Match background Only this chapter

Croatian champions Dinamo Zagreb made it five successive UEFA Europa League victories with a 3-2 win at Krasnodar in the first leg of this round of 32 tie and will be confident of sealing the deal at the Stadion Maksimir, where they are on a lengthy unbeaten run in this competition.

• Dinamo Zagreb are Croatia's last remaining European representatives having enjoyed a superb autumn in the UEFA Europa League, going unbeaten through Group K as they claimed 14 points to finish first ahead of Wolfsberg, Feyenoord and CSKA Moskva. Krasnodar are also Russia's last team standing, though they managed just one win and five points from UEFA Champions League Group E, finishing below Chelsea and Sevilla but four points ahead of fellow debutants Rennes.

Previous meetings
• Krasnodar's first UEFA fixture against opposition from Croatia did not go to plan as the Russian side twice fell behind to Bruno Petković goals, and although they recovered to equalise on both occasions, through Swedish internationals Marcus Berg – with his 26th European goal – and Viktor Claesson – on his 50th appearance in UEFA club competition – the final say went to the visitors as Dinamo's Nigerian striker Iyayi Atiemwen wrapped up the scoring 15 minutes from time.

• Dinamo drew 0-0 away to CSKA Moskva on Matchday 2 before defeating them 3-1 on Matchday 6, the Russian side's late consolation goal, from Croatian midfielder Kristijan Bistrović, preventing Dinamo from becoming the first team to go through a UEFA Europa League group stage without conceding.

• Dinamo's other three matches against Russian clubs have all been against Spartak Moskva (W1 L2), with one win and one defeat in Zagreb.

Form guide
Dinamo
• Dinamo romped to their 21st Croatian title last season, completing a hat-trick of 1. HNL triumphs. They also reached the UEFA Champions League group stage for the seventh time, finishing fourth in their section behind Manchester City, Atalanta and Shakhtar Donetsk with five points – their best return in the competition for 20 years.

• Dinamo began this European campaign under returning coach Zoran Mamić by overcoming hosts CFR Cluj on penalties in the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round, but then lost 2-1 at Ferencváros before defeating Flora of Estonia 3-1 at home in the UEFA Europa League play-offs to reach the group stage of the competition for the sixth time. As in 2018/19, they won four and drew two of their six games to top the group, getting the better of Feyenoord (0-0 h, 2-0 a), CSKA and fellow qualifiers Wolfsberg (1-0 a, 3-0 h).

• This is only the second time Dinamo have qualified from a group stage in any continental competition, the previous occasion having come two years ago, when they won their round of 32 tie, beating Viktoria Plzeň 4-2 on aggregate (1-2 a, 3-0 h) before falling to Benfica after extra time in the round of 16.

• Dinamo are undefeated in their last 12 UEFA Europa League home games, qualifiers included, winning nine of them and scoring 25 goals. In European competition overall Manchester City's 4-1 win in Zagreb on Matchday 6 of last season's UEFA Champions League is Dinamo's only home defeat in 15 matches (W10 D4).

• There have been 20 previous UEFA ties in which Dinamo have won the first away leg, and they have gone on to qualify on 17 of those occasions, including the last five, which have all been in the qualifying phase. The three eliminations have all come after victories by a one-goal margin, most recently by Aalborg in the third qualifying round of the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League (1-0 a, 0-2 h), though they have never previously taken a 3-2 lead into a second leg at home.

Krasnodar
• Third in the Russian Premier League for the second successive season in 2019/20, a campaign in which their European ambitions ended in the UEFA Europa League group stage, Krasnodar qualified for the UEFA Champions League group stage for the first time this term, thanks to a pair of 2-1 wins against PAOK in the play-offs.

• Krasnodar's presence alongside Zenit and Lokomotiv Moskva gave Russia three teams in the UEFA Champions League group stage for the first time, but while their domestic rivals could only finish fourth in their sections, Murad Musaev's side took third place in Group E, compensating for a 4-0 home loss to Chelsea and two narrow defeats by Sevilla (2-3 a, 1-2 h) with four points against Rennes (1-1 a, 1-0 h). They signed off from the competition with a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.

• European ever-presents since their maiden continental campaign in 2014/15, Krasnodar are competing in the UEFA Europa League round of 32 for the fourth time. They lost their first tie at this juncture, to Sparta Praha in 2015/16 (0-1 a, 0-3 h), but won the next two, against Fenerbahçe in 2016/17 (1-0 h, 1-1 a) and Bayer Leverkusen in 2018/19 (0-0 h, 1-1 a). They have never progressed beyond the round of 16.

• Krasnodar have yet to record a victory outside Russia in springtime continental competition, losing three of their five UEFA Europa League knockout phase matches and drawing the other two, though they have scored once in each of their last four outings.

• On the only previous occasion that Krasnodar lost the first leg of a European tie at home, they managed to overturn the deficit in the second leg and qualify, eliminating UEFA Champions League stalwarts Porto from the third qualifying round in 2019/20 on away goals when they followed up a 0-1 home defeat with a 3-2 victory in Portugal.

Links and trivia

• Berg and Dinamo defender Marin Leovac faced each other on seven occasions in Greek domestic competition while playing respectively for Panathinaikos (2013–17) and PAOK (2015–18), the Swedish striker scoring three goals in those matches.

• Berg scored for a Sweden side also containing club colleagues Kristoffer Olsson and substitute Claesson in a 2-1 defeat against Croatia in Zagreb in the 2020/21 UEFA Nations League. The home side featured Dinamo's Dominik Livaković and substitute Bruno Petković.

• Leovac was a half-time substitute for PAOK, who drew 0-0 against Krasnodar in the 2015/16 UEFA Europa League group stage, Ari and Yuri Gazinski also coming off the bench for the Russian side.

• Kévin Théophile-Catherine (Dinamo) and Rémy Cabella (Krasnodar) played together for Saint-Étienne in 2017/18.

5-6 v Sheriff, 2010/11 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round
6-5 v CFR Cluj, 2020/21 UEFA Champions League second qualifying round
