Opatija form and stats

7-4-2 (win-draw-lost) are the 2. HNL numbers at home for Opatija so far this season. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Opatija after consecutive victories at their own ground.

A nice win for Opatija last time playing, versus Junak. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with E. Junuzovic scoring for the victors. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Osijek II.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Opatija have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost zero.

Opatija are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 13 games. On the other hand, Opatija have conceded 13 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
