Slovenia lost only once in last seven games. After six clashes the Slovenians occupy the third place in the Group F with 11 points taken and 6-3 goal difference being three points behind England and one point below Slovakia. Srecko Katanec's team not always succeeds at away turfs, for instance, having got 0:1 defeat to Scotland, 2:2 draw against Lithuania and humble 1:0 triumph over Malta in this cycle.
It should be noted that the Slovenians have been broken by the Slovaks not a single time in their history recording one draw and three victories in their favour including 1:0 win at the home field in the first lap. The forthcoming battle can be confidently named the crucial one for both opponents in this Qualification as the loss will make the promotion to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia more complicated for the head-to-head looser. Even though, historically, the Slovaks stay unlucky in their clashes against the Slovenians, they have great chances to pick up points in face of their fans, bearing in mind Slovenia's statistics on the road.
Prediction for the match: Slovakia to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
