After the first victory in the new season in the First Macedonian Football League against Sileks in Bitola, Pelister are waiting for a difficult visit to Tetovo and a match against Shkendija. After they won promotion last season, they were appointed by many as the main candidate to be relegated this season, however, after 3 rounds they have 4 points, a win, a draw, and a defeat. They showed some good performances, especially in the last round against Sileks, and they certainly won’t be very easy challenge.

The difference in the quality, organization, finances, and ambitions is very big between these teams. Shkendija are title contender while Pelister will give everything to avoid relegation. In their last 5 matches, Shkendija won 3, one Pelister, and one match ended in a draw. In this match, Shkendija will have big support from the stands, and from what we saw in the previous round against Brera when Shkendija easily won 2:0, we can expect another dominant performances and confident win for Shkendija.
