Key Statistics and Trends
- Flora: They have won only once in their last 4 home matches.
- Celje: They have also won only once in their last 4 matches, mostly control games.
Team Analysis
- Flora: Known as "The Green and Whites," Flora have had a noticeable drop in their domestic performance. They won their fourth title in 5 recent cycles in 2023. However, Levadia is already ahead by 15 points, so Flora will likely focus on securing the silver medals after losing the head-to-head match last Thursday. It is crucial for the Estonian club to perform well in European competitions, having reached the group stage of the Conference League in 2021.
- Celje: Known as "The Grofje," Celje has significantly improved in recent years, starting with their debut championship in 2020. They repeated their success last season after finishing second previously. This made them a regular participant in European competitions, although they have struggled to progress. They surprised many by eliminating Vitoria Guimaraes and Neman in last year’s Conference League qualification before losing to Maccabi Tel Aviv.
