All eyes will be on Easter Road when Hibernian and Shkendija square off against each other in the Conference League third qualifying round, first leg. Hibernian will be eager to bounce back from a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Motherwell in their Scottish Premiership opener after successfully negotiating their second qualifying round tie against Malisheva. The Edinburgh outfit have won five of their last ten matches in all competitions, averaging 1.8 goals per game, but defensive consistency remains an issue as they have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of those outings. Injuries to Bushiri, Cadden, and McGrath reduce David Gray's options, though Hibs will still look to make home advantage count in the opening leg.
Shkendija, meanwhile, progressed by eliminating Bravo and arrive in Scotland full of confidence after winning seven of their last ten competitive matches. The North Macedonian champions have impressed at both ends of the pitch, averaging 2.0 goals scored while conceding only 0.9 per game. Their away form has been less convincing, but they remain a dangerous side capable of punishing defensive mistakes. Forward Fabrice Tamba is expected to miss out through injury, yet Shkendija still possess enough attacking quality to make life difficult for the hosts in Edinburgh.
Hibernian should make home advantage count despite recent injury concerns. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside BTTS and Hibernian Over 1.5 goals (Hibernian have seen BTTS land in 70% of their last ten matches, while Shkendija are dangerous going forward).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 6 August 2026 at 20:00.
