Celje vs Maribor Live Stream, Predictions

📏 Form Guide

Celje

LLDDLL 📉

Celje will be looking to improve on their last outing here after the 3-1 PrvaLiga defeat in their last game at the hands of Domžale.

Under three goals per match were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Celje have been participants. In terms of the goal distribution in this period, opposition teams scored an aggregate of 7 while Grofje totted up 2. That kind of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this next game, however.

Going into this contest, Celje are without a home win in the past 6 league games. Things will have to change soon.

Maribor

Coming into this clash, Maribor are unbeaten in their last 7 away league matches.
