Match Preview
Rijeka will host Lokomotiva Zagreb at Stadion HNK Rijeka on Saturday, 13 September, in a match that promises to be competitive given both teams' recent form. Rijeka's last five games have seen them secure two wins, but they have struggled for consistency with a mixed record of results, including a recent loss. In contrast, Lokomotiva has shown resilience, managing to win two of their last five matches, which could give them the psychological edge going into this fixture. One key angle to consider is Rijeka's strong home advantage, where they have historically performed well against Lokomotiva, winning six of their last ten encounters. Additionally, both teams have a tendency to score, with six of their last ten meetings resulting in both teams finding the net. Given Rijeka's need to solidify their position in the league and Lokomotiva's ambition to climb the table, this match could see an open contest with plenty of goal-scoring opportunities.
