Under 2.5 Goals
The odds for Under 2.5 Goals stand at 74.10, indicating a high probability of a low-scoring game. Both teams have shown a tendency to focus on defense, with Rijeka’s home record bolstering this prediction. Expect tight marking and few clear-cut chances, making it likely that the total goals will not exceed two.
Both Teams Not to Score
With odds of 72.60, Both Teams Not to Score is another attractive bet. Rijeka’s solid defensive lineup and Varazdin’s strategic away play suggest that neither side will find the back of the net easily. The match could see both teams prioritizing defensive solidity over risky offensive maneuvers.
Over 1.5 Goals
Despite the defensive outlook, the Over 1.5 Goals market is priced at 61.90, reflecting some expectation of goal-scoring action. Given Rijeka’s ability to capitalize on counter-attacks and Varazdin’s occasional lapses in defense, at least one team is likely to score, if not both.
