Vojvodina and Spartak chasing first victory

Vojvodina i Spartak u lovu na prvu pobedu

Spartak Vojput

Serbian derby in SEHA Gazprom League will be a perfect chance for both teams - Vojvodina and Spartak, to break negative records and reach first victory in regional competition. Home team will be looking for a triumph after defeat against NEXE at home in the last round (24:26) which puts a bit of weight on Nikola Marković and his players’ shoulders considering the fact that Spartak are a team which they have managed to beat easily last season in both Serbian Play-Off and domestic Cup. Match is scheduled for Wednesday, 19.30 CET.

Nikola Marković, Vojvodina’s coach:

We are absolute favorites against Spartak Vojput and we expect three points. We know them and have absolutely nothing to hide. We wll play in front of our fans and we need a good performance to raise our confidence ahead of challenges waiting for us.

Zoran Nikolić, Vojvodina’s player:

I can say we have an imperative for victory. We are Serbian champions and we know the team from Subotica very well. I expect us to play a good game, better than in previous rounds. Victory is the only thing which interests us from this match. I also hope our fans will be there to support us.

Branislav Zeljković, Spartak Vojput’s coach:

We are going to play against the team who isn't too much better than us, which give us a chance to play normally without pressure. It's time to start playing like we can. We still haven’t caught our best form but I believe we’ll find strength and motive to play good match on Wednesday. They aren’t in best form either but they will play at home. Most important thing for us is to restore self-confidence and make the whole atmosphere in the team better. We will play without injured Davor Basarić but our goal is to play better in defence than in previous matches and make less technical mistakes.

Veselin Jelić, Spartak Vojput’s player:

I expect my team to be fully devoted. The match will be tough as all we’ve played against Vojvodina. It will be a tough narrow match and in case we manage to play on our best level we’ll surely have a chance to take home some points.
