Dinamo Zagreb 1-1 Real Betis Real Betis 0-1 Dinamo Zagreb
Only have ever met each other twice, Dinamo Zagreb will feel like they have the advantage when going into this game as they managed to get a result against Betis. However, Betis have only improved since that point and will be hopeful that they will manage to get a win of their own on the bored.
Dinamo Zagreb last 5 matches: Karlovac 0-7 Dinamo Zagreb (A) Croatia Cup Dinamo Zagreb 3-1 NK Varazdin (H) HNL Lille 4-0 Dinamo Zagreb (A) Europa League HNK Gorica 0-2 Dinamo Zagreb (A) HNL Dinamo Zagreb 1-1 Hajduk Split (H) HNL
Some very strong domestic form for Dinamo Zagreb having won 3 and drawn 1 out of their last 4 domestic games. This will give them a boost in confidence as they will be hoping that they can take this strong form into Europe and carry it on getting points on the bored. Having scored 13 goals in those 4 games, they are very strong going forward and just as strong at the back domestically having only conceded 2. However, this confidence would’ve been destroyed last week in the Europa League where they lost 4-0 to Lille. While they have confidence from the league and cup competitions, when it comes to Europe, this confidence would have been damaged massively last week.
Real Betis last 5 matches: Real Betis 1-1 Girona (H) LaLiga Real Betis 2-1 FC Utrecht (H) Europa League Sevilla 0-2 Real Betis (A) LaLiga Torrent CF 1-4 Real Betis (A) Copa Del Rey Real Betis 3-5 Barcelona (H) LaLiga
Very similar run of form for Betis having won 3 drawn 1 and lost 1. However, they have managed to keep their good run in Europa going with a comfortable 2-1-win last week. Having scored 12 goals in the last 5 matches, they will be confident that they can cause a lot of issues for Dinamo Zagreb especially after their last performance in Europe. Betis have also been very strong at the back with the exception of the Barcelona match they had only conceded 3 goals in the last 5 matches, however, that 5 goals conceded to Barca will give Dinamo Zagreb a boost in confidence as Betis defence will still be a bit nervy after that match. This could cause issues for Betis, however, based on current form, they should still be confident that they can get a result.
Our advanced algorithm has analysed over 200 pieces of data and predicted with a 50% confidence that there will be over 2.5 goals in this match. The key factors for this are players available, recent form, previous head-to-head matches, and tactical matchups.
Football Park’s Best Bet: There to be over 2.5 goals in this match @ 1.80 odd – this is based of tips provided by our team of in-house tipsters as a result of both team’s having seen over 2.5 goals scored in 3 out of 5 of their last matches.
Dion Beljo (Dinamo Zagreb): The striker has been a threat for Dinamo Zagreb in Europe so far this season with 2 goals and 1 assist in 4 matches. Averaging almost 3 shots per game with 2 of them being on target, Dinamo Zagreb will be hoping he can keep this going in this match as he will be likely to add another goal if he does. He will be the man that they look to make a difference and to put the ball in the back of the net so they can walk out with some points this week.
Antony (Real Betis): With a goal contribution per game so far in the Europa League, he will be the man most likely to make something happen for Betis on Thursday. Having massively over performed his Xg he will likely make some more magic happen and cause many issues for Dinamo Zagreb when going forward. If Betis get all 3 points expect him to have made the attack click.
