In the 11th round of MAXtv’s First League (Prva Liga), Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb meet today at 17h in Zagreb’s Maksimir stadium for the biggest derby of Croatian sport.
After 10 rounds, Hajduk have 20 points, while the boys in blue lie slightly ahead with 22 points, Hajduk.hr reports.
Coach Marijan Pušnik’s team is in top form, with Hajduk achieving 16 goals in their last three meetings against Slaven Belupo, Jalžabet, Cibalia. They also only conceded one goal.
Top players Nikola Vlašić and Savvas have returned to Hajduk’s squad after missing the game against Cibalia due to minor injuries. Against Dinamo, Ante Erceg is the only player who will miss the match due to injuries, while all the other players are available, says coach Pušnik.
The 19 players on the Hajduk roster for the match today made their way to Zagreb, and we hear the atmosphere in the “Bijelih” camp is positive, and exactly what it should be in ahead of the biggest “eternal” derby.
Justice in today’s duel for Hajduk and Dinamo will be decided by head official Ivan Bebek from Rijeka, with assistants Tomislav Petrović from Valpovo and Miro Grgić from Osijek. The fourth official is Željko Frković from Gospić.
As for the famous Hajduk Torcida fans, the “white train” set off this morning to Zagreb, with nearly 500 Torcida and Hajduk fans filling the train, singing “I hate Dinamo…” at the tops of their lungs.
