- Slaven Koprivnica has the fewest points (5) at home in 1. HNL
- Varaždin has the most conceded goals (30) in 1. HNL
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
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the 1. HNL this season. Slaven Koprivnica, who have the fewest points (5) at home in 1. HNL, have only managed 1 win, 2 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Gradski Stadion. Three consecutive losses here at Gradski Stadion is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
Slaven Koprivnica are returning here after visiting Istra 1961 in a 1. HNL game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Nemanja Glavčić scored the goal(s). Prior to that, an away loss at Lokomotiva Zagreb.
There will be little rest for Slaven Koprivnica after this match as they are travelling to Osijek for a 1. HNL game in only four days.
The Koprivnica fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 11 goals have been conceded.
Varaždin form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Varaždin, who have the most conceded goals (30) in 1. HNL, so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-5 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Varaždin's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Impressive finishing from Itsuki Urata and Jorge Obregon secured the home win 2-1 against Rijeka in their previous game. Prior to that match, the Varaždin manager S. Toplak faced defeat when travelling to Dinamo Zagreb and losing 0-4.
The attacking power of Varaždin when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 8 league matches away. Varaždin have conceded 12 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Varaždin - Koprivnica 1-2 earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Koprivnica, five draws and two wins for Varaždin. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.Top Goalscorers
