HNK Rijeka vs Istra 1961 Prediction

Over2.5 goals
91% confidence

Why we picked this for HNK Rijeka vs Istra 1961

Over 2.5 goals is our call for HNK Rijeka against Istra 1961 (Croatian Cup), rated at 91% confidence. Matches involving HNK Rijeka produced 2.4 goals per game over their last 5, and 3 of those went over 2.5. For Istra 1961 it is 2.4 goals per game, with 3 of 5 over 2.5. The form of both teams backs the call.

The head-to-head points the other way: only 2 of their last 5 meetings finished over 2.5 goals. Older meetings say less about how these teams play now, so recent form counts for more in our numbers. At 91%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 1-0. The pick lost.
