The 1. HNL season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Dinamo Zagreb and Osijek promises to be an interesting one.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Champions League match only four days ago. That game was an away game at CFR Cluj, so at least Dinamo are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
