VILLARREAL VS DINAMO ZAGREB PREDICTION

Villarreal hold a slender one goal advantage over Dinamo Zagreb, who travel to Spain more in hope than expectation. However, that was also the case in the round of 16, when the Croatian side stunned Tottenham by overturning a two-goal deficit. The Spaniards however, have proven themselves as defensively outstanding, having conceded just one goal so far from their five matches played in the knockout stages of the Europa League. Whilst their run of six straight wins in all competitions came to an end at the hands of Osasuna at the weekend in La Liga, Villareal not needing to take any unnecessary risks here should suit them perfectly, as the onus is on Dinamo Zagreb to push bodies forward in an attempt to score the goal Damir Krznar’s side need to bring the tie to parity. As they did against Salzburg and Dynamo Kyiv, the hosts are expected to utilise the quality within their frontline to capitalise on the extra space likely to be afforded to them inside the opposition half, which should lead them to victory in this second leg.
