Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Shkendija will be aiming to move one step closer to booking their place in the Conference League second qualifying round when they take on Haverfordwest on Thursday evening. Shkendija defeated the likes of Petrolul, Rogaska, and Gorica in pre-season, while losing to FK Sarajevo. The North Macedonia outfit are seen as hot favourites to beat the Welsh in front of home fans and given the number of high-profile players in Ardian Nuhiu’s troops, home win should definitely be considered.
Haverfordwest, on the other hand, were beaten by Larne (0-2) and Penybont (0-1) in the last two warm-up games. Since the Welsh side have been struggling in front of goal of late, we are tempted to put our money on Shkendija. It has to be noted that this is Haverfordwest debut in the Conference League, while Shkendija have already recorded three wins in the competition.
