Rijeka boss Simon Rožman will be happy not to have any fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this game with a fully injury-free squad to choose from.

Due to a mostly available group, there’s only a single fitness worry for the Gorica manager Valdas Dambrauskas to be concerned with. Paulius Golubickas (Fractured Jaw) won’t be playing here.

💡 Prediction

In our view, Rijeka have it within them to dominate possession and create several successful chances. However, Gorica will be up against it to break down their defence but we do fancy them hitting back at some stage. Accordingly, we see a pretty comfortable 3-1 win for Rijeka at the end of the match.
