TEAM NEWS
As team captain Svetozar Markovic signed for Viktoria Plzen, armband has been allocated to keeper Aleksandar Jovanovic. Partizan boss Aleksandar Stanojevic serves one-game suspension after being sent-off in a last Partizan SSL outing.
Aleksandar Stanojevic ahead of Vojvodina match:
-It`s insane to talk about motivation although it`s hard to play after European encounter, whatever the outcome. Vojvodina did a great job over summer transfer window but they seem to have problems too. But, we are Partizan and if we are not ready for everything thrown at us, then we have a lack of character. We need to show tomorrow how ready we are to battle this. It`s a good test for us – we can see where we are and who is ready to battle ahead of the international break.
The mood around is not important. What matters is to have professional and motivated player. We don`t care about anything else but them being fully committed to the training sessions.
Vojvodina failed to bounce back after European exit while we did well in the league, apart from the infamous IMT game. Vojvodina is a really good side, they played excellent football against Ajax and Maribor but they were unfortunate to lose both ties followed by a setback on domestic scene. Regarding quality, I`m convinced they are among top three teams in the league.
