Qarabag vs D. Zagreb Prediction & Betting Tips (28 August)

What happened for Qarabag FK during their first leg trip against Dinamo Zagreb? The Azerbaijani team, top scorer in the qualifiers with 15 goals in 4 matches, sank, although the difference in level was not obvious, or even non-existent. At the end of 30 minutes of rather balanced play during which the two teams will observe a long round of observation, Marko Pjaca ex-Juventus will find the fault in the Azeri defense at 29' of play 1-0. The two teams will return to the locker rooms with a score of 1 goal to 0 in favor of the locals. In the 2nd half, on a precise serve in the opponent's area, Kulenovic found the way to goal 74', 2-0 before doubling the lead following a mix-up in the local area 80', 3-0. 3-0 final score, it's super severe, the Azerbaijani players missed countless opportunities 18 shots including a missed one-on-one in the 1st half alone in front of goal by Juninho and a missed 2 meters from goal always in 1st. This club is an institution, no less than 25 titles since the creation of the championship at the breakup of the former Yugoslavia.

Already leader of its championship, Dynamo played and won its first match in the Champions League this season. Coming back to the game between the two teams in the first leg, Dynamo Zagreb was very hot, Qarabag showed such waste in the last gesture that it almost seemed improbable. However, its 3-0 lead should make the difference, it remains to be seen whether it intends to stay 11 behind or play hard as in the first leg. In front of an offensive force such as that of Qarabag, the match promises to be tasty.

With no less than 7 players present in the Azeri selection during the last gathering of the selection, Qarabag FK is the main provider (Magomejadiev, Cafarguliyev, Mustafazade, Guseynov, Biramov, Isayev, Qurbanli). The best players on this Azerbaijani team are not locals, however. Thus, former Lille player Benzia (12 goals last year) and Zoubir (ex-Lens 8 goals) turned the heads of the opposing defenses, but were silent during the first leg like the rest of the team. Striker Juninho, scorer of 6 goals in 5 Champions League qualifying matches, has had countless chances. Shahrudin Mahammadaliyev (goalkeeper, Azeri international) is the main recruit of this team but he is out of this meeting and probably for a very long time. Indeed, because recently, the leaders got their hands on the excellent Polish goalkeeper Kochalski (€1M), however it is Buntic (rookie) who obtained the favors of his leaders to play in the cages, he ate 3 of the goals. International striker Musa Qurbanli, back at the club this summer, is also out, like Montenegrin internationals Vesovic and Jankovic. GNK Dinamo Zagreb has lost some great players over the years, we are thinking in particular of a boy like Orsic (214 matches - 91 goals) but can always count on his giant in front, Petkovic (69 goals - 215 matches). The ex-Rennais Théophile Catherine (34 years old) is still very present behind.

A former great hope in world football tips when he played for Juventus during the 2016 season, Mr. Pjaca was recently recruited by Dinamo, making his return to the club. It was he who opened the scoring from his right wing shortly before returning to the locker room. Entering 63' into the game, Kulenovic didn't take much time before distinguishing himself with a double (75': 2-0, 80': 3-0) The young international with 11 caps, Mauro Perkovic (central defender) is forfeited. This is also the case for Iranian international Moharami (long-term injured). Other players not yet used this season, midfielder Stojkovic and defender Peric are out. More annoying, Captain Ademi is uncertain.
