Celje will be looking to make a flying start to their Conference League campaign when they welcome AEK Athens to their Stadion Z’dezele on Thursday evening. Celje enjoyed a very successful Conference League campaign last term and their current form must be giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of AEK’s visit. Albert Riera’s men proved their worth in back-to-back wins over Primorje (3-2) and Maribor (3-0) and we predict that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach against AEK Athens. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Franko Kovacevic, who has found his goal-scoring touch in late September.
Meanwhile, Marko Nikolic’s troops head into the match following a hard-fought 1-0 win over Volos. Given AEK’s attacking potential and Celje’s signs of improvement up front, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Both Roberto Pereyra and Zini miss out with injuries, while Peru international Alexander Callens is out of contention with heart problems.
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 2 October 2025 at 20:00.
