Model CS-3Methodology

Match analysis

Four losses in their last five games have left Gorica managing 0.4 goals a game, and that scoring drought is why Superior's model backs Under 3.5 goals at 1.35 for their 16 August meeting with Hajduk Split, rating it a 74 percent play. Hajduk arrive as clear favorites at 1.81 to win away.

Eight conceded, only two scored across Gorica's last five

Gorica have lost four of their last five games, conceding eight while scoring only twice themselves, the run behind their 0.4 average. Hajduk's attack rates 6.4 in Superior's grading against a Gorica defence at 6.3, a gap of one tenth, and a team scoring this little does not need Hajduk at their sharpest to keep the total down.

The last head-to-head meeting produced four goals

Gorica and Hajduk played out a 1-3 result in October 2025, the one meeting between these sides in the last five that beat this Under 3.5 line. Hajduk have also scored five in a single game this summer, beating Zalgiris Vilnius 5-2 away. If Hajduk's finishing arrives the way it did in either of those games, this pick is the one that loses.
