I’ve always been obsessed with sports. Over time, this passion naturally evolved into a fascination with stats and sports betting, especially football. The Premier League is my bread and butter, having grown up watching it, but my interest spans leagues across the globe - if there's a game on, I'll find a punting angle for it.

Both Teams to Score

18+, Please Gamble Responsibly, Ad.

This pick is supported by the attacking strengths and defensive vulnerabilities both teams have displayed this term. Zagreb have been prolific in front of goal, averaging 2.0 goals per game in UEFA competitions this season. However, their defence has struggled significantly, conceding an average of 3.0 goals per match, making them prone to high-scoring games.

Celtic mirror this trend, scoring an average of 2.0 goals per game but also conceding 2.0, highlighting their inability to maintain defensive solidity against the heightened attacking calibre of European opponents.

With both teams boasting the offensive firepower to find the back of the net and defences that have consistently leaked goals, BTTS offers strong value and is a logical choice given the statistical patterns of their performances.

Celtic to Win, Celtic to have the Most Corners & Dinamo Zagreb to have the Most Cards

18+, Please Gamble Responsibly, Ad.

Celtic have been in excellent form, both domestically and in Europe. They’ve won all but one match in the Scottish Premiership, while in Europe they have recorded 2 wins and 2 draws. Their solid defence, having conceded just 4 goals in the league, coupled with their attacking power, make them a strong contender to secure a win here. Given their current form and Dinamo Zagreb's struggles, particularly at home, a Celtic win seems likely.

Celtic have averaged 6.0 corners per game, while Dinamo Zagreb have averaged just 2.80 corners in their European matches, a significant difference. Zagreb also concede on average 10.6 corners a game in Europe - a huge tally.

Celtic’s attacking style and ability to dominate possession in European fixtures increase their chances of earning more corners. In contrast, Zagreb’s relatively lower corner count reflects their struggles to maintain attacking pressure consistently. This further supports the likelihood of Celtic winning the most corners.

Zagreb have averaged 2.4 cards per game in Europe, a higher rate compared to Celtic’s 1.2 cards per game. This suggests that Zagreb's defensive playstyle often leads to more fouls and bookings, especially when they face high-pressure opponents like Celtic.

As Celtic tend to dominate possession and create frequent attacking opportunities, Zagreb could resort to fouling to disrupt their rhythm, leading to more cards for the Croatian side. Given the data, 10/1 looks an attractive price for this selection.

🔍 Dinamo Zagreb v Celtic Players to Watch

🔵 Sandro Kulenovic

Kulenovic has been a standout performer for Zagreb this season, firmly establishing himself as their most dangerous attacking threat. He leads the team's goal-scoring chart with 8 goals in the domestic league, with the next closest player only on 3. He is also Zagreb's top scorer in the Champions League, netting 3 goals so far.

Kulenovic has averaged at least 1 shot on target per game in the competition, highlighting his consistent ability to test the goalkeeper. With his proven goal-scoring form and pivotal role in the team’s attack, he represents excellent value for both the shot on target and anytime goalscorer markets.

⚪ Daizen Maeda

Maeda has been a key contributor for Celtic this season, particularly in the Champions League, where he has scored 3 goals. Across 5 appearances, he has averaged 0.8 shots on target per game, with a total of 1.6 shots per game — the highest of any Celtic player.

Given Zagreb's defensive struggles, conceding an average of 7.8 shots on target per game, Maeda is well-positioned to test the goalkeeper. His consistent attacking presence and the vulnerability of Zagreb’s defence make this bet a strong option at a nice price of 1.73.

💻 Dinamo Zagreb v Celtic Form and Tactics

Dinamo Zagreb have had a difficult start to the season by their usual high standards. Despite generally dominating domestically with 17 Croatian league titles in the last 18 seasons, they currently sit third in the table.

They’ve managed just 1 win from their last 7 matches in the league. However, their European form has been slightly better, with 2 wins from their opening 5 games, including a significant draw against Monaco, which was a notable upset.

On the other hand, Celtic have been near-perfect in the Scottish Premiership, winning all but one match, which ended in a draw. Their defence has been rock solid, conceding just 4 goals in the league.

In Europe, Celtic have enjoyed a solid campaign so far, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and a loss away at Dortmund. A victory on Tuesday would put them in a strong position to secure a spot in the playoffs.
