Prediction for Spartak Trnava vs Hibernians: Spartak to Win with a -1.5 Handicap at Odds of 1.59
I see Spartak as the clear favorite in this matchup. The team has a much stronger squad and plays in a league that is far more competitive than the Maltese championship, ranking higher in UEFA coefficients. On top of that, Spartak has beaten Hibernians in all five of their previous head-to-head matches, with a combined score of 17:3. Considering both teams' recent form and the history between them, I recommend betting on Spartak to win with a -1.5 handicap at 1.59.
Prediction for Győr vs Pyunik: Pyunik Double Chance (X2) at Odds of 1.88
I believe the visitors have every chance of avoiding defeat away from home. Pyunik has more European experience and, importantly, the Armenian side has already played two official matches this season — a valuable edge in terms of preparation. Győr, on the other hand, didn’t impress me physically in their last game, which makes me think their Conference League journey is coming to an end. I'm backing Pyunik not to lose (X2) at 1.88.
Prediction for Sabah vs Petrocub: Sabah to Win with a -1.5 Handicap at Odds of 2.19
Sabah made a strong impression in the first leg against Petrocub. Under Maharadze, Petrocub have been struggling in away games — they’ve lost five of their last seven matches in all competitions. Meanwhile, Sabah have been much more consistent at home, with three wins and two draws in their last six matches. Taking into account the result of the first leg, I recommend betting on Sabah to win with a -1.5 handicap at 2.19.
Prediction for Banga vs Rosenborg: Rosenborg to Win with a -1.5 Handicap at Odds of 1.78
Rosenborg are in peak form right now, and their recent results confirm that. Banga, meanwhile, are going through a crisis and seem more focused on avoiding relegation from the Lithuanian top division than mounting a serious comeback against the Norwegians. Rosenborg have scored 13 goals in their last four matches, so I recommend backing them to win with a -1.5 handicap at 1.78.
Prediction for Spæri vs Austria Wien: Spæri to Win with a +1.5 Handicap at Odds of 2.25
What are the chances that Spæri knock Austria out of the tournament? Let’s be honest — there aren’t any. Still, I believe Spæri can put up a solid fight at home. Austria are more than satisfied with the current aggregate score and have no reason to push forward aggressively or expose themselves defensively. For Spæri, hosting such a match is already a celebration, but I’m sure the team will do everything it can to avoid a heavy defeat. I’m taking Spæri to win with a +1.5 handicap at 2.25.
