NK Aluminij Kidričevo and NK Maribor shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw. Aluminij struck in the early stage of the second half at 00:46:42 to take the lead, and Maribor equalised late with a second-half finish at 01:30:48.

Aluminij earned five yellow cards to Maribor’s three, with no red cards shown for either side. The fouling totals were 23 for Aluminij and 27 for Maribor, indicating the visitors engaged more frequently in challenging actions.

Set-piece activity was modest, with Maribor earning four corners to Aluminij’s three. Maribor also recorded more offsides (four to one), suggesting a more aggressive attacking approach that sometimes overran the last line.

From a defensive standpoint, neither side kept a clean sheet, and the absence of red cards implies disciplinary control overall. Maribor’s higher foul count paired with more offsides signals they applied sustained pressure, but at times at the expense of final-pass execution.

Tactically, Maribor appeared to push a higher tempo and exploit movements in behind Aluminij’s back line, as indicated by the offsides and corner tally. Aluminij’s discipline issues and compact shape restricted proceedings for large periods, but they were unable to sustain their lead.

For bettors, the two-goal outcome means an under-2.5 angle would have paid off; the 1-1 scoreline aligns with a balanced second half between the sides. The data also flags Maribor's willingness to press and create chances via runs behind the defense, while Aluminij will need to reduce yellow-card exposure if they want to compete more effectively in future meetings.
