How did the match at Poljud unfold?

The game ended without goals despite attempts from both sides. Hajduk had more territorial possession but failed to break down Lokomotiva's well-organized defence. The visitors from Zagreb rarely ventured forward, focusing on a solid defensive setup. The 0:0 scoreline reflected this tactical stalemate.

Alberto del Moral was among the players trying to unlock the Zagreb block. However, the final touch or a precise shot was missing from the home side. This result brings only one point for the Whites, which isn't enough to move up the standings table.

What is Hajduk's current league position?

After five rounds played, Hajduk sits in 4th place in the HNL with 10 points. Their record is three wins, one draw, and one loss. In their last three matches, they have recorded one win, one draw, and one loss (WDL). They have scored 11 goals and conceded 5, giving them a +6 goal difference.

They trail leaders NK Osijek by just two points. They famously thrashed Osijek 4:0 in the previous round on August 23rd. That result shows the potential within the squad, which wasn't use in this match against Lokomotiva. More detailed numbers can be found on our stats page.

What's next for the Split club?

Hajduk's next challenge is a home fixture against NK Slaven Belupo. The match is scheduled for September 12, 2026, at Poljud. Slaven Belupo currently occupies 9th place in the table, making Hajduk the favourite on paper. However, a much better attacking performance is needed to secure the points.
