Dinamo Zagreb play host to Ludogorets in the second leg of their Champions League qualifying third-round clash on Tuesday.
The Bulgarian outfit were condemned to a 2-1 defeat in last week’s reverse leg and will be seeking to overturn their deficit.
Dinamo Zagreb were denied a fourth straight win in the 2022-23 HNL campaign as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Varazdin last Friday.
They are now unbeaten in each of their last 18 games across all competitions, dating back to April’s 1-0 loss against Hajduk Split.
They have now turned their attention to the Champions League qualifiers where they will be looking to pick up where they dropped off last time out, when they saw off Ludogorets 2-1 away from home.
Meanwhile, Ludogorets head into Tuesday on a run of one win from their last four games across all competitions, losing twice and claiming one draw in that time.
They are currently second in the Bulgarian top flight after picking up 10 points from their opening four games of the new season.
Ludogorets are unbeaten in all but one of their last six away games in all competitions, claiming four wins and one draw.
