Juventus vs Dinamo Zagreb Predictions

Juventus bounced back from their 3-1 defeat at Genoa on Saturday with their own 3-1 win at home to Atalanta. This made it six wins from their last eight games in all competitions and leaves them seven points clear at the top of Serie A.

Gonzalo Higuain didn’t manage to find the net on Saturday, but he remains the Turin giants’ top scorer. He has netted nine goals in all competitions and has scored two thirds of them in Turin. Backing him to find the net looks by far the best choice for our anytime goalscorer predictions.

Juventus may have already qualified for the Champions League knockout stages, but they won’t be taking it easy this game. Sevilla play away from home against Lyon, and should they win and Juventus lose the Spanish side will snatch the top spot at the final hurdle. This means Juventus need to remain concentrated and get the win.

In all honesty it shouldn’t be too difficult for them. They hammered Dinamo Zagreb 4-0 away from home in September and the visitors are completely out of their depth in this group. They haven’t picked up a single point so far, and they haven’t even managed to find the net yet. The 13 goals at the other end show how bad their defensive efforts have been as well.

A few of these defeats came in the early stages of the season when they were really struggling, and they have at least improved in the last couple of months. However, they have still failed to win four of their last seven in all competitions and shockingly find themselves six points adrift of Croatian 1. HNL leaders Rijeka.

Juventus’ home form won’t give Dinamo Zagreb much hope of turning it around either. The hosts haven’t lost a home game since August 2015, and this season they have won eight and drawn two of their ten games at home. 24 goals have been scored by them in this ten game period, so another thrashing could well be on the cards for Dinamo Zagreb.

Dinamo Zagreb have lost both of their trips away in the Champions League this season by at least three goals and were heavily beaten at home by Juventus. I’m expecting another heavy loss for them, so I’m going for a Juventus -2.5 Asian Handicap at 2.050 along with a 4-0 correct score predictions at 13/2.
