NK Slavonija Požega host NK Oriolik Oriovac in the Croatian Cup round of 32. CheckLive's model favours the home side with a 60 per cent signal strength, which it rates as high; it is a clear lean, but not a certainty, and a draw is a real possible outcome.
After a 3-4 home defeat to Bjelovar in the 2. NL, Slavonija beat Moslavina Kutina 3-0 at home in this competition, drew 2-2 at Koprivnica, then lost 0-1 at home to Jarun — leaving them with one win, one draw and two defeats from those four fixtures. Oriolik, in contrast, arrive on four straight wins: a 3-0 friendly victory over Slavonac Gunjavci-Drežnik, a 7-0 home win over Sikirevci and a 2-1 success at Zadrugar in the MŽNL SB-PŽ, and a 3-1 home win over Hajduk Pakrac in their latest game.
The head-to-head sample shows Slavonija with four wins from five meetings, Oriolik one, and no draws; the most recent of those was a 3-0 Slavonija home win in the Croatian Cup in September 2024. Much will depend on whether Oriolik's scoring run — 15 goals across their four wins — can unsettle a Slavonija defence that has conceded seven in their last four.
