Game week two of the 1. HNL season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the Slaven Koprivnica - Gorica preview:
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Slaven Koprivnica form and stats
Stress levels are on the rise for Koprivnica's attacking players as they have now played 217 minutes without scoring in a league game. I. Krstanovic was their last goal scorer. Nothing to worry about in defence for Koprivnica, as their goalkeeper Ivan Filipovic has completely shut out the opponents for 258 minutes in the 1. HNL.
The home team returns to Gradski Stadion after being equal after 90 minutes with Osijek (placed 3rd) on their last time out; the 1. HNL game ended 0-0. Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against Inter Zapresic.
Last season, Slaven Koprivnica's league statistics were 10 wins, 9 draws and 17 losses, resulting in a 7th position in the 1. HNL. Over these 36 matches they scored 34 goals and conceded 51. Playing at home last season Slaven Koprivnica managed 8-6-4 (win-draw-lost) with 20 goals and 16 conceded.
Gorica form and stats
A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the 1. HNL, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 5 wins, 5 draws and 8 defeats from 18 matches.
Gorica play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 5-1 victory visiting Varaždin (placed 10th). A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Slaven Koprivnica.
As mentioned above, Gorica was the only team on the pitch versus Varaždin in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
5 goals so far away for Gorica, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.
Let's have a look at how Gorica performed last season in the Arena Cup: They landed a 6th position in the league table after playing out 12 victories, 13 draws and 11 defeats. In total they scored 44 and conceded 48 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 5 and lost 8 with 22/34 goals scored/conceded.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last nine matches): Slaven Koprivnica three wins, three draws and Gorica three victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
