GNK Dinamo Zagreb v Chelsea Betting Tips [6 September 2022]

Dinamo Zagreb are set to host Chelsea in one of the very first matches of the UEFA Champions League group stage. This Match Day 1 clash in Group E pits two sides that are coming from wins in their domestic games, and both seeking flying starts in Europe. Dinamo Zagreb have been superb in their recent matches and come here on four straight wins, but they have no clean sheet in these five matches. Both teams have scored in four of their last five matches and each of the last four matches has produced over 2.5 goals. Dinamo Zagreb have scored two or more goals in each of their last four matches. In their last four matches, Dinamo Zagreb have scored first, and gone on to win.

Chelsea haven’t found their balance yet, despite investing heavily in the just concluded transfer window. They are coming from a 2-1 win over West Ham United but it came under very controversial circumstances. That was the fifth straight game in which they failed to keep a clean sheet, but the third time in five that they scored more than a goal. In their last five matches they have conceded more than a goal in three, and each of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. In the five matches, they’ve failed to score in just one. The Blues will hope their bad days away from home don’t show up here, as they have two straight losses in away matches.

Chelsea haven’t been at their best, but this is a game they should really show their best side. In defence especially, they’ve struggled and the arrival of Wesley Fofana should offer some solutions. Dinamo Zagreb are also not so good defensively, but they come here on a good run, winning all their last four matches. They will also be at home and are expected to be very confident heading here. With both sides somehow stable in attack but not defensively, we will back them both to score.
