FK Radnički 1923 vs Partizan Beograd Prediction: The hosts looking to make history

As Radnički 1923 set to host Partizan at the Stadion Čika Dača on Sunday, they will look forward to getting a win over their visitors for the first time in their history. Previews, H2H, expert tips, and odds are provided below.

Radnički 1923

The current season for Radnički 1923 has been marked by disappointment, as they have faced a string of defeats in all three of their matches played so far. Despite showing promise during their unbeaten run of seven pre-season friendlies, where they secured five wins and two draws, their performance in official matches has taken a downturn.

Contrary to their pre-season form, Radnički 1923 stumbled at the start of the season with a 2-0 defeat against Novi Pazar. Following this, they suffered a 2-1 loss to Cukaricki and more recently, a 1-0 defeat against TSC. As a result of these setbacks, they find themselves at the bottom of the table alongside their sister club Radnicki Nis.

Their current standing paints a grim picture, with no points to their name, having conceded five goals and only managed to score one in the three games they've played so far. This unexpected turn of events contrasts sharply with the optimism that was initially fueled by their successful pre-season performance.

Partizan

Partizan's league campaign has commenced with a solid undefeated record, beginning with a thrilling 3-3 draw against TSC. Building on this, they secured a victory over Vojvodina and followed it up with a 2-1 win against Radnicki Nis. While they did suffer a setback with a 2-0 loss to Sabah Baku in the Conference League qualification playoff first leg in Azerbaijan, their focus remains steadfast on their domestic matches.

In the Serbian SuperLiga, Partizan currently occupy the 3rd position on the table, having accumulated 7 points from their 3 games played. Impressively, they have found the back of the net 7 times while conceding 4 goals. With their strong start and formidable presence in the league, they are well-poised to maintain their unbeaten streak.

H2H

In the span from 2002 to the present, these two teams have faced each other on 14 occasions, with Partizan maintaining an unblemished record in these encounters. Out of these matches, Partizan emerged victorious in 13 and the remaining one ended in a draw. The most recent encounter saw Partizan secure a 2-1 win over their opponent. This track record underscores Partizan's dominant performance against their counterpart in their recent history of matchups.
