In the 5th round of the Croatian best football league, we will see a match between two teams that are predicted to end in the middle of the table. Lokomotiva Zagreb will welcome Varazdin and this match is interesting because these teams have different mentality and approach. Lokomotiva are trying to play more offensive, dominant football while Varazdin are mostly focused on the defense.

After 4 matches played, Lokomotiva are still without a win in the league. They have 2 draws and 2 defeats. In the previous round, they were defeated at home 1:0 by Sibenik, even though they were a better team on the field. They are still trying to find their true face after so many sold players in the previous weeks. I think that this team have much more potential and the 8th place in the table is only temporary and Lokomotiva will move up the table.
Varazdin
Form: WLDDW
Along with Dinamo, Varazdin are the most financially stable club in Croatia. Players must be sold to maintain financial stability. It's a big challenge and it's all the more stressful said their manager before the duel against Lokomotiva. Varazdin have shown exceptional defensive stability this season, conceding only two goals in four games, both in the game against Hajduk. In the previous round, they recorded the first win in this season at home against Slaven Belupo 2:0.
Expert Betting Tips
This is a match that both teams want not to lose. Lokomotiva will certainly be more desperate to get all 3 points, but more important for them is to try to remain undefeated at home. Even 3 of their last 5 matches ended with a result of 0:0, and I expect something similar in this match. More focus on the defense and trying to avoid making mistakes by any cost.
