The Licensing and Inspection Commission has determined that the pitch at the Koševo stadium does not currently meet the required standards for hosting football matches. The primary cause cited for the poor condition of the playing surface is the recent series of three concerts held at the venue, which drew an attendance exceeding 200,000 visitors. In related sporting news, both the Koševo stadium and the Dino Merlin concerts are scheduled to take place at the Veleža stadium in Mostar.
A notable development surrounding the upcoming match has been the announcement of a boycott by the fan group known as the “Horde of Evil.” This declaration has generated significant dissatisfaction among the fanbase in Sarajevo. The organized fan group has stated its intention not to provide vocal support to their team during the match in Mostar. Simultaneously, the group has also announced that it will withhold its support from the “Horde of Evil” in the match itself.
The convergence of these events—the pitch assessment, the scheduling conflict with the merlin concerts, and the fan boycott—has created considerable discussion within the local sports community regarding the immediate suitability of the stadium for competitive playing.
