✪ Croatia - 1. HNL - Single ✪ ► Time: 20:15 CET ► NK Istra 1961 - NK Osijek ► Pick: Double Chance Osijek ► Odd: 1.95 Opener of the seventh round in the HNL between the 5th placed NK Istra and Osijek, which is one place below Istra in the standings. Both teams achieved 7 points out of six league games and are aiming for higher spots. The encounter takes place at the Aldo Drosina stadium in Istra this Friday evening. Istra is coming from three undefeated games in a row as they remained unbeaten in their last two road games in Belupo (1-1) and in Zadar (1-1). Between these road games they defeated Lokomotiv Zagreb at their home ground 3-2. This was one of only two home games for Istra yet, the other one was a narrow 0-1 defeat against HNK Rijeka. The team of head coach Igor Pamic is aiming for the second consecutive home victory today against Osijek. Good news for the coach that he has no worries about injured or suspended players. Possible lineup: Lovric - Chung, Obsivac, Vucko, Graf - Batarelo, Blagojevic, Pamic, Heister - Franjic, Radonjic. On the other side we have the visitors from Osijek, who are coming from two consecutive victories over NK Zagreb (2-1) and Hadjuk Split (2-0). Their overall record this season is 2-1-3 with a goal record of 8-10. It was obvious that the team has improved during the last two fixtures and both victories for Osijek were well deserved. Now they are aiming for the third one in Istra today, where they havent lost the last six encounters in the past 5 years. Head coach Tomislav Rukavina is able to field his strongest squad today, because no key players is injured or suspended for this fixture. Possible lineup: Mikulic - Pavic, Novakovic, Jonjic, Matas - Misic, Vitaic - Baraban, Lulic, Sorsa - Barisic. It seems like that Osijek is on an ascending branch lately and they have definitely improved over the past games. Both teams are pretty equalized if we compare their qualities, but considering their current forms, we see a slightly advantage on the visitors side here. Therefore we expect, that Osijek wont lose today. flashscore/match/xpYoBCN2/#match-summary
