Shkëndija (T) back on top after PMFL round 10
Following the 1:1 draw in Gostivar between Arsimi and Tikvesh, Shkëndija (T) lead with 23 points, three ahead of Struga TL and Vardar.
Round 10 of the Macedonian First Football League concluded on 19.10.2026 at 18:45 with the final fixture in Gostivar: Arsimi and Tikvesh played out a 1:1 draw, bringing the matchweek to an end.
That result left Shkëndija (T) back on top of the table after reclaiming first place just 24 hours after Struga TL had taken it. Shkëndija (T) sit on 23 points, three more than both Struga TL and Vardar, who share second place on 20 points.
The race at the summit now appears to be a three-way battle between the most recent title winners: Struga TL (champions in 2022/2023 and 2023/2024), Shkëndija (champions in 2024/2025) and Vardar (champions in 2025/2026).
Tikvesh follow in fourth with 17 points and are a side capable of disrupting the leaders’ plans. In fifth place is Shkëndija (A) with 14 points, while Sileks climbed to 13 after ending a two-month winless stretch with victory yesterday.
Bregalnica and Arsimi each have 10 points, Bashkimi sit on 7 and Skopje remain at the bottom with 3 points. Once again, the "Pirates" are the only team in the 10th round without a win.
