It's still early in the 2. HNL season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Junak - Croatia Zmijavci preview!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Junak form and stats
Junak are yet to win a home game, having collected 0 points from their first two 2. HNL games here at Gradski Stadion. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Junak to get some points in this home game. Junak are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Gradski Stadion, having lost their two previous games here.
Junak faced defeat in their previous match, away at Osijek II (0-2). Before that game, the home loss against Hrvatski Dragovoljac with the scoreline 1-4.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Dugopolje are coming to town in three days.
Junak has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 6 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Croatia Zmijavci form and stats
Croatia Zmijavci have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the 2. HNL were 2 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats from 9 fixtures.
Zmijavci go into this game after a win, the home game against Hajduk Split II that ended 4-0. Prior to that result Zmijavci won their away game at Segesta Sisak in the Croatia Cup. The scoreline was 4-3.
As mentioned above, Croatia Zmijavci was the only team on the pitch versus Hajduk Split II in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
A new game in only four days for Croatia Zmijavci, the 2. HNL home match versus Sesvete. Busy days.
Croatia Zmijavci have the goal stats of 0-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
