Rijeka

DWLDDL

Rijeka will be wanting a better result here after a 2-0 Prva Liga loss in their previous game against NK Osijek.

Ramón Mierez (25', 69') scored for NK Osijek.

It’s not been often in recent times that Rijeka have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Riječki bijeli have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, letting in 8 goals during that time. We shall soon find out if that trend will end up being continued on into this next match.

Going into this contest, Rijeka have not won at home in their last 6 matches in the league. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

We feel that in this game, Hajduk Split should have enough to score against this Rijeka side, but it is unlikely to be as many as the goals that they could concede.

We’re tipping a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 advantage for Rijeka after the 90. Should be an interesting one.
