Here's how Hajduk's lineup will look today
Hajduk splits today against Slaven Belupo in a SuperSport HNL match, with key players absent due to injuries and transfers.
Today, Hajduk will face Slaven Belupo at Poljud in the 21st round of the SuperSport HNL. The match is set to start at 17:15. Notably, Hajduk will be without their top scorer Michele Šego, who has scored ten goals this season, necessitating a lineup change. Marko Livaja will step in for Šego as he returns to start for only the second time since his injury on September 27.
Hajduk's recent transfer activity has also impacted their lineup, as they sold defender Branimir Mlačić to Udinese for nearly five million euros, leaving a gap that will be filled by Kosovar defender Ron Raci against Slaven. Mlačić had been a regular starter, making this change significant for Hajduk's defense as they try to maintain their competitive edge in the league.
The match carries extra weight for Livaja, who aims to regain his place as a key player after missing months due to injury, last playing a full 90 minutes in a crucial derby against Dinamo. With other players like Rokas Pukštas, the team's most valuable player, set to contribute, Hajduk looks to secure a win today despite the challenges posed by injuries and roster changes.
