2. SNL
Team Comparison
Rudar
Krka
Match Preview
The 2. SNL returns to the home ground on August 14, 2026, where Rudar and Krka will lock horns in a contest that could shape their respective campaigns. Tottenham face Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday.
Both camps will view the 2. SNL meeting at the home ground as an opportunity to put a marker down, regardless of where they currently stand. It has been a solid if unspectacular run for the hosts — W across their last five with a win rate of 57.14% — and they will want to push on from here. Krka have struggled to string results together away from home, LW over their last five with a win rate of 28.57%. The contrast in attacking output — 2.14 versus 1.14 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. On Wednesday night, Infantino was given the "full support" of FIFA's management board in a statement despite being forced to abandon his plan to sell stakes in a company to run the World Cup to private investors.
How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. Rudar will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Krka will back themselves to cause problems on the break. The winner came from a rare counter-attack by the new-look Spurs side, who defended well throughout with Andy Robertson making his first start and Jan Paul van Hecke on debut, as they battled to secure another win in pre-season.
Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena.

The market has yet to form a strong view, and the contest looks genuinely difficult to call. With the sides so closely matched, a 2-2 stalemate looks the most likely way this one ends. With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. Harry Kane is the favourite to win the Ballon d’Or.
