Sabah
WDDWDW 📈
Sabah, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following the 1-0 Premyer Liqasi triumph against Neftçi.
The only player to score from Sabah was Jesse Sekidika (64').
It’s been all too rare in recent times that Sabah have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Sabah have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, letting in 6 goals in the process.
Celje
DWDLWD
In the game prior to this, Celje drew 1-1 in the PrvaLiga match with Domžale.
The only scorer from Celje was Tamar Svetlin (69').
In their last half-dozen clashes, Celje have helped themselves to the sum of 16 goals. Celje have also managed to score in every single one of those games. In that time, they’ve had 7 goals go against them. In any event, it remains to be seen whether that trend might continue on in this next match.

Team News: Celje
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group of players, there is only the one fitness issue for the Celje gaffer Albert Riera to contend with. Armandas Kucys (Cruciate ligament tear) misses out for this game.
💡
Prediction
Our assessment is that Celje and Sabah could both find goals hard to come by here.
At this stage, it appears to have the makings of a possible draw. That is why we are leaning toward a very even match with a 0-0 scoreline at the end of the 90 minutes.
