Dinamo Zagreb are finding life sweet in the top spots while Šibenik are more worried about escaping relegation. Expected home win or surprise away points?
- Dinamo Zagreb have the most scored goals (75) in 1. HNL
- Šibenik have the fewest scored goals (23) in 1. HNL
Dinamo Zagreb are already the 1. HNL winners and can relax with the season objective secured. If they do relax it might give the away team a slightly better chance in this one. Šibenik are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.
It's no vacation for neither Dinamo Zagreb nor Šibenik as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Dinamo Zagreb form and stats
Home games in the 1. HNL have been a walk in the park for Dinamo Zagreb so far, with 47 points won from 17 matches; 15 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses. Dinamo has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadion Maksimir. We remember; it was Osijek.
The Dinamo Zagreb goalkeeper Ivan Nevistic is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 595 minutes without conceding a goal in the 1. HNL.
Dinamo's last game was hosting Šibenik (placed 10th) and winning 4-0. As mentioned above, Dinamo Zagreb "killed" Šibenik in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Midfield player Mišić got a match rating of 8.25 in that game, the max score being 10. Mišić served one assist, hit two key passes and had 90 successful passes (of 101 total).
A 0-0 draw away before that, with Osijek the opponent.It should be noted that a look at the 10 most recent league fixtures reveals that 8 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored a goal).
Goals are plentiful at Stadion Maksimir in the league this season as Dinamo has scored 48 goals here in 17 home games. From these home matches, Dinamo Zagreb have conceded only 11 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
Šibenik form and stats
Šibenik have only collected 14 points from their away games in the 1. HNL, after 2-8-7 (17 played). A depressing four defeats in a row for Šibenik in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Osijek.
Šibenik have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 294 minutes ago. Arai was the goal scorer.
Šibenik play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Dinamo Zagreb (placed 1st). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Dinamo Zagreb was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind. Kvržić got a match rating of 6.93 in that game, top player of the team. Kvržić hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 39 successful passes (of 47 total).
A loss against Varazdin was the result prior to that, in a home game.As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Šibenik's match history for similar games we find 7 matches. The home team won 7 of these as expected, 5 of them by at least two goals. Šibenik managed 0 draws and 0 surprise wins.
Highlight this: 12 of the latest 15 league matches involving this side have seen only one (or no) side scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting words).
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Šibenik as they have only managed to score 9 times from 17 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Šibenik have conceded 20 goals in these away matches.
