The upcoming match between Čukarički and Partizan is scheduled for Sunday at 4 PM on Banovo Brdo Stadium. In the first two encounters, Čukarički achieved strong results against their rivals, winning 4-1 at home and drawing 0-0 away in Hum. The third match will not have as significant a result for Čukarički as it will for Partizan, but Čukarički's head coach Marko Jakšić emphasizes that his team has more than enough motivation in the final match before their supporters.

"The boys have been training excellently. I hope they will perform as they should in the match against Partizan. We don’t have the pressure for results like our rivals. However, if we can, we aim to win every game. This would also be the case if we were to play with 11 youth players," said Marko Jakšić, head coach of Čukarički.

Jakšić then spoke about the numerous absences of players for the upcoming derbi on Sunday: "The squad situation is very poor. We will be missing at least seven, possibly even ten players. Those who are here are in competition. We will have some youth players, but we will certainly field the best possible lineup as we did in Novi Sad against Vojvodina. Some of the older players have been absent for a longer time, and through these matches, we are looking at who we can still rely on from June onwards. Thus, the entire play-off has come as a selection match. However, we do not abandon our ambition in any encounter, not even against Partizan."

Čukarički suffered a narrow defeat to Vojvodina (0-1) in the previous round in Novi Sad, and Jakšić was not entirely satisfied with their performance. "I was not satisfied with the energy with which we entered the match. We did not execute what we trained on the field. The agreement was to play football, to play what we trained, but that was not the case on the field. It looked like we were under pressure, not Vojvodina."

Jakšić invited the public to attend the match at Banovo Brdo Stadium.
