Match Preview
Rijeka hosts Ludogorets in a pivotal Champions League qualifier on 22 July, with kickoff set for 19:45 at the Stadion HNK Rijeka. The home side comes into this match with a mixed bag of results, having won two of their last five fixtures, while Ludogorets has struggled, managing just one win in their last five. Historically, the teams have faced each other only twice, with Rijeka claiming one win and the other match ending in a draw, suggesting a competitive edge for the Croatian side.
