Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Stadiumi Fadil Vokrri will host Thursday’s Conference League game between FC Ballkani and Shamrock Rovers. The Kosovars outplayed Floriana in round 2, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against the Irish outfit. Albanian tactician Orges Shehi has no fresh injury worries ahead of the first leg. The Hoops, on the other hand, eliminated St Josephs of Gibraltar in their Conference League double-header.
FC Ballkani, though, are tough to beat in front of home fans and that is the main reason why we are going to place our bets on draw. Defender Trevor Clarke remains in the recovery room, but the 27-year-old should be the only absentee in the visiting team. Rory Gaffney is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a goalless draw with St Josephs. It has to be noted that FC Ballkani and Shamrock Rovers have never met before in European competitions.
