Bruno Petkovic played only 30 minutes of the first leg and missed Dinamo’s win on Sunday, so is a doubt for this one.
Villarreal vs Dinamo Zagreb Preview
Villarreal dominated possession in the first leg but it was a game of few real chances, settled only by Moreno’s penalty following a handball by Kevin Theophile-Catherine.
However, the reverse fixture could be a far more exciting affair considering Emery’s men have kept just one clean sheet in their last 10 home matches in all competitions while netting in nine.
Dinamo cannot afford to rest on their laurels and will surely go out with at least some attacking intent as they look to add to their tally of eight goals in five Europa League away games this season.
Villarreal vs Dinamo Zagreb Tips and Predictions
Both teams to score is offered at 6/5 (2.20) with bet365 for this Europa League quarter-final clash, and looks a strong odds-against selection considering it has paid out in eight of Villarreal’s most recent 10 at Estadio de la Ceramica.
