Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Orijent 1919 in 10th and Cibalia in 9th place.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Orijent 1919 form and stats
Orijent 1919 have played 6 2. HNL games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-1-3 (wins-draws-losses).
I. Smolčić was the last player to score a league goal for Orijent and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Orijent 1919 haven't scored in 216 minutes.
The Orijent fans got no joy from their last match, a 2. HNL game also here at Stadion Krimeja: A 0-2 defeat against Solin (placed 17th). Preceding that game was the away draw at Rudes that finished 0-0.
This is expected to be a close game, with Orijent 1919 perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Orijent 1919 as a small favourite), we find two games. Orijent 1919 has won zero of these, drawn one and lost one.
The Orijent fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. 8 goals have been conceded.
Cibalia form and stats
Cibalia have only collected 7 points from their away games in the 2. HNL, after 2-1-4 (7 played).
Cibalia might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Dubrava Zagreb proved too strong as Cibalia slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadion Cibalia. Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Croatia Zmijavci.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found one similar match played by Cibalia in our archives, and the results are: zero wins for Cibalia, one draw and zero defeats.
The attacking power of Cibalia when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 7 league matches away. Cibalia have conceded 10 goals in these away matches.
