Two low-scoring sides meet in Niš, where Novi Pazar have one goal in five away trips and Radnički two wins in eleven league games.

A tight, low-scoring game with a slight home edge is the likeliest shape of it. Both teams not to score at 2.00 and under 2.5 goals at 1.85 are the prices that hold up; both teams to score at 1.75 and over 2.5 at 1.88 ask for more than the record shows.

Context

Danas reported the presentation on 15 October and Sport Klub called it a return to a club Lalatović had worked at not long before, so the appointment is established rather than rumoured. He has already taken one match, a 1-2 home loss to IMT on 18 October, in which Novi Pazar lost Papa Gadio to a 27th-minute red card. That game was distorted by an hour with ten men, so it yields little about his preferred shape or personnel, which makes the Niš trip the fixture where his selection starts to bite. The change is a real shift in selection risk rather than a proven upturn.
- Danas reported on 15 October that Nenad Lalatović had been presented at Novi Pazar, under the headline marking it a return.
- Sport Klub reported on 14 October that Lalatović had a new engagement in Serbia, at a club where he had worked not long before.
- A club-support account stated on 17 October that Lalatović took the team over again after the Pandurović spell, describing him as a former coach of the club.

Siemieniako, who covers the Serbian top flight, reported on 16 October that Radnički had changed coach and that the new man Drinčić had little time with the squad before the Radnik game. Radnički lost that match 3-0 after an early sending-off, so the Novi Pazar fixture is the first one he prepares with a normal week. A coach change at this stage touches selection and shape more directly than a form line does, which is why it is retained. No club announcement or second report was found, so the appointment is treated as unresolved and adds uncertainty to how the hosts line up.
- A Serbia-focused reporter posted on 16 October, before the Radnik kick-off, that Radnički had changed coach and that the new coach Drinčić had been given little time with the squad.
- The same post framed the change as a possible short-term lift through motivation, since Radnik were the form favourite for that game.

The 27th-minute red card arrived at 0-0 and left Novi Pazar an hour with ten men in a match they lost 1-2 to IMT, and Gadio was on the pitch for that opening spell. The ban removes a midfielder Lalatović used in his first selection rather than a fringe squad member, so the away XI must change in the middle. No published disciplinary confirmation was found and the offender is named only by a club-support account, so the length of the ban is open even though the dismissal itself matches the match record.
- A club-support account reported on 18 October that Papa Amady Gadio of Novi Pazar was shown a red card in the 27th minute with the score 0-0, leaving the team with ten players.
- The same account recorded the match finishing 1-2 to IMT on 18 October, after Novi Pazar had led through Kaheim Dixon's 48th-minute goal.

Radnik Surdulica won 3-0 in the match that opened round 12, and a Serbian league watcher reported that Radnički lost a player to an early red card before Radnik took control. A sending-off normally costs a player the following match, so the hosts should be without him against Novi Pazar. The effect is real but hard to size: none of the available sources names the offender, so it is unclear whether Radnički lose a defender, a midfielder or a forward. The dismissal itself matches the recorded match data, and the identity gap is the main limitation.
- Direktno reported that Radnik Surdulica beat Radnički Niš 3-0 in the opening match of round 12 on 16 October.
- A Serbian league watcher described Radnički receiving a red card quickly and Radnik then dominating the game inside Radnički's penalty area.
