LLDLDD ⚠

In that game, Gorica managed 20% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Dinamo Zagreb had 11 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target.

It has become apparent that Gorica have been starved of goals over their previous six games, contributing the unsatisfactory return of only 3. In those matches, Gorica have also seen the overall goal tally of opposing teams equal 7. Despite that, we’ll just have to find out if that pattern shall persist here in this game.

Leading up to this clash, Gorica:

• haven't won against NK Osijek in games played away from home for the previous 8 matches in the league. It has been a terrible run on the road.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 9 league games. Very poor, indeed.
