Opatija form and stats

6-4-2 (win-draw-lost) are the 2. HNL numbers at home for Opatija so far this season.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Orijent 1919.

The manager T. Čizmarević will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Dugopolje in only three days.

Opatija are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 12 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.

Junak form and stats

Prior to that match, the Junak manager S. Balajić faced defeat when travelling to Inter Zaprešić and losing 0-1.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Dinamo Zagreb II in just three days.

The visiting Junak have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 16 goals from 13 games. Junak's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 22 goals from these trips.
