Arsenal enter this fixture as overwhelming favourites, with the odds strongly reflecting their superiority. Best priced at 1.14 for a straight win, the Gunners are practically guaranteed victory, leaving Dinamo Zagreb with just a 12.2% chance of pulling off an upset.

The Gunners’ European campaign has been nothing short of exceptional. Defensively, they have emerged as one of the strongest teams in the competition, conceding a mere 0.33 goals per game. This resilience at the back has made them a formidable force, especially at the Emirates, where they are yet to concede in European fixtures.

Arsenal have won all 7 of their Champions League home games since the start of last season, a record unmatched by any other side. Adding to their defensive strength, their attacking prowess has been equally impressive. The Gunners have scored 2 or more goals in 12 of their 18 home games this season with an average of exactly 2 in Europe 

Dinamo Zagreb concede an average of 2.5 goals per game in Europe, an alarming statistic when coming up against Arsenal’s potent attack. Moreover, their recent form is concerning, with just 1 win in their last 8 matches across all competitions (4D, 3L).

To make matters worse, this will be Zagreb’s first competitive fixture of the calendar year, as they return to action following a winter break. This lack of match sharpness, combined with their historical difficulties in Europe, makes their challenge against Arsenal at the Emirates seem almost insurmountable.

The Gunners have been no strangers to penalties in Europe this season. They have been involved in 4 penalties across 6 European games, scoring 1 and missing 1 themselves, whilst conceding 1 and saving 1. Their high attacking possession and pressure also makes them prime candidates to win penalties.  

While Dinamo Zagreb are yet to win a penalty in this UCL campaign, their defensive frailty under sustained attacking pressure has exposed them to conceding spot kicks. Zagreb have conceded 4 penalties, with note that this was across two matches in which they were heavily dominated in possession – 1 penalty v Monaco and 3 penalties v Bayern Munich.  

German referee Daniel Siebert’s officiating history further supports the likelihood of this bet landing. In his 2 UCL games this season, Siebert has awarded 3 penalties, highlighting his willingness to make big calls in high-stakes matches.

🔍 Arsenal v Dinamo Zagreb Players to Watch

🔵 Sandro Kulenović

With limited attacking chances expected for the visitors ahead of this clash, Dinamo Zagreb’s Croatian striker remains their beacon of hope as their primary attacking threat. Averaging 2.58 shots and 1.21 on target per game, Kulenović has hit the target in 3 of his last 4 matches. With 3 away goals in this campaign, Kulenović is just 1 goal away from tying a club record for CL away goals.

🔴 Gabriel Martinelli

With Bukayo Saka sidelined, Arsenal’s wingers have had to step up massively and Martinelli is no exception. Averaging 1.43 shots per game, Martinelli has registered a shot on target in 3 of his last 4 starts. His inclusion in the XI would stand as a possible good omen for Arsenal, who are unbeaten in their last 38 matches in which Martinelli has scored (W32, D6).

While Dinamo Zagreb sit comfortably in domestic competition (3rd in HNL), their struggles in Europe are glaring. Their transition from domestic dominance to European mediocrity is evident in the following metrics (domestic division and UCL rankings):

• Goals Scored: 1.9 per game domestically (1^st) v 1.67 in Europe (17^th)
• Shots on Target: 5.6 per game domestically (1^st) v 3.2 in Europe (29^th)
• Possession: 60.3% domestically (1^st) v 36.8% in Europe (34^th)
• Big Chances Created: 55 domestically (1^st) v 8 in Europe (29^th)
• Corners Won: 112 domestically (1^st) v just 17 in Europe (34^th)
• Accurate Passes: 416.3 per game domestically (1^st) v 266.8 in Europe (34^th)

Defensively, Zagreb rank 30^th of 36 teams for goals conceded, highlighting their vulnerability at the back. With just one win in their last eight matches across all competitions (D4, L3), Zagreb will need a near-miracle to challenge Arsenal on their home turf.
