Celje inaugurated their new season with a draw against Aluminij, yet their true capabilities became resoundingly evident in their subsequent league clash against Mura, resulting in an impressive 5-0 triumph.

Rogaska's inaugural venture into the Prva League has encountered a stumbling block, as they've faced defeat in their initial two league matches of the season. It's worth noting that they were pitted against formidable opponents. In their opening fixture of the season, they suffered a 2-0 loss against NK Bravo. Their subsequent encounter, however, proved to be a significant setback, as they were overwhelmed and outclassed by Ljubljana, concluding with a resounding 5-0 defeat.

Expert Betting Tips

Rogaska has grappled with challenges in establishing a solid foothold since its advent in the Prva League season. Their recent encounter with Ljubljana concluded in a disheartening defeat, further highlighting their struggles. In stark contrast, Celje has consistently displayed its prowess through an impressive streak in the new season. Given this prevailing context, it appears unlikely that Rogaska can match the strength and capabilities of Celje. Our prediction distinctly leans towards a victory for Celje.

It's noteworthy that Celje notably scored 5 goals against Mura in their previous league match, contributing to their impressive performance. Across two games this season, they have managed to tally over 7 goals. Consequently, it is expected that Celje will continue their goal-scoring momentum, likely netting a minimum of 2 goals in their upcoming Sunday fixture.
