marcel Ratnik emphasizes that the Dragons’ goal is simply victory, but still warns that Bravo will definitely be a dangerous opponent.
“Bravo is fighting for fourth place, and they will be motivated as well. Europe brings something more to everyone, especially for Bravo, it would be something historic, so we must expect a real match. Carefulness, focus. It will have to be at its peak throughout the entire game,” Marcel Ratnik stated for the club’s website. Bravo is currently fifth, and the fourth spot could lead to Europe, if for whatever reason, a cup ticket remains unutilized.
“We’ve worked hard in the last week because we want to end the season with a victory. We want to respond after the derby loss and aim for three points. We want to finish the championship on a positive note. There are no excuses this time. We trust the coaching staff currently leading the team, and at the same time, we know what we need to do to succeed. I believe we are well-prepared for the last game of the season,” Marcel Ratnik added before the match against the Šiškarji. This might be Ratnik’s last game for Olimpija… It’s no secret that the young defender is a target for many clubs, and Olimpija will undoubtedly receive several offers for him this summer.
