At 3 PM, the 155th eternal derby will begin at Ljudski vrt in the Styrian capital. Maribor will host Olimpija, and the match will kick off at Ljudski vrt at 3 PM. Ante Šimundža and his team will try to use the game against the old rival to at least somewhat approach the title race before the end of autumn. However, if Olimpija were to win, their lead over Maribor would be 12 points!
“Olimpija is on a positive streak and continues to grow. It’s evident that the coach has succeeded in achieving the primary goal – improving the defense, which is now performing well. However, there’s still a lot of room for improvement. I see Olimpija having an advantage here; they are not yet at full throttle and can continue progressing. The pressure will certainly be greater on Maribor,” emphasized Nejc Vidmar for Šport TV ahead of the eternal derby. Vidmar has a wealth of experience with eternal derbies.
However, eternal derbies are already in the past for him; the former captain of Olimpija bid farewell to serious football playing. Currently, Nejc Vidmar is registered for Slovan, which competes in 3. SNL, but he last played on September 23.
