Telemach Elite League 1 to feature tripleheader on Sunday: action in Nova Gorica, Koper and Domžale
Both Saturday matches of the 2023 preliminary round took place in
Telemach First League
ended 2:1. Olimpija beat Bravo in Stožice, Celje defeated Mura in their own stadium . On Sunday, the First Telemach League will be interesting again, with three matches.
The two clubs fighting for survival will compete in Nova Gorica. In the renewed
Gorizia
will host
Radomlje
, who will be led from the bench by new coach Oliver Bogatinov for the first time ever. This will be the 11th league fixture between the two clubs, half of the previous 10 have been won by Gorica. Both Gorica and Radomlje are without a win for a long time. Roses were last celebrated on 10. last September, when they beat Tabor, then they played 11 games without a win Radomlje’s black streak is even a bit blacker. The Millers are winless in their last 17 games! The last time they won three points was on 29 July 2022… But interestingly enough, it was Gorica that they beat. Needless to say, this will be an extremely important match for the two clubs, which are tied on points.
The match between Gorica and Radomlje will start at 13. Alen Borošak will do the right thing.
Sunday’s second match will be a clash of old league rivals, Bonifiki will host
Koper
and
Maribor
. Both clubs have played 90. league matches, but the statistics are much more on Maribor’s side, with 41 wins and 21 defeats. Koper hasn’t lost in its last five home games, while Maribor finished the autumn part of the season in a remarkable fashion. Damir Krznar’ s side finished the autumn with five consecutive victories, including five goals against Mora, four against Tabor and seven against Radomlje.
“These are two teams that have big ambitions and are used to winning. We must not forget, and we have not forgotten, that we have had bad experiences with the Copra team in the season so far. We recorded two defeats in the autumn and have an extra motive to pay back,” says Maribor player Ivan Brnić, while Koper midfielder Andrej Kotnik, who will be watched by people from CFR Clu, added: “I think we have a good game ahead of us. We have our strengths, they have theirs. We have a plan, we will stick to it and focus on ourselves. That is the only way to get a good result.”
The match at Bonifiki will start at 15. Rade Obrenović will be the judge.
The first spring round will finish in
Domžale
, where the yellow family will host
Camp
. The favourite is clear, the club from Sežana is last in the standings, but it is also worth pointing out that in 2022 they won only once in away league matches! Currently, they are on a run of 14 away league games without a win. “Before the season, the camp certainly expected a different outcome in the autumn, but regardless, they have more than enough time to rise. I believe they will go into the game highly motivated, fresh, hungry for success, but we have to look at ourselves. The differences in the rankings are small. Five teams above, last three… Only a few points separate the teams, which is why I think every round will be tense. We have our own principles in the game and we will strive for that. For a start, I am definitely hoping for a positive result against Sežana,” says Domžale midfielder Zeni Husmani.
Tabor coach Dušan Kosić added: “Domžale have changed, but they have their own concept, which is close to coach Rozman. They have rejuvenated the team, they have gone back to basics, to what they had in the past. I am confident that we can successfully counter them.”
The match at Kamniški Bistrica will start at 17.30, Matej Jug will be the referee.
