As we approach this much-anticipated fixture, NK Varazdin sits 4th in the HNL table with 20 points, while Lokomotiva Zagreb trails just behind in 6th with 19 points. Both teams have shown resilience and tactical discipline in recent weeks, making this match a real test of nerve and strategy.
Looking at recent form, Varazdin has been impressive, picking up four wins from their last five matches, scoring an average of 2.2 goals per game and conceding just 0.8. Lokomotiva Zagreb, on the other hand, have three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five, with 1.6 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per match.

When it comes to head to head encounters, Lokomotiva Zagreb has historically had the upper hand, winning 14 of the last 29 meetings, while Varazdin has managed just five victories, with 10 matches ending in a draw. The average goals per game in these fixtures sits at 2.10, hinting at generally low-scoring affairs.
The last time these two met, Varazdin edged Lokomotiva 2-1, but history suggests this fixture is rarely a goal fest. Both teams have similar squad values—Varazdin at €10.25m and Lokomotiva at €10.90m—so expect a balanced contest.

Our AI leans towards Lokomotiva Zagreb snatching a narrow victory, with a predicted final score of 0:1.
The AI expects a cagey first half with a 0:0 scoreline, before Lokomotiva finds a breakthrough after the break. With both teams struggling to score more than 1.5 goals in recent matches, the under 3.5 goals tip looks especially solid.
In summary, if you’re looking for a smart NK Varazdin vs Lok. Zagreb prediction for your next bet, under 3.5 goals is the safest play, while a punt on Lokomotiva Zagreb at decent odds could pay off for the more adventurous. As always, check the latest team news closer to kickoff, but all signs point to a tight, tactical battle at Stadion Varteks.
