Slaven Belupo (Home)
- NK Slaven Belupo sit in seventh place on 41 points.
- Belupo’s set up will be a 4-2-3-1 with a compact, disciplined double pivot, although their best chances will come when they can win the ball back and use their wide midfielders and forwards to hit the opposition on the counter.
- Josip Mitrovic is Slaven’s main outlet in attack, as evidenced by his eight goals in 30 HNL appearances this term, but Marko Dabro is in form with three goals in his last five games and has scored 3 of Slaven’s last seven goals in their previous five.
- Slaven have won eight, drawn five and lost four of their 17 home games.
Dinamo Zagreb (Away)
- GNK Dinamo Zagreb sit atop the HNL 2025/2026 with 82 points from 34 matches.
- Mario Kovačević has instilled a proactive, high-tempo style and an attacking mindset on Dinamo Zagreb since taking over as manager in June 2025, which has extended Dinamo’s domestic dominance.
- Dinamo Zagreb’s 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 is a flexible system that revolves around a dominant possession-based game, in which they press high up the field, rotate their players into goal-scoring positions and have the quality to finish off teams on the break.
- Dion Drena Beljo is their most lethal finisher and top scorer in the league with 30 goals in 34 games.
- Dinamo Zagreb have the away record in the HNL to suggest they can take all three points here, winning 12, drawing two and losing just three of their 17 away games this season.
- Dinamo Zagreb have a 5-match winning streak in all competitions.
