With a record of 1 win, 1 draw, and 1 loss, they are looking to build momentum after a decent performance last week. Offensively, Ohrid has shown promise, scoring 4 goals in their first three matches, but they have also conceded 3, indicating some vulnerabilities in their defense.

Their record stands at 0 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses, with only 2 goals scored compared to 5 conceded.
