Betting suggestion:

Varaždin has the desire to score points, so it will have to leave for the game. The visitors will try to surprise, so they shouldn't just defend on the pitch. We look forward to a busy game with great chances for goals. We will bet that there will be more than 2.5 goals in the match.

Preview
Varaždin and Rijeka face at Stadion Anđelko Herjavec, in a match for the 17th round of the 1. HNL. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 17‑10‑2020, Rijeka got a home win by (2‑1). The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 5 head‑to‑heads they won 4 and tied 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Cup, on 16‑12‑2020, Rijeka won by (1‑2). I. Posavec (39' ) scored for Varaždin and L. Menalo (90' ) and N. Galović (78' ) for Rijeka. The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 9th and 4th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 10th best team in home matches and the 8th best in away matches.

Analysis Varaždin

The home team is currently in the 9th position of the league, with 12 points won, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Hajduk Split, by (4‑2). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Dinamo Zagreb, by (4‑0). Interestingly enough, this is a team that has had better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 7 points in away matches and only 5 at their stadium. They come to this match after a home win against Hrvatski Dragovoljac by (4‑0). For the league, Varaždin won 5 points out of 24 possible points, after 1 win, 2 draws and 5 losses in the last 8 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 7 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

To be able to remain in the elite, Varazdin will have to make many changes in the championship. Currently, it is fighting against relegation, having a weak attack and defense. Its evolution should be total, both individually and collectively. This is said, because if there is a real improvement, the probability of getting better results will appear.

Confirmed Lineup: Dinko Horkaš, Ivan Posavec, Marko Stolnik, Itsuki Urata, Matej Senić, Nikola Tkalcic, Jorgo Pellumbi, Igor Postonjski, Neven Đurasek, Jorge Obregón, Vinko Petković.
Coach: N. Šafarić.

Analysis Rijeka

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 23 points won, after 7 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Dinamo Zagreb, by (2‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Dinamo Zagreb, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 6 points in away matches and 17 at their stadium, with 12 goals scored and 6 conceded at home, against 4 goals scored and 7 conceded in away matches. In the last 5 away league matches Rijeka has a record of 2 wins and 3 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 15 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 12 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times but have turned the score around in 3.

Rijeka knows that it will not be easy to be in the top three, but should continue to pursue this goal. Therefore, its part should be done and that means looking for good results even away from home. In the current round this is possible, but the team cannot think that it will have ease, so much so that it should respect the home team. On the other hand, it cannot help acting, after all, its interests are at stake.

Confirmed Lineup: Ivan Nevistić, Zoran Arsenić, João Escoval, Filip Braut, N. Galesic, Ivan Tomečak, Stjepan Lončar, Adam Gnezda Čerin, Franko Andrijašević, Luka Menalo, Robert Murić.
Coach: S. Cosmi.
