Vardar vs Voska Prediction: Derby at the bottom of the table

On the football fields across N.Macedonia, the 28th round of the First Football League will be completed this afternoon. The match at the "Boris Trajkovski" stadium in Skopje, where Vardar will play against Voska Sport, attracts the most attention. Although Vardar are the most trophy-winning football team in Macedonia, in the last few years there were major financial problems that caused a result crisis that took them to the Second League. However, it seems that they stabilized a little and are on a good way to avoid relegation again.

The first Macedonian football league this season will offer a big fight for the title and an even bigger one for survival in the elite. In just six points, there are five clubs at the bottom of the table, in a race to avoid relegation and stay in the MFL. In that segment, Vardar plays new and new derby from round to round, this time a direct battle for survival against Voska Sport. The new club from Ohrid are one point behind the "red-blacks" in the table, and they are visiting the "Boris Trajkovski" stadium, where Vardar are the strongest. The song of the "Comites" has carried the team through the season, especially this spring when the numbers in the stands are great and the results are coming into place. Although Vardar have one win in the last five games, they still drew with Gostivar and Shkendija, while they convincingly lost only to Shkupi and beat the champion Struga. Voska, on the other hand, are in a crisis in the championship, waiting for a victory since the duel with Makedonia Gjorce Petrov on March 3rd, and since then they have drawn four times and lost twice.

During the week, the players of Voska Sport reached a historic success and reached the final of the Cup of Macedonia. Now Srdjan Zaharievski's boys return to their duties in the MFL and a difficult visit to Vardar awaits them. Reaching the final was the main objective of this team, and now they will do everything to win the final against Tikves, but they are aware that they might be relegated as they have recently been playing very badly in the league. They haven’t had a win in the league since the beginning of March, and today's away match against Vardar is one of the most difficult away matches in the league.

The previous league matches between Vardar and Voska ended with a celebration for Voska, but it seems to me that it is time for the most trophy-winning team to take the scalp of this opponent for the first time in the First League. The first match of the season was played in Ohrid and ended with a victory for Voska (3-2), the second was played in Skopje and again ended with a celebration for the team from Ohrid (1-2). Although there were goals in the first two matches, I don't expect too much from the scorers in this one, especially considering the importance of points, but I expect Vardar to win in front of their loyal fans.
