Dinamo Zagreb Preview – Can Zagreb salvage tie?
Following a heavy 3-0 loss away at Moldovan opponents, Sheriff Tiraspol, in last week’s 1st leg of this Champions League play-off tie, Dinamo Zagreb have it all to do in this return leg at their Stadion Maksimir as they look to stage a comeback.
Following that defeat, Dinamo Zagreb quickly bounced back with a 1-0 home win over Lokomotiva Zagreb in the Croatian 1 HNL and the hosts have lost just one of their previous nine matches in all competitions which gives them a chance here.
Results at home have been largely impressive as Dinamo Zagreb have lost just one of their last 15 matches overall, winning 11 of these.
Sheriff Tiraspol Preview – Can Sheriff hang on?
The visitors bring an important 3-0 lead into this crucial 2nd leg in Zagreb on Wednesday night and Sheriff are now just 90 minutes away from progressing to the lucrative group stage of the Champions League following last week’s resounding win.
That 1st leg victory became Sheriff Tiraspol’s eighth win in nine games in all competitions and the visitors have progressed through the qualifying rounds of this competition with wins against Teuta Durres, Alashkert and Red Star Belgrade which have been impressive.
However, on the Champions League stage, Sheriff have won just three of their last 11 away ties at this level and they may struggle to contain Dinamo Zagreb here.
