INTRODUCTION

Dinamo Zagreb managed a very good 1-1 draw in the first leg against Young Boys from Switzerland and they have the advantage of home ground in the second leg now. Both sides still have a chance to reach the group stage but the team from Croatia have the advantage of the away goal now.



DINAMO ZAGREB

They are well aware that they still have a very difficult 90 minutes to play tonight compared to the first leg which ended in a 1-1 in Bern last week. Even though they will enjoy the support from the crowd at the Maksimir stadium in Zagreb, that could actually put more pressure on them in this match. After the first leg ended in a 1-1 draw they are now forced to go on the attack from the start of this match and that will put them at risk at the back which did not play well in the first twenty minutes of the first leg. After they conceded in the first leg, they managed to come back and scored the equalizer. That was how it stayed until the end of the match and now they will hope they have the advantage playing at home for the second leg. Last weekend they won for the fourth time in their domestic championships and they remained at the top of the standings. Now due to injuries they will not have the services of goalkeeper Livakovic and midfielder Moro.



YOUNG BOYS

They had expected to win the first leg but that did not go to plan. They have a reputation of playing attacking football at their home stadium in Bern, but what they had planned went horribly wrong. They did take the lead as early as the second minute when Mabau scored for them. However, Dinamo Zagreb's striker Orsic scored to put things level. That result stayed until the end as they failed to get any shots on goal past goalkeeper Zagorc in Young Boys goal. Their fans are still optimistic that they can progress to the group stage in Zagreb tonight. They will have striker Assale back in their side and he did scored two goals in his return to the team when they beat Xamax 5-2. They still have a 100% record in the Swiss Championships as they have won all their games so far. As for the team news, due to injuries they will be without the likes of defender Lotomba and midfielders Lauper and Tixeira.
