Dinamo Zagreb vs Viking Tips & Predictions – Open Clash Expected in the Champions League Qualifiers
Dinamo Zagreb's prolific attack has seen them net 11 goals in just four UCL matches this season, suggesting an explosive contest against Norwegian side Viking, who are also in strong scoring form. With both sides showing offensive prowess, fans can anticipate a high-scoring affair in Croatia. Additionally, Dion Beljo stands out as a prime candidate to score, having hit the net five times in his last five appearances for the Blues. Betting on goals and Beljo to score anytime could offer value.

Dinamo Eliminated Two Teams so Far
Dinamo Zagreb had a lot of problems in the first UCL qualifying round against Thun, leaving Switzerland with a 1-1 draw with Miha Zajc netting late equalizer, then pulled a miraculous comeback at home to win 3-2 in extra time.
They didn’t have any issues in the next round, crushing Kauno Zalgiris 7-1 on aggregate (5-0 at home and 2-1 on the road). Lukas Kacavenda appeared on the scoresheet on both occasions.
The Blues are having a strong start to the new 1. HNL campaign, earning back to back victories against Slaven Belupo 2-0 and Rudes 4-0, Dion Beljo netting three goals total in these encounters.
Viking are the Norwegian Champions
Viking were automatically placed into the UCL qualifying playoffs after winning the Norwegian Eliteserien in the previous season.
Their numbers are looking strong in the ongoing 2026 campaign too, winning 13 out of 17 matches so far, but sit in second place one point behind Bodo/Glimt.
After starting the month with back to back victories against Start 3-0 and Sarpsborg 2-1, they were beaten by Rosenborg 2-1 in Trondheim last weekend, conceding deep in stoppage time.

Verdict
Dinamo Zagreb scored 11 goals in their four UCL matches this season. Viking are scoring for fun in Norway, so all signs are pointing at high scoring affair in Croatia.
