H2H: North Macedonia vs. Slovenia – Score prediction (10.10.2019)

Overview.

Slovenia ended a nine-game winless run in style by winning their last three matches in a row. Impressively, they shut out the opposition in two of those wins, and scored two or more goals in all three victories. Additionally, all three wins saw them score between the 30th – 45th minute. Whilst there has been improvement in recent games, Slovenia still don’t boast a great defensive record – they have managed just two clean sheets across their previous 12 matches. This has contributed to both teams scoring in seven of those 12 fixtures.

North Macedonia come into this game having won just one of their previous five matches. Whilst they have kept just one clean sheet across that period, they still have a decent defensive record which has seen them concede under 1.5 goals in seven of their previous eight fixtures. This has contributed to five of those fixtures producing two match goals or less. The hosts boast a pretty good record in attack, finding the net in 11 of their previous 13 fixtures, However to get a win here, it seems grabbing the game’s first goal will prove decisive. That’s because North Macedonia have secured victory in ten of the previous 11 matches in which they netted the opener.
