Sileks vs Vardar Prediction: Derby in Kratovo

The big derby between Sileks and Vardar will be played in Kratovo, where the imperative for the three points is of capital importance. Vardar, who knocked Sileks out of the Macedonian Cup, is also motivated for three points in Kratovo, but on the other hand, Sileks are a tough opponent at home, where Aleksandar Vasoski's team wants three points if they want to bring the title to Kratovo. This will be more than an attractive derby and there will be more than a big fight on the field for the three points.

Sileks

Form: WWLLD

After two setbacks at the start of the spring season in the First Macedonian Football League, Sileks have tied two wins and after "smashing" the champion Struga Trim Lum (3-1) in the 21st round, last week they celebrated with a convincing 0-5 (0-3) away win in Gostivar against Besa. Kratovo’s team once again played as their coach Aleksandar Vasoski wishes, and the attackers were especially commendable, who showed almost one hundred percent conversion in that match. Almost all strikers and attacking midfielders scored, Bosnian internationals Alic and Hrvanovic, Marong, Ilija Donov and the former youth national team player of Macedonia, Marko Gjorgievski. Sileks are in second place with 44 points, two points behind the leader.

Vardar

Form: WDWWL

Vardar continued their three-match unbeaten streak in the spring part of the First Macedonian Football League. The team won the three points in the city derby against Rabotnicki (2-0) and thus escaped from the danger zone that leads to a lower rank. Under the leadership of Goce Sedloski, with the new reinforcements, this is a different Vardar. The team defeated one of the best teams in the First League during the fall and shows that their place is not in the lower part of the table. Two goals decided the match, and one goal was scored in the first and second half. The defender of Skopje Vardar, Mislav Matic, expressed great satisfaction with the victory over Rabotnicki and announced that the most trophy-winning team will yet show their strength in the domestic championship.

Matches between these teams are always interesting and in the focus of the public, mostly because of the previous political views, and intriguing owners. Sileks are a title contender, while Vardar are fighting for survival, usually it was the other way around, but the tables turned.
