Zeljeznicar’s luck continues in Bosnian Premier League. Until two weeks ago, when Zeljo had an away draw against Zrinjski, Zeljo had not lost any points in the second half of the season. But, the biggest luck was that the rival teams have lost unexpected points in the competition. To be honest, we have to say that Zeljo plays well, and scores nicely, but Borac’s and Sarajevo’s break off from the championship struggle and the increasing gap of points between Şiroki Brijeg and Zeljo, were more as a result of the losses of those three teams than Zeljo’s victories.

Slavija, who has been at the bottom of Bosnian Premier League since the beginning of the season is showing a sort of revival in recent weeks and had succeeded to defeat Şiroki Brijeg with 2-0 in home match, which made the difference between Şiroki and Zeljo’s points to be seven. Slavija scored the first goal at 31st minute n the first half. In the second half spectators watched a team of struggle which are lead by Karamtiç and Todoroviç. The second goal was scored by Todoroviç at 63th minute and defining the result of the match.

Leader Zeljo had an easy victory over Zvijezda in away match in Gradaçac, with Beşlija’s one and Selimoviç’s two goals assisted by Zeba, who was selected as the man of the match.

Kozara, who could not resist against Çelik in away match had settled at the bottom of the Bosnian Premier League when Slavija had a victory over Şiroki Brijeg. Since Leotar and Travnik could not gain points this week, Slavija’s hope to stay in Premier League had increased a bit, while there are seven weeks left until end of the season.

Due to heavy rain in Mostar, with the decision of the refreen at 27th minute, Velez- Rudar match is postponed to be played on April 18, Wednesday.
