Bazdarevic commented on his lineup: "We couldn't count on injured Bicakcic, Graovac, Ibisevic and Lulic. Anicic and Cimirot are involved in the championships so we left them out, as well as Buric who had to attend to some private matters. We'll be facing quality opponents, we wanted to gather the best team we could, but also to give a chance to younger players from Premier League to show their skills. We're also thinking about the duties that await us in autumn, and it's important for us to be ready for the next qualifications."
Team members will gather on May 26th in St. Galen.
