PMFL: Tikveš vs Bashkimi, Arsimi host Bregalnica — 11th round (Oct 25)

Two closing fixtures of the 11th round in North Macedonia's top-flight are scheduled for October 25, 2026, and both carry implications for the table at opposite ends.

At 12:00 in Gostivar, Arsimi host Bregalnica in a match between two sides that currently sit on 10 points each and are looking for a run of results to move away from the relegation battle. Neither team has shown consistent form recently, though Arsimi enter with a small advantage thanks to playing on home ground in Gostivar.

Match with promotion- and relegation-weight

At 14:00 in Kavadarci, Tikveš take on Bashkimi. There is little doubt which side goes into this tie as favorite: Tikveš are one of the surprises of the season and will have extra incentive — a win would give them 20 points and put them back in touch with the league leaders. The standings ahead of the round show Shkëndija on 24 points, Struga TL on 23 and Vardar on 21; Tikveš could move to just four points behind the leader with a victory.

Bashkimi should not be written off despite their status as underdogs. The Kumanovo side suffered a heavy home defeat to Sileks in their last outing, but one round earlier they produced a shock 2:1 victory over Struga TL.

Both encounters are expected to be entertaining and competitive as teams fight for points at both ends of the table.

TODAY — 11th ROUND
Gostivar: Arsimi – Bregalnica (12:00)
