Decic and Petrovac played out a 1:1 draw in the First League on Wednesday evening, a result that leaves the hosts top of the table while the visitors remain in seventh. The match was played at Decic's ground on 9 September 2026, and neither side had much to celebrate after ninety minutes. To be fair, both teams had chances but failed to find a winner.
The first half ended with Decic ahead after a goal in the 44th minute, though the scorer was not named in the data. That goal came with a yellow card for Decic, and Petrovac had already picked up a booking in the 28th minute. By then the visitors had been on the back foot, trying to get a foothold in the game.
Petrovac struck back almost immediately. T. Selimi scored in the 47th minute to level things up, and the momentum shifted. Decic had a yellow card in the 54th minute as they tried to hold on, but the home side could not pull away. And here's the thing — the game was decided in those opening forty-seven minutes.
Decic dominated possession at 46 per cent but managed only two shots on target from four attempts. Petrovac had 54 per cent of the ball and tested the home keeper four times, with two shots going wide. The visitors launched 152 attacks compared to Decic's 109, yet they could not carve them open. They had the deeper squad on paper, but Decic were more clinical.
Our prediction of a home win did not come off. We gave Decic 39 per cent confidence, but Petrovac's efficiency with their chances — and Decic's inability to put the game to bed after going ahead — changed the outcome. One mistake ends it, and Decic could not afford another slip.
The result keeps Decic at the summit with 13 points from six games, four wins, a draw and a loss. Petrovac sit seventh with seven points from one win, four draws and a defeat. The hosts have not won since their last defeat, while the visitors cannot afford another slip if they want to climb.
