Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, reflecting the teams’ closely matched form. Drenica has shown resilience at home, while Ferizaj will aim to build on its upset at Prishtina.

The match is organized by the Football Federation of Kosovo’s Superliga. Both teams are battling for positioning in the middle of the table, with playoff and relegation implications still possible depending on other results.
