1.HNL - Zagreb vs Dinamo Zagreb Football betting preview

Zagreb lost in Osijek on saturday and lost every chance for 3rd spot and UEFA cup through national league so, if they want to go there, they'll have to eliminate their city rivals. That defeat was their first one in the league after winter break so there's no use talking about their current form.

Dinamo also rested few players in saturdays 5-2 win in Zadar. Good news for them is absolutely great performances by recovered attacking midfielder/ striker Vugrinec. He's return solved some scoring problems and concerning that most of Dinamo's strikers aren't exactly in top-form he's a very important player for blues. Dinamo will miss their Gattuso, Vukojević, and he will be replaced by Vrdoljak. Modrić will be back in his favourite position as a central midfielder. He played as a CM in Zadar and showed why is he so wanted on the transfer market. Mandžukić is also most probably out so attacking duo will be again Tadić and Vugrinec. Etto also out, Buljat instead which is imho good for Dinamo cause Etto is out of form.

Zagreb are two goals behind so they will have to put some risk in this match if they want to make something. Dinamo's defence is maybe their weakest point what is logical from my point of view cause they secured title long time ago so they lack that serious approach on the back. Dinamo is always attacking in their matches so it leaves plenty of spaces for counter-attacks, their wing backs are very offensive so Dinamo practically have sometimes only two or three real defenders.

All in all, i expect over here. Considering that their last 10/11 h2h matches ended over 2.5 that's logical pick. Zagreb has to score and Dinamo is always in attacking mould so we could see at least three goals. When it comes to 1X2, i would rather go with Dinamo. Zagrebs ground isn't something that should scare them, Dinamo's fans will outnamber Zagreb's like always, and tradition and quality are also on their side.

I'll go on sure thing just because there is a possibility i'm biased Very Happy , and also pick Dinamo DNB with higher stake, i would be very surprised to see Zagreb winning this one. GL
