Match context and form guide
This clash at Stadion Tuško Polje on 10 December has all the ingredients for a tense First League encounter. Dečić arrive in Tuzi sitting third and enjoying the tangible comfort of home form: 16 goals scored at home and only 10 conceded, a pattern that underlines their attacking threat when backed by local support in a compact 2,000-capacity venue. Their recent sequence shows streaks of resilience — a mixture of wins and draws peppered with a few reversals — but the balance of results points to a side that tends to get the job done at home more often than not. Mladost DG, placed seventh, come with a mixed ledger away from home: just 8 goals scored on the road and 15 conceded, an away record that suggests vulnerability when they are forced to travel.
Dečić’s last outing ended in a 1-1 draw with Bokelj and before that a convincing 4-2 win over Arsenal Tivat, indicating an ability to both create and concede chances. Mladost DG’s most recent result was a goalless draw with Arsenal Tivat; defensively tidy in that instance, yet their away numbers over the season tell a different story. Across the campaign both sides have been prone to open games at times — Mladost’s overall shots and minutes on target are higher than Dečić’s — but context matters: Dečić’s home defensive record and the H2H early-season result (Dečić winning 2-1 away in October) tilt the scales.
Tactical snapshot and what to expect
Expect Dečić to take the initiative. Their home averages — more than 3 corners per match and an attack profile that generates over 80 attacks on average — are indicative of a side that will press to control tempo and create overloads in the final third. Mladost DG, while capable of spells of pressure and possessing a higher season shots total, have delivered fewer consistent defensive clean sheets away from home. That contrast suggests Dečić can both score and stifle Mladost enough to be decisive.
