Oltijon Kërnaja, Partizan's coach, gave his opinion before the match against Elbasan.

"We're going to win, to keep the position we have."

You are missing a three-game win...

"I believe that perhaps it is not as good a moment as we had thought. It is true that we are three games without a win, but let's not forget that we are also 9 games without a loss. I believe it is a normal moment within the objective that we have at the beginning of the season.

Can you repeat another victory in Elbasan?

"We will definitely try to do it again."

What is your concern on the eve of the match against Elbasan?

"We go to win, to maintain the position we have, what we have achieved with a lot of work and sweat so far. We only go for a positive result, it's not that we have any concerns. We may indeed have a lack of players, but others who have the ability are ready to give their best."

Confirmed absences?

"We have Martinez who has had surgery, Skukë who continues to suffer an injury and Atanaskoski who has completed his yellow card count."

The duel with Dinamo for fourth place?

"Everything is now at our feet. Before, it wasn't at our feet, but at the feet of others. I believe that with work and dedication like all the boys have given, with their heads down, their maximum on the field, we will manage to keep that place, why not even higher."
