Dinamo Zagreb took full advantage of being at home last week, and they lead 2-0 after the first leg in this tie. But this is expected to be tough for them, much closer, and PAOK will have no choice but to attack early and throw everything they have at this game. That should all set it up to be a good one on the night, with a place in the quarter finals at stake.
PAOK Form Guide2-0 down from the first leg, PAOK are going to have a big task turning this game around, and they have no choice but to be positive and attack here. But they're going to have to be far more clinical, they had eight shots last week, which isn't too bad, but none of them hit the target, which is a big worry.
To make it worse, in a game where they need to score twice, at least, they've not scored in their last two games, as they lost 1-0 at home to Aris on Sunday. They dominated that game, but again struggled to hit the target with their shots, so while the team knows their task, actually getting it done is something completely different.
Dinamo Zagreb Form GuideI was really impressed with what Dinamo Zagreb did last week in the first leg. They were happy to sacrifice the ball in parts, but key for them was that when they did have the ball, they did something with it and tried to be positive, deserving their two goal load. They won at the weekend, beating Slaven Belupo 5-2 on Sunday, to continue their goal scoring form.
Match PredictionPAOK have no option but to attack here, however, I have doubts about how much damage they can cause. Although they don't need to win, I think Dinamo Zagreb are good value here to avoid defeat. I will back them on the double chance market, covering a draw or them to win this game, which would be enough to progress to the next round.
