Tikves vs Shkendija Prediction: Can Tikvesh stand in the way of Shkendija?

Shkendia are the first and only follower of the leading duo in the PMFL table. Tetovcani are keeping pace with Struga and Shkupi, and in this 28th round, they are expecting an away match against Tikvesh. It will be a difficult match, Tikvesh are in euphoria after they reach the final of the national Cup, and today a full stadium awaits Shkendija in Kavadarci.

Kavadarci is in euphoria, there they are still celebrating the historic placement in the grand final of the Cup of North Macedonia. In Tikves, all thoughts are now focused on May 22 and that final with Voska. But everyone in the club wants to finish the championship in MFL in style, they want to show today against Shkendija that Tikvesh knows how to play good football. Tikves are in 5th place with 36 points.

The manager of Shkendija, Jeton Beqiri, says that now the key phase of the championship begins and he expects the best editions from his players, but he also warned that Tikves are not at all a naive rival. The former champion of Macedonia is in the game for the title and will lead a fierce battle to the end with Shkupi and Struga, which have one and three points more than Tetovci. Shkendija after a bad period earlier this season now are back in the title race and in the last round, they destroyed Sileks at home 6:1. 

Shkendija won in 4 of their last 5 head to head matches against Tikves. However, Tikves also lifted their form and last week's win in the semifinal of the Cup threw the whole city in celebration since it’s their first Cup final. The euphoria and cheering are all over the city, a full stadium is expected today in Kavadarci. I think that Shkendija have enough experience in such difficult matches and that they will manage to take all 3 points in today’s difficult match.
