The Croatian league winners will have to take all three points in order to see their first European spring in 41 years. Facing them will be Greek side PAOK, who took the points in Thessaloniki after a freak keeping error by young netminder Ivan Kelava put them up 1:0.

This time, however, the Greeks will be without a number of first-team players. It was known earlier that PAOK would be traveling to the Croatian capital without defender Stylianos Malezas and attacker Zlatan Muslimovic. But the 24 Sata daily reports that defender Zuela and midfielder Vitolo suffered injuries in PAOK's Greek league match against Larissa. Furthermore, PAOK striker Vladan Ivic is also out with an ankle injury.

However, the situation in Zagreb is not much brighter. Dinamo's back line will be thin against PAOK with Igor Biscan suspended after getting carded against Villareal, while left back Leandro Cufre is questionable with a possible knee injury.
