NK Domzale vs NK Olimpija Ljubljana Prediction: Olimpija Ljubljana to win

The Slovenia 1. Liga presents a fascinating clash between Domžale and NK Olimpija Ljubljana, two teams with contrasting forms and ambitions. Domžale has struggled this season, particularly at home, where they have lost four of their last six games. Their attack has been underwhelming, averaging just 0.5 goals per game at home, while conceding 1.0 goals per game. However, they will be eager to turn things around against Olimpija, a side they have historically found challenging.

NK Olimpija Ljubljana, on the other hand, has been solid both defensively and offensively. With an average of 1.3 goals scored and only 0.5 conceded per game away from home, they pose a significant challenge for Domžale. Their recent victories, including a 3-0 win over NK Nafta, highlight their attacking potential. Given their strong defensive record, Olimpija will look to control the game and secure another crucial three points.

NK Domzale

Domzale is capable of holding possession in midfield but struggles to convert chances. They managed a 0-0 draw against Olimpija in their last home game against them, showing they can frustrate stronger teams. Domzale has defensive resilience in certain games, allowing only 1.0 goals per match at home despite poor overall form.

Domzale has a poor home form, with four losses in their last six matches and lacks a goal-scoring threat, averaging only 0.5 goals per game at home. Domzale struggles against Olimpija historically, with a 0-3 loss in their last meeting and four straight defeats against them.

NK Olimpija Ljubljana

Olimpija has a strong away record, averaging 1.3 goals scored and only 0.5 conceded per match. Olimpija is defensively disciplined, keeping multiple clean sheets in recent matches. Olimpija gained a victory over NK Nafta and a 2-1 win against FC Koper, showing attacking efficiency. Midfield control allows them to dictate tempo and stifle weaker opponents.

Sometimes, Olimpija lacks creativity against deep-lying defenses.

Expert Betting Tips

Domžale’s lack of attacking firepower makes it unlikely for them to score. Olimpija’s strong defence also decreases BTTS's chances. Olimpija’s attacking form suggests they can score at least two goals, but whether Domžale contributes remains uncertain.
