The visiting Inter Zaprešić played their last game only four days ago, a 2. HNL match. That game was also an away game, at Opatija. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Bijelo Brdo form and stats

Bijelo Brdo have played 4 2. HNL games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).

Happy days for Bijelo in their previous game, a 2. HNL match away at Medimurje Cakovec (placed 5th) that ended with a 5-2 victory. Preceding that game was the away draw at Junak that finished 2-2.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? M. Dabro was absolutely essential when Bijelo beat Medimurje Cakovec 5-2, scoring three goals.

Inter Zaprešić form and stats

Inter Zaprešić have only collected 5 points from their away games in the 2. HNL, after 1-2-3 (6 played). Zaprešić has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Zaprešić lost away at Opatija (2-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Prior to that match, a home win 2-0 against Dinamo Zagreb II.

Late heartbreak for Inter Zaprešić in the Opatija match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

Zaprešić are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and two defeats. From a total of three matches.

The travelling fans enjoy Zaprešić's attacking play in away games, having scored 11 goals in 6 league matches away. The Zaprešić manager T. Ivković has some worries about the defense as 12 goals have been conceded in these travels.
