Radnik Surdulica vs Macva - Super Liga

A fascinating Super Liga chapter awaits on August 15, 2026 when Radnik Surdulica take on Macva at EFBET Stadion — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. The left-back was taken off in the final minutes against Everton with cramp, and was not risked for the Champions League clash vs Sabah on Thursday.

Both Radnik Surdulica and Macva will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Super Liga. The hosts have mirrored the form of a side still searching for rhythm — DDDWL over their last five, a win rate of 33.33%. Macva are searching for answers away from home, L over their last five with a campaign win rate of 22.22%. Their respective approaches this season have differed noticeably, and the tactical contrast could prove telling. Dusan Vlahovic followed up his hat-trick on Monday by completing the comeback to leave Fenerbahce four points behind Galatasaray, who snatched a late winner at Basaksehir on Friday.

Stylistically, this is a compelling matchup. Radnik Surdulica favour a patient, possession-based approach, whereas Macva are at their most dangerous when allowed to hit quickly on the counter. Schalke had only 17 per cent of the possession but, having visited the club to interview their charismatic coach Miron Muslic, that is hardly a surprise.

All eyes will be on the league's leading marksman D. Zukić, whose 5 goals this season make him the standout threat and a player capable of deciding the outcome on his own. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. He also played predominantly as a right winger or shadow striker for Juve.

Without the market to lean on, the contest feels genuinely open — and the outcome may come down to which side handles the occasion better. A share of the spoils looks the most probable outcome, with neither side holding a decisive edge — a 1-1 draw feels like a fitting result. The result at EFBET Stadion could resonate well beyond matchday in the Super Liga picture. The club are understood to favour a profile closer to Aurelien Tchouameni or a Premier League‑proven alternative rather than Manu Kone.
