Let's look at this action-packed game in the 1. HNL. Dinamo Zagreb is in the 1st spot from featuring in two fixtures. They host Istra 1961 who are placed 10th from two games.

These are hectic days for the hosts, as they had a game only three days ago in the Champions League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Shkupi.
