Bylis-Partizani, Skënder Gega: Without pressure, we play on Albanian

Partizan coach Skënder Gega stated that his team has no pressure for the challenge with Bylis.

A false step could complicate the situation for fourth place and the capital's coach demands the maximum from his players.

"We are coming off a tough match, such as the one against Egnatia, a match with a lot of pressure from all aspects. Fortunately, we got through it successfully, but it also had its drawbacks. Keko received 4 yellow cards, Zeka suffered an injury, and Domgjoni did too. We hope that Domgjoni recovers as soon as possible. In this regard, we may have to make some changes, while the rest of the team has worked brilliantly all week and it seems that they are motivated to go and achieve what we are looking for.

We are only focused on the match in Ballsh. I have only been here for 4 weeks. Of course, the rotation would be very good if there were opportunities and if we had the comfort both in terms of number of players and points. I am trying at the moment to put the right people in and give what I expect. It is not that I only deal with the spirit or morale. The important thing is that they give 100%. If they give 100% and have understood everything that we work on during the week, things go well.

"As a coach, but perhaps also as a guy, I am not the type to put pressure on the players. Points are always inevitable. Give your best, be calm. We play within Albanian territory, we play in a city that is a little further away. If you are prepared and physically well, there is nothing to have doubts about. We have no pressure, but we appreciate this match immensely," declared Gega.

The Partizani-Elbasani match is scheduled for Saturday, starting at 15:30.
