Dinamo (home)
- Dinamo are 2nd in HNL 2026/2027 with 19 points from 9 games, two ahead of Rijeka in 5th.
- Mario Kovacevic's side have a perfect home record in the HNL this term with 5 wins from 5 games, just two ahead of the 17 points accumulated by Rijeka in fifth.
- Dinamo have won four of their last five games, two in a row.
Rijeka (away)
- Rijeka have won three of their last five, two in a row.
- Rijeka's away record is more chequered with 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats from five.
- Matjaz Kek's men have won three of their last five, so they are also in decent form ahead of this.
Head-to-Head
- GNK Dinamo Zagreb have the better head-to-head record, have performed better at home in HNL 2026/2027 and are the clear favourites with the bookmakers ahead of HNK Rijeka's visit to Makarova Brca on Tuesday, so the hosts have to be supported.
- But their results at the home ground of Modri in recent years have been poor with no wins in the last two visits.
Key Players
- Dion Drena Beljo has 9 goals in six HNL 2026/2027 games for Dinamo and six in their last five, so he is their danger man.
- Daniel Adu-Adjei has been Rijeka's leading striker with four in seven HNL 2026/2027, all of which have come in their last five.
Betting Insights
- Dinamo are the clear favourites with the bookmakers ahead of HNK Rijeka's visit to Makarova Brca.
- The odds for Rijeka at 4.77 seem a bit short, as does 1.46 for 2.5 goals.
- We'll take the goal line as both teams have recently been involved in open games and we can't see much chance of a low-scoring encounter.
Prediction
- Modri to maintain their momentum with a win
- Dinamo are the more likely of the two to take the win, but Rijeka have just found their rhythm and the odds for them at 4.77 seem a bit short, as does the 1.46 for 2.5 goals.
- Given Dinamo's perfect home form and superior head-to-head, the hosts have to be supported, while acknowledging Rijeka's improved form and counter-attacking threat.
