Prediction: 1-1
Lausanne
Astana will be looking to overcome a two-goal deficit in the tie with Laussane when they two teams face each other at Astana Arena on Thursday. Ivan Basic’s late goal in the first leg revived Astana’s playoffs hopes, but they still need a big win in the reverse fixture to progress to the Conference League final qualifying round. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Laussane’s visit.
The Swiss outfit, on the other hand, are seen as favourites to win this double-header, but they can’t afford any complacency in Thursday’s encounter. Forward Alban Ajdini is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the first leg, while both Enzo Kana-Biyik and Alvyn Sanches are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered as Astana need to go all-out attack this time out.
