Partizan has not started this final phase of the championship in the right way, with the team having stopped at just two points in three matches as a result of 2-2 draws against Vora and Teuta and then a defeat at the "Arena e Demave", against Vllaznia with a score of 0-2.

These results have put the team under some pressure, especially when it is known that the competition this season is quite tough with the differences between the teams being minimal. In these stops of Partizan, Dinamo has been able to take advantage, which has reduced the difference with the Reds in the classification to just one point, from four points that it was until two weeks ago.

What has stood out for Partizan have been the problems in defense, repeated often throughout this season, problems that are mostly related to concentration in certain game situations, as the capital team has started to suffer from the standard shots that have been their strong point. However, despite the defense, the attack does not go without responsibility.

This is because in the last four goals scored by Partizan in these three weeks of the fourth phase, only one of them was scored by a striker. It is about the realization of Xhuliano Skuka against Teuta, while in the challenge with Vora Dumbia scored and then came an own goal by Vora, while the other goal against Teuta was scored by a defender like Altin Bytyçi.

Moving on to the match against Vllaznia, where Partizan, despite creating chances, was unable to score, thus highlighting the fact that the offensive unit and the names that make it up are not having the best possible moment, certainly influenced by the physical problems the players have had.

We recall that in the match with Vora e Vllaznia, Skuka was not present at all, while on the other hand, Vusal Isgandarli was also absent in two matches, in the one against Vora e Teuta. Meanwhile, in the last matches there has also been a "crash" with Seku Sidibe. The striker, who arrived in the January transfer window, started his adventure in the capital very well with the 17-time champions of Albania, scoring four goals in his first six matches between the championship and the Albanian Cup.

However, in the last five matches (four of them in the championship), he has been stopped and the opponents have been able to neutralize him, despite the fact that in the match against Vllaznia, the Belgian with origins in Ivory Coast had an ideal chance to return to the goal, but wasted it. On the other hand, Partizan has also suffered from the absence of David Fadairo as an extra alternative for the attack.

The player transferred from Teuta in January broke his hand in the match against Vora and is still out of action. Meanwhile, Toma and Contreras have not been able to do much in these matches, being too isolated and not having the same performance as in the first half of the season.

One more alternative for coach Oltijon Kërnaja will be Albers Keko, but the latter should be careful in the minutes given on the field, given that he has just returned from a serious injury.
