Midtjylland and Dinamo Zagreb both have plenty at stake on Thursday night (20:00, Discovery+) when they go head-to-head in the Europa League at MCH Arena.

Alex Jack provides his best bets in his Midtjylland vs Dinamo Zagreb prediction piece, as well as all the essential team news and match odds for the encounter in Herning.

Team News

Midtjylland will have to do without striker Franculino and defender Adam Gabriel, as they continue their recoveries from surgery.

Former Bournemouth midfielder Philip Billing is a doubt after he was forced off against Brann with an injury, while Ola Brynhildsen is also set to miss out after a recent knock.

Football Odds

As for Dinamo, Ismael Bennacer was forced off after just 23 minutes in their last game against Osijek and faces a race against time to be fit for this game in Denmark.

Dion Drena Beljo, Goda Bruno and Valincic Mori are all just one yellow card away from picking up a suspension that would come into effect if Zagreb qualify for the knockout stage of the Europa League.

Midtjylland vs Dinamo Zagreb Odds

Midtjylland are the 4/5 favourites to claim all three points on Thursday night, while Dinamo are 3/1 underdogs for the victory.

A draw at MCH Arena is 3/1, while over 3.5 total goals to be scored on the night is available at 7/4.

Midtjylland to win and both teams to score @ 9/4

Only one of Midtjylland’s last six games in the Europa League have witnessed less than three goals and another high-scoring affair might well be on the cards in this one.

While the Danish domestic season is yet to start during the winter months, Midtjylland have been able to focus solely on progressing to the knockout stages of the Europa League. Currently up in fourth place in the league phase standings with five wins in their seven games, Midtjylland know a victory would guarantee them a place in the top eight.

Against a Zagreb side who have won three of their seven games in this competition this term, Midtjylland look like good value to win on home soil.

Dinamo should have their moments in this game though, as they have scored 12 goals in the Europa League this season and it would be little surprise to see them get on the scoresheet here.

Dion Drena Beljo anytime goalscorer @ 2/1 

Only one player has scored more goals than Dion Drena Beljo’s four in the Europa League this season and the Zagreb forward is backed to get on the scoresheet again on Thursday, as his side look to wrap up their place in the playoffs.

The 23-year-old has impressed since making the turn to his homeland after a spell in Germany and the Croatia international is good value to add to his collection of goals in the Europa League this week.
