What to expect

We expect about 1.7 goals from Rijeka and 0.7 from HNK Gorica, so Rijeka come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.4 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

HNK Gorica come into this on two straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Rijeka to win. Rijeka are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.7-0.7), and we make them about 64% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 63 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.34, which works out at about 75 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓Rijeka have won two of their last five.
✓HNK Gorica have not won any of their last five.
✓Three of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in one of the last five meetings.
