Expert Betting Tips
Rijeka have a great opportunity to return to the top of the table because Hajduk Split are only one point ahead of them. However, Gorica are not a naive opponent and they showed that they can beat everyone in the last round when the current champion, Dinamo Zagreb, fell. Both teams have a great defense this season and have conceded only 8 goals in 11 games so far. When you look at their previous meetings, it is evident that in the last six, no more than two goals have been scored, but in this match I think Rijeka will win, and will score at least 2 goals in the match.
