Shkupi vs Pelister Prediction: Can Pelister get points in Skopje?

When Pelister are coming to Skopje, there are always tensions and provocations. In today’s match in Chair, Shkupi are the favorite despite the bad results recently, but Pelister are always specially motivated in Skopje, and a good result in this match will only relax them in the fight for survival and get closer to the middle of the table. I expect an interesting duel between two teams that are trying to find themselves in the second part of the season.

Shkupi suffered a big shock in the match of the 23rd round of the First Macedonian Football League and lost at home to the last placed Besa 1976 with 2-3 (1-2). The match was marked by beautiful goals and goalkeeping mistakes, and the triumph in the end went to the visiting players who are fighting hard for survival in the elite club. With this triumph, Gorazd Mihajlov's Besa "came to life" at least for a moment and reached a total of 18 points and remains in last position, but now they have equalized the points balance with the team from Tikvesh. Shkupi remains on 31 points and have not moved from sixth place in the table, but this team started the season with title ambitions, and these results only make their fans more furious. I expect much different Shkupi today against Pelister.

Pelister recorded a victory on the birthday of the club against Voska Sport (1-0), within the 22nd round of the First Macedonian Football League. The team from Bitola defeated the guest from Ohrid with the only goal of Filip Boskovski in the second half. But in the last round they suffered a similar kind of defeat when they lost 1:0 against Shkendija in Tetovo with a goal scored in the second half. Pelister are in seventh place with 26 points, five points less than today’s opponent Shkupi.

Expert Betting Tips

Pelister are certainly more satisfied with how this season goes. They are close to the middle of the table, out of the relegation zone, while Shkupi are far from satisfied with their results and the position they are in. Interestingly, Pelister haven’t won against Shkupi since 2017 and I think that today Pelister have a great chance to remain undefeated, or even to get all three points. Considering their last matches and head-to-head stats, I think it will be a tight match but both teams will score at least a goal each.
