Dinamo Zagreb form and stats
Last season, Dinamo Zagreb's Champions League journey ended in the 3rd qualifying round.31 points is a decent return from 13 1. HNL games here at Stadion Maksimir for Dinamo Zagreb. The data says 10 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. This match is a Europa League match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in this competition. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Dinamo has won six games in a row. The Sibenik match was the last time out without a victory. 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 Sibenik.
Nothing to worry about in defence for Dinamo, as their goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic has completely shut out the opponents for 565 minutes in the 1. HNL.
A good away victory last time out for Dinamo, who won 5-0 against Varazdin. Heartbreak before that as Dinamo Zagreb lost 0-2 at Tottenham Hotspur's place.
As mentioned above, Dinamo "killed" Varazdin in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Dinamo, as the 1. HNL home game vs Gorica is only three days away.
Dinamo are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (37 goals in 13 games). Dinamo have only conceded 11 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Tottenham Hotspur form and stats
