Rudes vs Varazdin Prediction: A match for pride

As part of the 31st round of the SuperSport Croatian Football League,  Rudes will welcome Varazdin on their home field on Monday, April 22, from 6 p.m. This is the third in a series of matches of the Zagreb’s team on their home turf in front of their fans in the west part of the city. 

Form: LLLLL

After 30 rounds played, Rudes are by far the worst team in the entire league, with only one triumph, only 7 points won, and as many as 25 defeats. With 13 goals scored, they are the worst attacking team in the history of the league, and with 67 goals conceded, they have the worst defense this season. In the last 5 matches, they recorded all 5 defeats, and in that period, they conceded 15 and scored 3 goals. They play loose and without pressure, and many youngsters are getting chance which results in very efficient matches almost every round. 

Form: LLWLW

After 30 rounds played, Varazdin have a record of 7 triumphs, 12 draws, and 11 losses, which is quite a good result for them. They are currently in 7th place with 33 points. In the last 5 rounds, they were defeated 3 times, while they won 2 times. In the last round, they were defeated by Dinamo with 2:1, but in Maksimir they put up a very good resistance against the current champion of Croatia. 

All the Rudes matches have been similar lately. There are no big differences. They showed in those last two matches a real fight and were quite competitive. Varazdin are also playing without pressure, they are a better team than Rudes, but since both teams are playing relaxed and without pressure, I expect to see many goals, especially from Varazdin in this match.
