Maribor host NK Celje on Wednesday, Apr 14 at 6:00 PM in a top-four clash that could have significant title implications. Both sides are separated by just 3 points in the Prva Liga, making this one of the more consequential fixtures of the season.

Maribor come into this fixture in good form (3W 2D 0L recently). NK Celje travel in mixed form (2W 2D 0L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Maribor face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. NK Celje have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Maribor a slight edge, but NK Celje are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
