The duel between Budućnosti and Sutjeska will mark the second round of the Meridianbet First Montenegrin Football League.
While Dečić, AdmiralBet and Mornar are still committed to European obligations, which is why their matches today - against Arsenal and Jezera - have been postponed for an indefinite period, the biggest Montenegrin derby will be played at the DG Arena, starting at 20 p.m.
After the first round, Budućnost has three points, because they beat Petrovac 2:1, and Sutjeska one, after a draw at home with Dečić.
BRNOVIĆ: WE FINALLY CREATED A TEAM WHERE EVERY PLAYER "DYES" FOR EVERY BALL
The people of Podgorica are in rhythm, after four European matches played, and one on the domestic stage.
- Sutjeska is coming, the biggest Montenegrin derby is being played, enough motivation for everyone. We are sorry that we are not playing at the stadium under Gorica. And Sutjeska opened the championship well, showed quality. We will look to ask ourselves, to win three points. The future has always had quality, but I think we have finally made a team where every player dies for every ball. This relationship has been shown in the previous matches and, if we continue at this pace, we will keep the audience, which has started coming to the stadium, and that is one of the most important tasks we will have this season. If we manage to do that, we will be able to unite everything and I am a great optimist for the future, we will go step by step - says Budućnosti coach Ivan Brnović.
Sutjeska hasn't played in Europe after a long time, compared to Buducnost, she is in a deficit with competitive matches, but that may not necessarily be a disadvantage.
- We have changed a large number of players and it will take us some time to get used to it. We are playing a derby, Buducnost is a good team, it won't be easy, but a derby is a derby and you never know - says Sutjeska captain, goalkeeper Vladan Giljen.
Nikšić's coach Miljan Radović thanked the fans, who watched the derby with Dečić in large numbers in the last round (1:1).
- The audience obviously recognized the youth, the sacrifice, the desire to win - I expect that this time as well. The future is in rhythm, as is Dečić, but the previous game meant something to us, where we could see that these boys are doing well - that they want to do the best at the given moment. I hope for a derby at a high level, I hope that everyone will enjoy it and that we will solve it in our favor - said Radović, who is not counting on the injured young national team member Dušan Vuković, nor on the insufficiently prepared Dragan Miranović.
KOTORANI WANT THE MAXIMUM AT THE START
