With Rijeka favored at 2.25 odds for a home win, a draw at 2.8, and Hajduk Split sitting at 3.6, the bookies are leaning towards the home side. But is that the best bet? Let’s break it down!

The smartest play here? Our AI-powered tip suggests 1X (Rijeka to win or draw) at 1.27 odds. With a trust rating of 5.6/10, it’s a solid safety net for cautious bettors. If you're feeling bolder, the 1X2 market prediction gives Rijeka the edge with a confidence of 3.3, meaning a straight home win at 2.25 odds could be worth the risk.

Expect a tight, low-scoring affair, as the Under 2.5 goals market has a trust level of 3.8 and odds of 1.45. Our AI predicts a 2-0 win for Rijeka, with a 1-0 lead at halftime.

Looking at possession stats, Rijeka is expected to control 53% of the ball, while Hajduk Split will have 47%. Shots? Rijeka should take 11 with 3 on target, while Hajduk Split is projected for 9 with 2 on target. Not exactly a goal-fest!

Historically, home teams in the HNL win 43.6% of the time, while away teams take 30.6%. Their last head-to-head ended in a goalless draw, but Rijeka’s recent away win against Dinamo Zagreb proves they can handle big games.

Final verdict? 1X at 1.27 odds is the safest bet, while a low-scoring game makes Under 2.5 goals a smart choice. Play it safe or go bold—your call!
