Brann vs Astana PREDICTION & BETTING TIPS - 22/08/2024

Brann will be aiming to build on a thrilling 4-0 win over Fredrikstad when they take on Astana in the Conference League final qualifying round, first leg. Brann have been showing signs of improvement of late, especially up front, and, as a result, the bookies see them as favourites to win Thursday’s encounter. The likes of Simba, Torsvik, and Wassberg have been struggling with injuries of late, while there are no suspended players in the home team.

The Kazakhs, on the other hand, rolled over Hunedoara 8-2 on aggregate to set up a meeting with Brann in the Conference League playoffs. As Astana are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach on Thursday evening, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Nigeria forward Chinedu Geoffrey, who has been scoring goals for fun of late.
