Russian President Dmitri Medvedev will visit new gas pipeline partner Slovenia to watch a football World Cup qualifier between the two countries.
The state-run news agency STA says Medvedev will arrive late Wednesday and meet briefly with President Danilo Turk before the two travel together to the football stadium in Maribor, northeastern Slovenia.
Russia and Slovenia are both eager to gain a berth at the 2010 World Cup.
Medvedev is attending an EU-Russia summit in Stockholm earlier Wednesday.
Slovenia on Saturday joined the South Stream pipeline project for carrying Russian natural gas to Europe.
