Dinamo Zagreb - Arsenal Olympiakos - Bayern Munich elo ratings suggest favourites Arsenal and Bayern are too short at current odds of 1.53 and 1.49 and are worth opposing. Arsenal's recent AWAY record in the Champions League is better than Zagreb's home one, but not by enough to justify Arsenal's odds. In their only previous CL meeting in 2006, Arsenal won 3-0 in Zagreb. Olympiakos' recent HOME record in the Champions League compares well with Bayern's AWAY one. Olympiakos have won 8 of their last 10 home CL games beating some top sides including Arsenal, Manchester United, Atletico Madrid and Juventus. Bayern have won 4 and lost 4 of their last 10 CL away games Mid-priced handicap bets of interest: Dinamo Zagreb +1.25 1.93 Olympiakos +1.25 1.97 Both with 188Bet Stake: 5 points on each Total stake: 10 points

Well these are the away games Arsenal thrive in. Zagreb are the dominant force in Croatia with technical superiority and class in their league. They aren't adept at defending against serious world class attacks and we see them as light weights in defence but always capable of scoring against sides. Arsenal will need to watch Algerian international Soudani who is good, but overall if Dinamo want to pass it around and create chances then ultimately Arsenal should cut them to pieces. Where I would be more doubtful of Arsenal getting a win is if they traveled to one of those less technical and more physical sides who just wanted to sit in and break up the play. That's when Arsenal get stifled and are more likely to slip up.

Is it worth punters going for Arsenal -2 handicap then or sticking with our suggestion of the Arsenal -1 handicap?
Both good value in my opinion. Personally I'd still be a bit careful with -2 because it is the first game after all, and Arsenal might be content after they,hopefully, go up by 2. -1 does look very good indeed, -2 might be worth a shot with lower stakes depending on the odds. Toto was right, Dinamo can't defend, and the coach said that they'll "play their game" and not just defend. A team like Dinamo can only do damage to a team like Arsenal if they are very tough and organized in defense, which isn't the case here.

I am Dinamo fan too ( now in boycot) , and I know this team very well. It is a clear away win - Arsenal @ 1.53 and this is very good odd, it should be arround 1.3, that would be more realistic. Also Arsenal -1 @ 1.9 is very good. Only thing that could save Dinamo losing by few goals is fact, that Arsenal have derby game this weekend against Chelsea, and they will probably try to save their energy for that game. Dinamo play style of football which Arsenal like, attacking - opened, not physical strong. You will see, Arsenal players are much faster, and stronger. And atmosphere on stadium will not be hot, it will be very friendly, because the loudest fans , and ultras ( Bad Blue Boys ) are in boycot. When these teams played in 2006., on stadium was 38.000 loud fans, and atmosphere was amaizing. This time it will be maximum 20.000 people, regular, friendly fans, and it will be very pleasant to play for Arsenal players. So, like I said: Arsenal @ 1.53 10/10 Arsenal -1 @ 1.90 5/10 Good luck !

Horrible night last night. Expecting Chelsea to dominate tonight but will hold off firing on any Chelsea players till HT. I expect Barca to dominate against Roma. Messi and Neymar should shine tonight so.. £3 buy of Messi at 122 £5 buy of Neymar at 85 Tempted to buy Monreal at 53 will decide later

Although I expect Arsenal to win tonight, Zagreb play an open attacking game limiting the Arsenal players ability to pass the ball around in the opponents. Think a couple of the Arsenal players are priced too high.. £4 sell of Cazorla at 118 £2 sell of Ramsey at 85
