Gorica vs Dinamo Zagreb Prediction: Every match is important for Dinamo

November will be difficult for the football players of Gorica, because after the defeat in Osijek, they still have three away games, one of which is in the cup competition against Varazdin in the round of 16, and at their stadium this Saturday from 17:00 they welcome Dinamo in the 13th round. It is well known that Zagreb’s club are dominant in matches against Gorica. In 25 championship matches since the 2018/2019 season, Dinamo have 20 wins, four draws, and only one defeat, and they won in the Croatian Cup twice in this period.

Form: LWLWL

Gorica will want to forget their last appearance in the league, losing 2-0 against Osijek. Mateo Les scored the only goal for Gorica, but it was an own goal in the 34th minute, while Petar Pusic set the final score in the 90th minute. Gorica have been struggling defensively lately, as they failed to keep a clean sheet in five of their last six games, conceding 11 goals in that period. In their previous home game, they were unbeaten, they won against Istra 1961, but their history against Dinamo in their last three league games shows that they have not been able to beat the Blues, which gives them extra motivation to end that negative streak.

Form: WWLWD

Dinamo Zagreb enters this match after a convincing 1-4 victory in the Champions League against Slovan Bratislava. Dario Spikic, Petar Sucic, and Sandro Kulenovic scored for the Blues, while Slovan Bratislava managed to score only one goal through David Strelec in the 5th minute. In the last six matches, Dinamo scored 12 goals and in each of those matches they scored at least once while conceding seven goals. With three consecutive games without defeat on the road in the league, Dinamo enters this match with great confidence, and their form shows that they are ready to continue their success, regardless of the difficult task that awaits them against Gorica.

Dinamo are the clear favorite in this matchup due to their better form, standings, and head-to-head ratio, and even though Gorica is playing in their own stadium, anything but a victory for the visitors would be a real surprise. Therefore, I believe that Dinamo will triumph in this match with at least a two-goal difference, and we will see more than three goals.
