Dinamo Zagreb vs PAOK: UEFA Conference League
Match Overview
Dinamo Zagreb and PAOK Thessaloniki take each other on in a match in the round of sixteen stage of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday. This game will be contested evenly by the two teams as they are known to challenge each other at an equal footing on most things. Zagreb's defenders will have to be up to the task on Thursday.
Key Highlights
While Zagreb haven't lost in 9 matches, if one were to take a microscope to look, they have also been unbeaten in their last 5 home games. This is a fact that will bother PAOK a lot, as they will feel that they cannot breach the defences of Zagreb in their own lair. However, PAOK's attackers are known to weave past opposition attackers with ease, and it will be exciting to see what they do on Thursday.
Injury Report
Both these teams have long lists of injured players in their ranks. For Zagreb, this includes the likes of Sadegh Moharrami, Marko Rog and Marko Bulat among others while Juan Sastre and Zivko Zivkovic are among a few others who will not be available for selection for PAOK in this game.
Prediction
Neither Dinamo Zagreb nor PAOK appear to be the downright favourites to win this game. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. Zagreb will feel that they can challenge the midfield and defence of PAOK, but to get past them will be a different task altogether. PAOK, who like to attack on the counter, will wait for the right opportunity to do so.
