Prediction: 3-1
Ludogorets
Fenerbahce play host to Ludogorets at their Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in the third round of the Conference League group stages. The Yellow-Blues look unstoppable at the moment, with the team eyeing their 17th consecutive win in all competitions and seeing that Ismail Kartal can count on key players for Thursday’s encounter, home win should be considered. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Edin Dzeko, who found the net in a 4-2 win over Hatayspor at the weekend, while fellow striker Joshua King misses out with injury.
Ludogorets, on the other hand, failed to impress in a goalless draw with Arda at the weekend and given their poor defensive display in an embarrassing 7-1 loss to Nordsjaelland, we are going to bet on the home team. The good news for the visiting team is that captain Anton Nedyalkov has overcome his injury.
Highlighted Player (Miha Zajc):
Born in Sempeter pri Gorici, Slovenia, Miha Zajc started his career in Interblock, recording only five appearances before moving to NK Olimpia on a loan deal. In season 2013/14, the attacking midfielder made 13 appearances in the Slovenian Prva Liga, netting 5 goas in the process.
After yet another loan deal, now with Celje, Miha Zajc moved to NK Olimpia on a permanent deal. The player can perform as an attacking midfielder and as a central midfielder. During his 81 appearances for NK Olimpia, Zajc scored 20 goals and recorded 12 assists, which was good enough for the Empoli officials to sign the 24-year-old for about €1.7 million.
In 2017/18, Zajc helped Empoli win Serie B with 8 goals and 14 assists. Thanks to his good performances, he made his debut for Slovenia national team in March 2016 and has played in 5 games so far, with one goal on his tally.
