Due to the major All Saints' Day holiday, no county league matches will be played on Sunday, so the postponed fixtures have been moved to Saturday 31 October, kicking off at 14:00. Močile and Tehničar will meet at the Močile arena in a fifth-round Elite League match, while Ferdinandovac and Kalinovac will play an eighth-round fixture in Ferdinandovac.
The fifth-round match between Močile and Tehničar was postponed earlier because Močile player Stjepan Šantek was getting married, which meant the whole team was given the day off. The management of Močile and Tehničar agreed to the postponement, and the new date is now approaching.
Močile changed coaches after three consecutive defeats. Damir Bebek has been brought in to replace Alen Šimunić, and he will make his debut against the current Elite League champions, Tehničar from Cvetkovac. Bebek said they reached an agreement very quickly and that everything was settled on Monday, with their first joint training session taking place on Tuesday.
"We have a very difficult match coming up at the weekend, a sort of derby against Tehničar. I don't have much time to implement my ideas and we won't be able to rehearse too much," Bebek said. He added that a small results crisis had emerged and that his task is to lift the team, help them regain faith in their own abilities and pick up as many points as possible in the remaining four rounds so they can head into the winter break in peace. He also hopes for the opportunity for good, quality preparation in which he could stamp his mark and implement his ideas in play. For now, he says, he is very satisfied with the squad, attendance at training has been excellent, and the conditions at the club are great for work.
The second postponed match will be played in Ferdinandovac. Ferdinandovac is currently 13th in the table, second from bottom, with eight points, while Kalinovac is 11th with 10 points. Theoretically, Ferdinandovac could leapfrog Kalinovac, as well as Molve and Kloštar, to reach 10th place in the Elite League with a victory, and a potential win would also see Kalinovac climb the table. Prugovac has yet to pick up any points.
Kalinovac, for their part, travelled to North Macedonia to visit a friendly municipality, and the senior team went with them, so the eighth-round match could not be played.
Another match will be played ahead of schedule. This is the fixture between Osvit and Tomislav from Drnje, which was originally scheduled for the 13th round, the last of this autumn. By agreement between the clubs, this match will be played on Saturday morning, kicking off at Osvit's standard 10:00. Osvit is 10th in the table, while Drnje are top of the league.
