Prediction: 0-2
Lech Poznan
Kauno Zalgiris play host to Lech Poznan at Darius and Girėnas Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting second-leg Conference League qualifier. The first leg in Poland saw Lech Poznan seize control with an impressive 3-1 victory, setting the stage for a challenging encounter on Lithuanian soil. The good news for the visitors is that talented midfielder Filip Marchwinski has overcome his injury.
Kauno Zalgiris, driven by their home advantage, will be determined to rally and overturn the two-goal deficit, but they will have a mountain to climb in the reverse fixture. Since Lech Poznan will have a number of opportunities to score on the break, we are tempted to put our money on the Polish outfit. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Thursday;s showdown, but both Dolznikov and Silkaitis should sneak into the starting XI.
