UEFA Europa Conference League
The Europa Conference League playoff round comes to an end this week, and we've got a really intriguing tie in Zagreb. Dinamo are the hosts, they hold a 1-0 lead from the first leg, and they take on Real Betis, a team who will feel unlucky with what happened in the first game, and will be here looking for revenge.
Dinamo Zagreb Form GuideDinamo Zagreb hold the advantage here, and have the home crowd behind them as they look to make the knockout round of this competition. They didn't have too many chances last week, with a penalty winning them the game, and on top of that, it was their only shot on target of the entire game.
But the key for them is they've got the advantage, something to protect, and they should be better at home. They played on Sunday in domestic action, and won 1-0 against Varazdin.
Real Betis Form GuideReal Betis will have come away from their game last week wondering how they ended up losing it 1-0, but the fact is they did. They dominated the ball, with over 60% possession, and had a lot of shots, but crucially, of the 16 shots they had, just three of them were on target.
Key to this game is going to be how much more clinical Betis can be, because if they can reign in shots on target rather than off target, then they are surely going to be able to get at least one goal. They also played on Sunday, and drew 0-0 at home to Alaves, again, they had 13 shots in that game, but just two of them hit the target.
Match PredictionCan Real Betis take their chances better here? I am going to back them to do so, and that means they can win this game in 90 minutes. The tie is up for grabs, but Betis are the better side, and I'll take them to score here and win the game.
