Hrvatski Dragovoljac form and stats

Hrvatski Dragovoljac, who have the the best goal difference (+11) in 2. HNL, have performed here at Stadion NŠC Stjepan Spajić this season with 9 wins from 13 2. HNL matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 3 games and lost 1. Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Dragovoljac, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.

Dragovoljac are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 3-4 away versus Sesvete. 0-0 away at Opatija before that.

Did Dragovoljac get overconfident in their match against Sesvete? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 2-0 lead to end up with a 3-4 defeat. 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?

The match schedule is unforgiving for Dragovoljac as they have a new game in only three days, a 2. HNL match thankfully also at home. Solin are visiting.

A decent goal production from Dragovoljac in their home games so far, with 23 goals from 13 league matches. Dragovoljac are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadion NŠC Stjepan Spajić in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 11 from 13 matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
