Hajduk Split
Strong Croatian club started the season in the European cups with a battle against HB Torshavan, the opponent is frankly weak, but there was no great dominance, a victory on their field 2:0, as well as an away draw - 0:0.
The championship has already started, in which Hajduk managed to play two matches, in which they scored 4 points, while the club is fourth in the standings, the gap from a couple of leaders is two points. It was not possible to achieve an advantage in the away game against the Slovaks, but now they have the advantage of their own arena, so they should make the most of it.
Ružomberok
By the standards of Slovakia, Ružomberok is far from a grand, although it has experience of playing in European cups, and also once became the champion of the country.
This season the team started their journey in the Europa League qualification, where they defeated Kazakh Tobol - 5:2 at home and 0:1 away. Then they could not resist against Trabzonspor - 0:2 away and 0:1 away. Slovakian championship started well, gaining 4 points in two matches, the gap from the leader is now only two points. The trip to Croatia will be difficult, the opponent is considered to be of a higher class, although it is realistic to succeed against Hajduk.
