Expected score: Lucko 1-0 Varteks Varaždin
Lucko hosts Varteks Varaždin in Second NL Round 12 on 7 November 2026, a fixture between two mid-table sides fighting to climb away from the relegation zone. Lucko sit 14th with 10 points from 11 games; Varteks Varaždin are 15th on 8 points. Both teams have struggled for consistency, but the hosts carry a marginal advantage in recent output and head-to-head record.
Team form
Lucko
Lucko have drawn their last two league matches—1-1 at home to Grobničan Čavle and 1-1 away at Križevci—after a 2-1 home win over Trnje. Over their last five games they have scored 5 and conceded 8, averaging 1.0 goals for and 1.6 against. The pattern suggests a side capable of creating chances but vulnerable at the back; the two consecutive draws indicate they are finding it hard to convert pressure into wins despite not losing ground.
Varteks Varaždin
Varteks Varaždin have won only one of their last five outings—a 2-1 away victory at Dugo Selo—and have drawn twice and lost twice since. Their record shows 4 goals scored and 6 conceded across those five fixtures, an average of 0.8 and 1.2 per game. The visitors' season-long defensive frailty is evident: they have conceded 18 goals in 11 matches, a rate of 1.64 per game, the worst in this pairing. They arrive without momentum and with a fragile rearguard.
Head-to-head
The teams have met twice recently. In May 2026 they drew 1-1 at home; in November 2025, Lucko won 3-2 away at Varteks Varaždin. Lucko hold the edge in direct history and have shown they can score against this opponent, though Varteks Varaždin proved capable of breaching Lucko's defence in that away fixture.
Key factors
Lucko's home record and marginally superior defensive stability—1.27 goals conceded per game versus Varteks Varaždin's 1.64—offer a tactical foundation. Varteks Varaždin's inability to tighten their backline is a critical weakness; they have shipped goals consistently and will face a Lucko side that, despite recent draws, has shown attacking intent. The visitors' lack of a win in recent weeks compounds the pressure. Set pieces and transitions may prove decisive given both teams' modest possession-based control.
Prediction
Lucko emerge as a slight favourite. They hold the home advantage, a better defensive record, and superior recent results despite the draws. Varteks Varaždin's leaky defence and poor form away from home suggest they will struggle to impose themselves. The expected goal balance favours the hosts, and the head-to-head record tilts toward Lucko. A low-scoring affair is likely given both teams' modest attacking averages, but the hosts should edge a tight contest.
Lucko are marginally more likely to secure three points, though a draw remains a plausible outcome given the closeness of the fixture and both sides' recent tendency toward stalemates. A low-scoring home win is the most probable result, with under 2.5 goals the likely total.
