Lokomotiva Zagreb Rapid Wien betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Rapid Vienna's club should dominate possession since they have several quality players, while Lokomotiva Zagreb should act on the counterattack, looking for any space to attack. It should be noted that the two clubs have very competent offensive sectors and defensive lines with some flaws. Having said that and also taking into account the ambition of both teams to advance to the next phase of the Champions League, risking in favor of the "Over 2.5 Goals" market is a good option.

Preview
Lokomotiva Zagreb and Rapid Wien meet at Stadion Kranjčevićeva, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Champions League (2nd Qualifying Round). These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Lokomotiva

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the UEFA Champions League with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 12 conceded. In their last match, for the 1. HNL, they got a home win against Rijeka by (1‑0). In the last 10 home matches Lokomotiva Zagreb has won 8, tied 1 and lost 1. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times, but have turned the score around in 3.

Lokomotiva Zabreb arrive for this game with a 1-0 home victory over Rijeka, thus registering their first victory in the Croatian Championship 2020/2021. We remember that the home team reach this 2nd round of the Champions League after winning the 2nd position in the championship of their country. In this match against Rapid Vienna, coach Goran Tomic should keep the team in 3-4-1-2, prioritizing the organization of his block and counterattacks through the aisles: Ivan Celikovic is a very strong player in the offensive transition. All players are available for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Krunoslav Hendija, Stipo Marković, Fran Karačić, Marko Gjira, Ivan Celikovic, Kemal Osmanković, Denis Kolinger, Bartosz Pretnik, Mario Ćuže, Dino Halilović, Indrit Tuci.
Coach: S. Čabraja.

Analysis Rapid

The team plays its first match in this edition of the UEFA Champions League with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 31 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 9 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 26 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got a home loss against FC Pasching/LASK Juniors by (0‑7). In the last 10 away matches Rapid Wien has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 12 of the last 17 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 5 of their 10 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 5 of their 11 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Rapid Vienna come to this game with a heavy 0-7 defeat to Pasching, putting an end to the two consecutive victories in friendly matches. It should be noted that the visitors reach this stage of the Champions League as a result of the 2nd position in the 2019/2020 Championship of Austria. Now in this match against Lokomotiva Zagreb, coach Dietmar Kühbauer should keep the team in 3-5-2, with Ercan Kara and Fountas being the most advanced players of the visiting team. Leo Greiml is the boss of the defensive line: the central defender is very strong in the aerial game. For this game, the manager cannot count on Wunsch, Schuster, Velimirovic and Mateo Barac, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Richard Strebinger, Maximilian Ullmann, Filip Stojković, Leo Greiml, Maximilian Hofmann, Dejan Petrovič, Taxiarchis Fountas, Dejan Ljubičić, Thomas Murg, Ercan Kara, Kelvin Arase.
Coach: F. Feldhofer.
