Form and standings can only tell part of the story when Čarda Martjanci and Videm cross paths in the 3. SNL - East, and pride alone should guarantee a contest.

Tuchel's subs, Rodri's rank, Messi's masterclass - World Cup highs & lows.

Wing play is likely to be central to the contest. Čarda Martjanci will look to stretch the pitch and isolate their wide attackers, while Videm must find a way to compress the space and choke the supply lines. And there are still question marks even in attack, where they have an abundance of supporting forwards including Mbeumo, Cunha and Amad Diallo, but only one out-and-out striker in Sesko.

Star players on both sides will be eager to make their mark, and the individual duels across the pitch could go a long way to deciding the outcome. Discipline at the back and sharpness in front of goal will likely tilt the balance one way or the other. In Bouaddi, Maresca has found himself a defensive midfielder with very few weaknesses, both a receiver and a carrier.

The fixture has the feel of a coin-flip, and picking a winner with any conviction would require a braver pundit than most. Expect a tight, competitive affair that could easily end all square at 3-3. With positions in the 3. SNL - East table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank. Joe Gomez is expected to miss the start of Liverpool's Premier League campaign through injury - but it is not likely to impact the Reds' transfer plans.
