NK Olimpija Ljuljana vs NK Domzale Prediction: Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals in this game

Game Week 22 of the 2023-2024 season of the Slovenia 1 SNL will see Olimpija host Domžale in what looks to be an exciting clash in the heart of Ljubljana, under the towering shadow of Stadion Stožice. With the match scheduled to begin on February 21 at 17:00 (GMT+3), fans will be expecting a game highly favouring the home side as evidenced by their superior season record.

With an average total goal total of 3.13 per game, both sides are no strangers to goal fests, so fans hoping for nonstop excitement won't be disappointed by this matchup. Both teams' defences have been exposed in previous fixtures; Olimpija has given up 1.15 xG on average at home, while Domōale has given up 1.58 xG on average away from home. Olimpija's home team's higher xG of 2.31 compared to Domžale's away xG of 1.55 suggests a bigger attacking advantage that may be crucial in breaching the visitors' defences. But Domžale shouldn't be written out completely.

Both clubs should be able to add goals to the score in this showdown at Stadion Stožice. Olimpija is the home team and the clear favourite going into the game, but Domžale's will and the chance of goals, corners, and maybe even cards make for an exciting spectacle that may go anyway.

NK Olimpija Ljuljana

Olimpija Ljubljana, who defeated Radomlje 1-3 in PrvaLiga, will be looking to replicate their previous performance. Marin and Motika scored the goals for Olimpija Ljubljana.

There isn't much of an issue with availability; the Olimpija Ljubljana coach has only one fitness worry out of an otherwise fully-fit team. Matevz Vidovsek is out due to an injury to his shoulder.

NK Domzale

Since a losing effort in their last game against Rogaska in PrvaLiga action, Domžale and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. Mijić scored a double for Rogaska.

Proving their fondness for fruitful encounters, the back of the net has been hit 21 times in the prior 6 matches in which Domžale have played, giving a mean average of 3.5 goals per meeting.
