Balkan coach Mislav Karoglan spoke before the derby match with Gjilan, which will be played on Sunday.
Karoglan said that the championship is long, and that they will take the matches one by one, as Balkan is currently leading the classification table in the Kosovo Super League.
"The team has worked well. We have had some minor problems with injuries and viruses, but overall everything has gone well and we are ready to compete again. The pressure for us is a privilege. The championship is a marathon and the only thing that matters is the next match, nothing more than that. The expectations are always the same for us. To be positive, to give our best against strong opponents and to aim for victory," he said.
The Super League Championship has returned this week with the 19th round, with three matches being played today, while two more will be played tomorrow.
Balkan will go to Gjilan, whom they have faced twice before this season.
Both matches ended with the same result, 1-1.
Balkan is first in the Super League table with 33 points collected from 18 matches, followed by Prishtina, Dukagjini and Drita./Express newspaper/
