Istra 1961 vs Lokomotiva Zagreb tips and predictions

The jury's out in this one

Anything looks possible here. The draw looks interesting. The suspicion is that this is going to be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out over an attritional ninety minutes. It might not stand out but the BTTS No bet would be sensible. In the total goals market, it's Under 1.5 goals picked as the best play considering the odds that are available there.

Istra 1961 have drawn 7 of their last 18 matches on their own soil, most recently when they drew 0-0 with Gorica last week. Lokomotiva Zagreb have drawn 9 of their last 20 matches.
