General match analysis
I project an away win (2): Hajduk sit 2nd with 18 wins this season versus Rijeka’s 11 wins (4th). In the last 5 matches Hajduk scored 12 goals and average 2.0 points per game, while Rijeka scored 6 goals and average 1.4 points per game. The visitors generate more high-quality chances — on average 5.13 shots on target and 59% possession away versus Rijeka’s 4.53 shots on target and 54% possession at home; conversion 12% vs 10% further favors Hajduk. Rijeka, however, have a higher xG at home (1.89) than Hajduk away (1.79) and average 1.6 goals scored, with average xG against 1.16, indicating a solid defense and the potential for a tight match. Considering Hajduk’s lower away loss rate (20% vs Rijeka’s 27% home losses) and the fact Rijeka fail to score in 33% of home games versus 27% for Hajduk away, I estimate chances at 55% for an away win, 25% for the home side and 20% for a draw.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Both teams have season BTTS rates below the league average of 55%: Rijeka 44% and Hajduk 40%, indicating a lower probability of BTTS - Yes in this match. Rijeka keep a clean sheet in 44% of home games and BTTS occurred in only 20% of their last 5 matches (1/5), while Hajduk have scored 12 goals in their last 5 (2.4 per game) with an xG of 1.79, giving them an offensive edge. Season goals averages are 1.5 for Rijeka and 1.8 for Hajduk, and shot conversion rates are 10% vs 12%, alongside xG 1.87 for Rijeka and 1.79 for Hajduk — these create chances but do not indicate extreme finishing. Additionally, over2.5 and BTTS combinations are relatively rare: 38% for Rijeka and 27% for Hajduk, which together with Rijeka’s high clean sheet rate reduces the likelihood of both teams scoring. On this basis I favor the 'No' scenario (BTTS no) at an estimated 60% vs 40% for 'Yes'.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The calculated expected xG is 1.56 for Rijeka and 1.44 for Hajduk, giving a total xG = 3.00 (Rijeka: (1.87+1.24)/2=1.56, Hajduk: (1.79+1.09)/2=1.44). Season-to-date, matches with over 1.5 goals occur in 81% of Rijeka’s games and 80% of Hajduk’s, and their average goals scored are 1.5 and 1.8 respectively (total 3.3). Given xG_total=3.00, I assign an 88% probability to Over 1.5. For the 2.5 line, seasonal overs are moderate (44% Rijeka, 47% Hajduk, league average 51%), but the last 5 matches show 6 goals for Rijeka (1.2 avg) and 12 goals for Hajduk (2.4 avg), i.e. 3.6 goals per match over the last 5, which raises the probability of Over 2.5 to approximately 60%. The 3.5 line is less likely: season Over 3.5 is 13% for Rijeka and 40% for Hajduk, and the expected total xG=3.00 is below 3.5, so I estimate 32% for Over 3.5 (68% for Under). The strongest signal is Over 1.5 (88%), therefore I recommend betting on Over 1.5 as the best line to play.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest signal comes from Hajduk’s form over the last 5 matches: the visitors led at the break in 3 of 5 games (60%) and won 3 of 5 (60%), with an average of 1.0 first-half goals for Hajduk versus 0.4 for Rijeka. On a season basis Rijeka shows strong home performance — averaging 2.0 points per home match and a 63% home win rate — however Hajduk averages 1.8 goals per match and has an xG of 1.79 compared to Rijeka’s xG of 1.87, indicating similar chance creation. Seasonally Rijeka led at the break in 44% of matches and Hajduk in 40%, but the last 5 matches clearly favor the visitors (Hajduk 60% half-time leads vs Rijeka 20%), so a higher probability for the first half is a Hajduk lead. Rijeka also tends to score late — 8 goals in minutes 76–90 versus Hajduk’s 5 — which increases the chance of a turnaround after the break; nevertheless second-half statistics and Hajduk’s effectiveness in the last five matches (60% wins) suggest the visitors have the edge to maintain the lead. Therefore I recommend the 2/2 scenario (Hajduk leading at Half-Time and winning Full-Time) as the strongest signal, while acknowledging the risk of a Rijeka comeback in the closing stages.
