AI confidence: Medium

AI match recap

Hajduk return to Poljud leading the HNL and facing a Gorica side still searching for a more reliable attacking rhythm. The hosts have the stronger recent form, greater depth in the attacking line and a favourable recent record in this matchup. Gorica’s route to resistance is a compact block, disciplined protection of the central corridor and Erceg making their rare transitions stick. Team news remains the main pre-match uncertainty because availability reports do not fully agree.

Head-to-head analysis

Hajduk won the most recent meeting at Gorica and have taken successive home league victories over this opponent. Gorica have still shown they can disrupt the fixture, including a league win in Velika Gorica earlier in the calendar year.

Injuries and absences

Availability needs confirmation: FotMob lists Marešić as injured and Ivušić as doubtful for Hajduk, which would reduce defensive continuity and goalkeeper depth, while another preview reports no absences. Gorica’s listed issues concern Kučiš and Aondowase, limiting peripheral squad options more than their projected starting structure.
