The HNL in Croatia: Matchweek 27 - What to Watch?

Soccer fans in Croatia are already excited to see the five matches of the 27th matchday of the HNL which starts on 03/15/2024. First game of round 27 will begin on 03/15/2024 and will end on 03/17/2024. The 27th round starts on Friday at 16:00 with a match between NK Osijek and NK Varazdin. Last match of the round will have NK Rudes Zagreb and GNK Dinamo Zagreb on 03/17/2024 at 16:10.

Already, last week we saw some interesting matches, for example when HNK Rijeka played NK Osijek and defeated them 3-0. Furthermore, there was the match of HNK Gorica vs. HNK Hajduk Split, where HNK Gorica got beaten 0-3. Yet another very watchable match was the 5-2 victory of GNK Dinamo Zagreb over NK Slaven Belupo. Here, on Oddspedia, we provide you with a detailed overview and statistics of the upcoming HNL matchday in Croatia– detailed information forall the games on the fixtures, the teams and their performance.

The best matches from the upcoming week

A highly anticipated match will be HNK Hajduk Split vs NK Lokomotiva Zagreb on 03/16/2024 at 16:10. HNK Hajduk Split has the upper hand in this match, since they are currently on the second place in the table. However, they still want to make sure to keep their rank. Both teams won their last match (HNK Hajduk Split won against HNK Gorica and NK Rudes Zagreb was beaten by NK Lokomotiva Zagreb), so it will be exciting to see which one of them will play better in their upcoming clash. A look at their recent performance might shed some light on that question: HNK Hajduk Split was able to win the majority of their latest matchesNK Lokomotiva Zagreb won 2 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches.

Another match fans are looking forward to takes place on 03/16/2024 at 14:00. Here, NK Slaven Belupo (currently in 8th place) will face HNK Rijeka (1st place). NK Slaven Belupo might be in a weaker position here, since they didn't manage to win their last match against GNK Dinamo Zagreb–while NK Osijek was beaten by HNK Rijeka. Looking at the teams' performance in their last matches can also be an indicator about their current form: NK Slaven Belupo didn't perform well in the latest matches and lost the majority of them, while HNK Rijeka played a lot better, winning 4 of their last five games.

People are also excited to see NK Osijek fight against NK Varazdin. They currently are in 4th place and 7th place, making their match interesting to watch. Both will have to step up their game and show their fans what they're made of, since none of them won their last match. You can also look at their recent performance to get an idea of their chances in the upcoming match: Winning 1 and losing 2 of their last five games, NK Varazdin had quite a mixed run lately, on which they will hopefully improve.

2023/24 HNL Standings - Which Teams are at the Top?

HNK Rijeka are currently leading the table with 56 points and a goal differencial of 32 (52 scored and 20 received). So far, they have won 17 out of their 26 matches–but since they're only leading by 1 point, HNK Hajduk Split (2/55pts) could take the lead this week, if they win their match against NK Lokomotiva Zagreb (5/36pts). Of course, HNK Rijeka would also have to lose their match. In any case, players will give their best to help their team win. But not only the top of the table has some interesting matches to offer–teams in the lower half also have to fight hard to stay in their league and not finish the season in last place. At the last place, there are NK Rudes Zagreb (10/7pts) with 7 points–and since they're already 19 points away from the last safe place, there's unfortunately no way they're going to be staying in the league after this season.

The biggest positive change in position, compared to the last matchday, has been made by NK Varazdin (8/27 points), who moved up one position and are now in eighth place in the league. On the other side, NK Slaven Belupo (7/27 points) made the biggest loss in positions, losing a total of one rank.
