Borac Banja Luka will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing Champions League qualifying exit when they host Petrocub in the Conference League second qualifying round first leg. As Petrocub have been struggling defensively of late, we predict a 2-0 home win. The Bosnian side suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Levski Sofia in their last European outing, but their overall form remains encouraging, with Borac winning five of their last ten matches and losing only once in that period. Head coach Vinko Marinovic is expected to make changes to the starting XI, with Hrelja and Vukovic pushing for a place in the lineup. Borac have been particularly strong defensively, conceding just 0.9 goals per game across their last ten matches and keeping five clean sheets, while their home form has been a major strength.
Petrocub, meanwhile, are also looking to recover after a nightmare Champions League qualifying campaign, suffering a heavy 6-1 defeat to Egnatia. The Moldovan champions have struggled defensively lately, conceding 2.5 goals per game away from home across their last ten outings and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last four matches on the road. Their attacking numbers remain respectable, with Petrocub scoring 1.7 goals per game overall, but their defensive problems could prove costly against a well-organised Borac side. Adding to their worries, midfielder Ion Bors is likely to miss out through injury.
Borac Banja Luka have lost only once in their last ten matches and boast a strong home record. Given Petrocub's shaky defence, our main prediction firmly points toward Home Win, alongside Borac Over 1.5 goals.
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 23 July 2026 at 19:30.
