Novi Pazar

After the January break, the hosts have played three matches and have already won, lost, and drawn. At first, the club unexpectedly lost to one of the main outsiders, Textilac (2:3). After that, they managed to beat Unity (1-0), which occupies the last place, on the road, and on February 17, Novi Pazar shared the points with Chukariki (1-1).

TSC Backa Topola

Current form
Bachka Topola managed to qualify for the Conference League playoffs, finishing 24th in the standings and last in the playoff zone. Nevertheless, at the very first stage, the guests were eliminated by the Polish Jagiellonia, losing both matches with the same score 1:3. Things are not going well for the guests in the Serbian championship either. After finishing third in the last draw, Bachka Topola unexpectedly dropped to the bottom half of the standings and now occupies only 11th place. However, Jovan Damjanovic's team is only two points behind eighth place. In February, the team has only lost so far - in three rounds, the team lost to Crvena Zvezda (1:2), Mladosti (1:4) and Textilac (1:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
The guests have no problems with the line-up on the eve of the 24th round.
Interesting betting trends
- The team has lost five matches in a row
- In each of the last five matches, the guests scored one goal.

1.63Tip and bets
The guests are stronger than today's opponent in terms of composition, but lately nothing has been working out for Bachka Topola both in the European arena and in the domestic championship. The players are probably in a depressed state right now, which Novi Pazar can take advantage of. We believe that the hosts have a good chance of winning this match.
Our forecast is the Asian handicap (0) for Novi Pazar in 2.20
Bet on the total
The opponents have conceded quite a lot in recent matches, but they themselves have scored little. Problems with the realization of scoring chances are unlikely to stop in a face-to-face match, so you can hardly expect high performance from the clubs. Most likely, one or two goals scored will decide the fate of the confrontation.
Our forecast is a total of less than 2.5 goals in 1.93
The first half bet
We do not expect that the opponents will move forward with great strength immediately after the kickoff. It will obviously take time to take a closer look at each other. In this scenario, a draw is likely based on the results of the first half.
Our forecast is a draw in the first half at 2.20
