Lokomotiva Zagreb form and stats

The 1. HNL season is young and Lokomotiva Zagreb have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.

Lokomotiva play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Gaj (after extra-time). A draw for Lokomotiva before that, at their own venue hosting Istra 1961 (0-0).

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager G. Tomić when K. Kovačević scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 76th minute.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Dinamo Zagreb in just four days.

The visiting Lokomotiva Zagreb have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 3 goals from 3 games. There are big problems for the Lokomotiva defense as they have conceded 10 goals in 3 away games.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Koprivnica won one game, three matches ended with a draw and Lokomotiva Zagreb has six wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
