Gorica

DLWLWW

Gorica fans will want a repeat of their previous result, being a 1-0 Prva Liga triumph against Šibenik.

The only scorer from Gorica was Hrvoje Babec (71').

Gorica haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, finding the back of the net every time they’ve gone out to play in their last 6 games.

They’ve claimed a sum of 9 during that time and have conceded a total of 7. We will have to see whether or not that trend will end up being sustained here.

Heading into this fixture, Gorica are unbeaten in the league by Rijeka in their last 8 matches. A long run without a loss.

Rijeka

WLDWLD ⚖

In their previous fixture, Rijeka drew 1-1 in the Prva Liga tie with Istra 1961.

The only scorer from Rijeka was Robert Murić (8'). Šime Gržan (5') was the scorer for Istra 1961.

The stats don’t lie, and Rijeka have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, with opponents netting 9 goals in all. Defensively, Riječki bijeli have seen their frailties exposed.

Ahead of this meeting, Rijeka are unbeaten in their last 2 away league matches.

The referee was Fran Jović.

ℹ️ Team News: Gorica

Gorica manager Siniša Oreščanin doesn’t have any fitness worries whatsoever before this game thanks to a fully injury-free group ready to go.

ℹ️ Team News: Rijeka

Due to a mostly healthy group of players, there is only the one fitness issue for the Rijeka manager Simon Rožman to be concerned about. Darko Velkovski (Unknown Injury) misses out for this game.

✨ Prediction

We feel that over the course of the game, Gorica may well find it hard to breach the defence of this Rijeka outfit who we reckon will get a goal themselves and run out victorious.

We’re therefore tipping a good tussle with a 0-1 win for Rijeka at the end of this one.

Little in this one.
