Whatever Dinamo Zagreb does in the rest of the Champions League, the highlight of their season will be a 9-2 defeat against Bayern Munich in the first round. After the worst defeat in the club's history, Dinamo Zagreb also shockingly lost 4-1 against Slaven Belupo. However, since then, the biggest Croatian team stabilized as they won the next two games. In the previous match, Dinamo won 5-1 at home against Lokomotiva Zagreb.
Although Monaco hasn't won any major trophy since 2017, they seem strong enough to compete with PSG and the rest of the Ligue 1 teams. So far in the 2024/25 season, Monaco won six of seven matches, including a big 2-1 win against Barcelona in the Champions League first round. In the previous Ligue 1 round, they won 2-1 at home against Montpellier. Although Monaco had 65% ball possession and 12 shots on the goal more than the opponent, they needed a game-winning goal in the second half's stoppage time to secure all three points.
Dinamo Zagreb vs Monaco pick: Over 2.5 goals
There were at least four goals in each of the last four Dinamo Zagreb matches. On the other hand, Monaco scored ten goals in the previous four games. We should expect a high-scoring match on Wednesday night at Maksimir Stadium.
Dinamo Zagreb team news
After a humiliating 9-2 defeat in Munchen, Dinamo Zagreb's board sacked the head coach, Sergej Jakirovic. After a few games with the caretaker manager, the board finally appointed Nenad Bjelica a few days ago. Bjelica, who previously led Union Berlin, returns to Dinamo, where he won two Croatian league titles in 2018 and 2019.
