NK Aluminij Kidričevo come into this one with a mixed but usable home profile, having taken 15 points from 13 league games at this ground and scoring 19 times there. Their last home outing finished 1-1 with NK Maribor, but they had already beaten NK Celje 2-1 and put four past NK Fužinar Ravne in the cup, so there is enough going forward to support a home result. The bigger issue is that they have also conceded 24 home league goals, so this is not a fixture where a clean, controlled win is easy to promise.
Kalcer Radomlje’s away record gives more encouragement for the hosts. They have collected only 13 away points from 13 league trips and have lost six of those matches, while their current league form is four defeats in their last five. Their most recent away game ended in a 2-0 loss at NŠ Mura, and they also fell to NK Olimpija Ljubljana and NK Bravo in the run before that. A side carrying that kind of away pressure is not the sort you want to trust to hold up well in a tight Friday evening match.
The head-to-head record also leans toward Aluminij, even if it has been competitive. Aluminij have won three of the last five league meetings, including a 2-1 away win in January and a 2-1 home win in September 2025. That said, the same sequence also contains a 2-1 loss and a 1-1 draw, so the edge is about home advantage and recent venue form rather than any clear dominance. With both teams averaging close to a goal and a half per game in the league, a narrow scoreline feels more likely than a blowout.
Even with the slight tension from Radomlje’s ability to nick goals, the home angle is still the stronger one. Aluminij are unbeaten in their most recent league home game, while Radomlje arrive winless in five and with three straight league defeats before their latest trip. The away side’s 17 goals scored on the road across 13 league matches is modest, and their concession rate away from home leaves them vulnerable if Aluminij start well.
My prediction is Home Win at 1/1. Aluminij have the better home points return, Radomlje have lost six of 13 away league matches, and the visitors arrive with four defeats in their last five league games. The recent head-to-head also gives Aluminij a slight edge, with three wins in the last five meetings and two of those coming by a single goal.
