The hosts will be looking for their first point in the UCL campaign.

After a disappointing start to their UEFA Champions League (UCL) campaign, RB Salzburg will be looking to bounce back on track in their third league phase fixture against Dinamo Zagreb. The defending champions of Austria have experienced a mixed run of form and have been highly inconsistent across all competitions this season. They have lost both of their opening games and are placed 34th in the table.

Dinamo Zagreb on the other hand have not had a great start either. The Croatian side conceded nine goals in their curtain-raiser against Bayern Munich before playing out a 2-2 draw in their last UCL outing. However, they have enjoyed a good run of form coming into this game having won four and drawn two in their last six outings.
