Slaven Koprivnica form and stats
Slaven Koprivnica's results here at Gradski Stadion in the 1. HNL have been very modest with 2 victories, 4 draws and 5 defeats. Two draws in a row at home now for Koprivnica.
Before that, Koprivnica drew at home versus Lokomotiva Zagreb.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Koprivnica as they have a new game in only three days, a 1. HNL match thankfully also at home. Istra 1961 are visiting.

Rijeka form and stats
Playing away, Rijeka have won 4 games, drawn 1 and suffered 6 defeats in the 1. HNL this season. Rijeka has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Dinamo Zagreb wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
After this away game Rijeka return home for a 1. HNL game against Varazdin. That game is only four sleeps after this.
The attacking power of Rijeka when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 11 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Rijeka have conceded 16 goals in these away matches.
