FAQs: NEC vs Dinamo Zagreb

How can I watch NEC vs. Dinamo Zagreb in the U.S.?

You can watch NEC vs. Dinamo Zagreb on Surprise Stream at surprisestream.com. It offers a free preview before you subscribe; no U.S. TV channel is confirmed here.

What time does NEC vs. Dinamo Zagreb start in the United States?

Kickoff is scheduled for Thursday, October 22, at 12:45 p.m. ET. That is 11:45 a.m. CT, 10:45 a.m. MT and 9:45 a.m. PT, so West Coast viewers will need to tune in during the morning.

Where is the match being played, and which team is at home?

Dinamo Zagreb hosts NEC at Stadion Maksimir in Zagreb, Croatia. The fixture is an away match for NEC, with the Dutch club traveling to Dinamo’s home ground.

What competition stage is this, and what does Matchday 3 mean?

The game is part of the 2026–27 UEFA Europa League and falls on Matchday 3. It is a league-phase fixture, so the result contributes to each club’s position in the competition standings rather than deciding a knockout tie on the night.

What results did NEC have immediately before the Zagreb trip?

NEC’s two most recent matches on its fixture page before the trip were a 1–1 Europa League draw with Levski Sofia on October 15 and a 2–2 domestic draw with Fortuna Sittard on October 18. That leaves NEC coming into the away fixture after back-to-back draws, including one in European competition.
