While the top-tier teams have already played three matches, the teams from the 2. SNL have been preparing for the 2024/25 season. Starting today, their league begins with the opening match between Ilirija and Triglav. This will be followed by a Styrian derby between Aluminij and Bistrica, and ending the final working day of the week, Krka will face Slovan, which returns to the second tier after the 1996/97 season.
Ilirija, which narrowly avoided relegation in the last season’s final match, will play their opening game at home against former top-flight team Triglav. Triglav has introduced numerous new players during this transfer window, signaling a clear plan and ambition to fight for the top spot this season.
Last season’s top-tier team Aluminij will start the season away against Bistrica, which has settled well in the second tier over the past two seasons, finishing 9th in their first season and 7th last year. The “Šumarji” were also quite active in the transfer window. Although some key players from last season have left, the red-and-white team has welcomed 11 new players.
In the new season, Slovan returns to the second tier after 28 years, having shown ambition last season by securing promotion to the second-highest level of competition. Their first-round match will be away against Krka from Novo mesto, which had an unconvincing season last year, finishing 13th.
