Drew 0–0 away at Varaždin · Sep 19

That's how they've played so far. Where the model has Osijek finishing in May, and the odds on going down, come with a free account.

What the numbers say

Season to date, measured against the rest of the division.

Attack

Nobody in the division has shot more

142 attempts, more than any other side. Whether they are the right attempts is a separate question.

142

shots

Attack

Wasteful, not toothless

Scoring about 20% below what their shot volume supports. Finishing that far below the run rate usually corrects.

0.80

goals per expected

Defence

They win the ball back

4th in the division for tackles. A side doing that much defending is either pressing well or living without the ball.

128

tackles

Defence

Shutouts are becoming a habit

Clean sheets in 4 of 8.

Overall

Giving the ball away

Dispossessed 76 times, more than all but a handful in the division. Territory earned and handed straight back.
