Croatia Clubs Ranked - 1960/61 to 2025/26 (Updated)

Croatia was part of the Yugoslav league until 1990/91, when the country was broken up into several different ones. Points are therefore shared among what are now other nations up until that time. In 1992 and since then, Croatian clubs have been part of their own competition.

To the right, Cro is domestic and Tot icludes Europe. The points system rewards success, not participation. Dinamo Zagreb are by far the most successful club with 42% of total points allocated (349).  Hajduk Split has 28% (231).

In the SuperSport HNL, the top four are rewarded with 6, 3, 2 and 1. The Football Cup 4 and 2 points for the finalists only. Up to 8 points are awarded for European success. Now for a competition breakdown.

The league is dominated by Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split, with HNK Rijeka having recent success too. Since 1992, those three sides have won all titles bar one. Dinamo won 19 out of 21 from 2005/06 to 2025/26 and is the current title holder.

The cup follows the same pattern with the top three sharing the trophy. Due to the knock out format, consecutive wins are rare. Dinamo has still won 11 cups  from 2006/07.

In Europe, the only success has been in the Europa League. Dinamo were runner up in 1963 and winners in 1967. Hajduk Split made a semi final in 1984.

All put together, the clubs are below. The grand total is shown for each club, divided into regions with a ranking number (Rk), which gives their place compared to all the other clubs. Some of them have now ceased to exist and others have changed names but I've used the latest ones.

I've divided the clubs up into four regions. Zagreb has about 28% of the total population and took 46.7% of the total points. South 29.7%, West 13.1% with the other two are the same with a 5.2% average. Crowd trouble is a problem, with the rivalry between the two top clubs intense.
