It's advantage Lokomotiva Zagreb so far with their 3rd position in the 1. HNL table, welcoming Gorica who are placed 6th.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Gorica have already sealed their fate; they will finish in 6th place no matter what happens.
