LJUBLJANA, Nov 3 (Reuters) Slovenia coach Bojan Prasnikar named an experienced 21-man squad for his side's Euro 2004 playoffs against Croatia on November 15 in Zagreb and four days later in Ljubljana. 'The two matches will be played by those that have brought us to the playoffs, thanks to their knowledge, dedication and desire. It would be extremely unusual to experiment on such important matches,' Prasnikar told reporters. 'Sometimes, we need to think of the group, of how players know each other on and off the field, ahead perhaps of the temporary form of a player,' he said. Uncapped Borut Mavric of Olimpija Ljubljana was named in the squad as the third goalkeeper following his good recent performances. 'He's in good form and he has always been there, close to the squad,' Prasnikar said. He also said he had left a spot in the squad to be filled by a fourth striker before the end of the week. 'I have three names -- Damir Pekic (Maribor), Marko Vogric (Ajdovscina) and Ermin Rakovic (Murska Sobota) -- and I will probably decide after Wednesday's round of the Slovenian league,' he said. Slovenia's coach also warned of possible problems in naming his side for the second leg as six players have one yellow card and could be banned for the second match against Croatia. 'We don't have the wide choice of players to compensate for such a loss and overcome easily problems like this. Though I have some potential substitutes in case we would need them after the first match in Zagreb,' he said. Goalkeepers: Mladen Dabanovic (Lokeren), Marko Simeunovic (Olympiakos Nicosia), Borut Mavric (Olimpija Ljubljana) Defenders: Spasoje Bulajic (FSV Mainz 05), Fabijan Cipot (Al Sadd Sports Club), Aleksander Knavs (FC Kaiserslautern), Bostjan Cesar (Dinamo Zagreb), Matej Snofl (Celje), Muamer Vugdalic (Domzale) Midfielders: Milenko Acimovic (Tottenham Hotspur), Nastja Ceh (Club Brugge), Adem Kapic (Ferencvaros), Amir Karic (Maribor), Robert Koren (Celje), Miran Pavlin (Olympiakos Nicosia), Mladen Rudonja (Olimpija Ljubljana), Simon Seslar (Celje), Goran Sukalo (SpVgg Unterhaching) Forwards: Zlatko Zahovic (Benfica), Ermin Siljak (FC Dalien, China), Sebastjan Cimirotic (Lecce) --
