Notes
  • [M] In the 2010–11 season Branislav Milačić took over the helm at Mogren in April two months before end of season. He led the team on Matchdays 25–33 and clinched the title on the last day of the season on 28 May 2011.
  • B In the 2017–18 season Nikola Jurčević took over Dinamo Zagreb from Mario Cvitanović in March, and won the title with 3 games to play in May. He was sacked with only one league fixture left to play and replaced with Nenad Bjelica.
  • C The 2019–20 season was another turbulent season for Dinamo. Following the Covid-19 lockdown in March, coach Bjelica was sacked in late April. He was replaced by Dinamo's youth coach Igor Jovićević and under him the club clinched the 2019–20 league title on 20 June 2020 with a draw against Gorica on Matchday 30, with six games left to play. However, following a 2–0 defeat to rivals Rijeka on Matchday 33, Jovićević too was sacked on 6 July 2020 and replaced by Zoran Mamić for the last three fixtures of the season.
  • Conflicting sources for 1972 Torpedo cup - some attribute it to Maslov, others to Ivanov
