Dinamo Zagreb vs Manchester City – UEFA Champions League:We are on the last round of the Champions League’s group stage this year
Dinamo Zagreb is without some players. Andric, Kulenovic and Leskovic are out with injuries and Peric and Theophile-Catherine are out due to yellow cards.
To these names, we also add Leovac who is doubtful for this encounter.
On the side of Manchester City, Aguero, Fernandinho, Laporte, Sane and Stones are absent from this match but besides that we will have here a Manchester City with a lot of changes on the starting line-up due to the fact they’re already qualified for the next stage, which will really help this Dinamo Zagreb in this match.
City are making a very good campaign on this competition, already having ensured qualification heading into the last round and also having ensured the 1st place.
However, that was more than their obligation in this group, where they were by far the highest quality team.
Still, City got 2 draws in 5 matches and both of them were on the last 2 rounds.
Besides that, the team isn’t doing well in the Premier League, occupying the 3rd place behind Liverpool and Leicester and already 14 points behind the Reds that are leading the league.
This City isn’t making a good campaign if we consider everything that they had done last season and it is more than certain that Guardiola’s team has the main objective of winning the Champions League this year, since they’ve never won it.
The league title is already a mirage, so their efforts will all be focused on this competition.
Dinamo have to win here to aspire continuing on the competition since they have 5 points conquered, 1 more than Atalanta and 1 less than Shakhtar, teams that will also be facing off in this round.
From these 3 teams, the one that wins will almost surely advance. However, Shakhtar are the ones with the advantage on this race.
Dinamo known they have to win and hope that Shakhtar doesn’t. The chances are there and at home, against a City that should rotate some of their players, I believe that they can score 1 or 2 goals.
City’s playstyle is attacking and even with a rotated squad, they should have the ability to score a goal, which means taking the “Over” with both teams scoring seems to be the best option for this match.
