Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb Game Preview

Hapoel Beer Sheva and Dinamo Zagreb open their Europa League league phase in Bucharest, both landing here after falling short in Champions League qualifying this summer.

Be'er Sheva are back in the main phase of a UEFA competition for the first time since 2022/23, arriving after a 6-4 aggregate loss to Sabah in the Champions League playoffs.

Dinamo return as regulars at this level, but only after a demanding qualifying run that ended in a 5-3 aggregate defeat to Viking despite Arber Hoxha finding the net.

There is history between them: Dinamo won a 2018 Champions League qualifying tie 7-2 on aggregate, and Be'er Sheva are still chasing a first win over Croatian opposition.

Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb Recent Results

Be'er Sheva reached this stage after losing 6-4 on aggregate to Sabah, winning the first leg 2-1 before a 5-2 defeat after extra time in the return.

Dion Beljo is the danger man, netting 10 goals in 18 major European outings across the last two seasons and opening the scoring in each of his seven goalscoring games this term.

Injuries & Suspensions

Hapoel Beer Sheva: Igor Zlatanovic (Injured/out), Dan Biton (Injured/out), Itay Rotman (Injured/out), Lucas Ventura (Injured/out), Djibril Diop (Suspended), Eliel Peretz (Suspended)

Dinamo Zagreb: Bruno Goda (Injured/out), Dani Rodriguez (Injured/out), Aleks Stojakovic (Injured/out)

Hapoel Beer Sheva

Be'er Sheva are stretched, missing Igor Zlatanovic, Dan Biton, Itay Rotman and Lucas Ventura through injury, with Djibril Diop and Eliel Peretz both suspended. Zlatanovic's absence stings most after he scored three times in European qualifying. With several midfield options gone, expect a more conservative setup that protects the back four. Ofir Marciano starts in goal, and Amir Ganah and Javon East should support Adrian Ugarriza up top in these Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb lineups.

Dinamo Zagreb

Dinamo have far fewer worries, with Bruno Goda, Dani Rodriguez and Aleks Stojakovic the only confirmed absentees. Dominik Kotarski should start in goal behind a back four of Moris Valincic, Sergi Dominguez, Scott McKenna and Matteo Perez Vinlof. Josip Misic, Miha Zajc and Luka Stojkovic are expected to control the midfield, with Mateo Lisica and Arber Hoxha flanking Dion Beljo, who remains Dinamo's biggest threat.

Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb Prediction & Best Picks

Our Prediction

Give me Dinamo Zagreb to edge this one. The numbers back the visitors, projecting a 1-2 scoreline in Bucharest, and that fits the eye test: a depleted Be'er Sheva side is missing too many regulars to shut down an attack scoring in game after game. Expect goals at both ends, but Dinamo's greater quality up front should be the difference in a game that stays open throughout. That is our Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb prediction.

Best Picks

Both Teams To Score – Yes. This is a pick in the Both Teams To Score market, and it makes plenty of sense here. Dinamo carry an active 13-game scoring streak but have been leaky in Europe, while Be'er Sheva have seen both sides find the net across five of their last six outings, so the value stacks up on both ends filling.

Over 2.5 Goals in the Total Goals Over/Under market. Projections point to an open contest with a combined total near 2.96 goals, comfortably clearing this line. With Dinamo's front line firing and Be'er Sheva light on defensive cover, there is little here to suggest a stubborn, low-scoring affair.

Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Dinamo Zagreb Talking Points

Dinamo arrive with a warning sign. On September 12, 2026, they were beaten 4-2 away at Osijek in the SuperSport HNL, snapping a 28-game domestic league unbeaten run right before this European opener. That is a rare wobble for a side that has been scoring for fun, and it hands a depleted Be'er Sheva outfit a sliver of encouragement. The Israeli side are without a stack of regulars, but they have already won at this Bucharest venue during qualifying this season, so the setting is not unfamiliar. Dinamo's defensive record in Europe is the real concern, having conceded 22 goals in last season's Europa League, which is exactly why the goals markets look so appealing in this matchup.
