Slaven Koprivnica and Istra 1961 meet in the Croatian league level on points with 13 points from 11 matches, both mid-table and separated by just one place, so this is a game where both sides want to take points to avoid dropping out of the mid-table group. The hosts won 2-1 in their latest match, but before that they had games where they scored 4 and games where they conceded as many as 5, so their defence is still not settled. Istra 1961, meanwhile, are without a win in 2 straight matches, but they drew 2-2 in their latest game and scored 3 goals in the two matches before that, so the visitors' game is built more on attacking than sitting back. With the sides this evenly matched, the game should be an exchange of blows in midfield with goals at both ends. The hosts, with the advantage of playing at home, should be able to keep the game from turning against them, and are more likely to finish unbeaten than to be beaten at home by the visitors.
