MSK Tesla Stropkov vs Humenné: match preview on 2 September 2026

MSK Tesla Stropkov to win. They have won four of their last five matches, scored 22 goals and conceded only eight, and beat Humenné 3:1 in a friendly just over a month ago. Humenné have dropped points in two of their last five games and look vulnerable at the back.

Stropkov's run includes a 6:1 victory away at Cicarovce in the Cup on 19 August, a 4:2 win at Poprad, and a 7:2 triumph over OFK Slovenská Ľupča. They went unbeaten in those five outings, picking up 13 points from four victories and one draw against Liptovský Mikuláš. The only blemish was a 2:2 home draw in October 2025.

Humenné's form tells a different story. Three wins and two defeats in their last five games, but only four goals scored against five conceded. Their most recent outing was a 0:1 loss away to Baník Lehota p.Vtáčnikom in the 2. Liga on 29 August. They have also lost 0:3 away to Slovan Bratislava II. The side scored a third of their goals in the final 15 minutes of matches.

The head-to-head record does not favour Humenné at Stropkov. Their last meeting on 4 July ended 3:1 to the hosts in a friendly. Before that, Humenné drew 3:3 at home in July 2025, and their only win came in January 2022 with a 7:2 victory. V. Matas carries a red card from 29 August and sits one booking short of a suspension, which could leave Humenné short in midfield.

Stropkov to win 2:0. The hosts have scored 22 goals in their last five matches and Humenné have struggled to score away from home.
