Slovakia, just like Montenegro, failed to reach the World Cup (they were eliminated in the play-off semi-finals by Kosovo), and in the first match in June, they only managed to beat Malta in extra time (2:1).
The Slovaks will be led for the last time by Stevan Jovetić's former teammate from Hertha, Peter Pekarik, who is saying goodbye to the national team right after the match with the "reds".
How dangerous Vladimir Weiss' team actually is in front of their fans is best demonstrated by the fact that they recently demolished the great Germany in the World Cup qualifiers.
"As always, I ask the guys to perform as well as possible on the field, regardless of the fact that the stadium will be full. We should get used to it and start getting used to good results. It's simple - we've learned that we're praised when we win, and that we're slandered when we lose. The most important thing is to stay grounded, because I repeat, even if we win this game tomorrow, the most important thing is to stay grounded and roll up our sleeves and work," said "Falcons" coach Mirko Vučinić for RTCG ahead of tomorrow's match.
Lance member Andrija Bulatović believes that Slovakia is a better rival than Bulgaria.
"We played a good game against Bulgaria, not just the second half, but the whole game. I am satisfied with how the team played and the most important thing is that we won and we are ready to welcome the game against Slovakia. That is, of course, a slightly better team than Bulgaria and we are entering the game to play it with maximum focus and dedication, and to go into the break with a win and to welcome the Nations League ready," said Bulatović.
