Dinamo Zagreb vs Varazdin Prediction: Can Varazdin make a miracle?

For the first time since August, on Wednesday we will get the complete SuperSport HNL table. It will be after the late game of the fifth round between Dinamo and Varazdin, which was initially supposed to be played in August. The ball from the center on Maksimir starts at 6 p.m. and Dinamo are expecting to continue their good run and race for the first place.

In the end, this could be a very successful season for the Blues from Maksimir. It seemed that they would say goodbye to the title this year, but they were persistent and are close to the double crown in Croatia, while they also made a step forward in Europe and played in the round of 16 of the Conference League. As far as the championship is concerned, and that is our focus, they are in second place with 5 points less than Rijeka but also a game less. It is this match with Varazdin that was supposed to be played this summer, but due to Dinamo's commitments in Europe, it was postponed. If the Blues win the points, they will reduce the gap to first place and will have only 2 points less than Rijeka, and at the same time, they have a duel with this team until the end of the season. Dinamo beat Hajduk in Split twice in a short row, so why not Rijeka in Rujevica? Dinamo are in a series of 5 victories in the championship, and last weekend they celebrated on the road at Gorica with 2:0.

The guests have no worries and are waiting for this late match in 7th place in the table with two points less than Gorica. That sixth position is Varazdin's goal until the end of the season because they can't fight for survival since Rudes were written off a long time ago. It is characteristic for Varazdin to play well and firmly against bigger teams. In the two previous away games, they won in Osijek and Koprivnica, both times with 1:0. They were defeated by Rijeka 2:0 in Rujevica and in Zagreb, in Maksimir, they played two months ago and were only defeated 1:0. The only thing they hate a lot is when they visit Poljud, in Split they lost in the Croatian Cup with 5:0, and in the championship with 3:1.

Expert Betting Tips

Dinamo's victory is out of the question, but Varazdin will certainly try to make things complicated. They will again close all approaches to their net but this time I think that Dinamo are in much better form than 2 month ago, so I expect a confident home win, with several goals difference.
