Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Kauno Zalgiris welcome Valur to their Darius and Girenas Stadium in the Conference League second qualifying round, first leg. Kauno Zalgiris did well to beat Penybont in round 1 and they must be high on confidence following a 3-0 win over Dainava Alytus. Defender Eduardas Jurjonas is available for selection despite his sending-off at the weekend.
Valur, on the other hand, are on an eight-game winning run in all competitions ahead of the trip to Lithuania. Given Valur’s excellent form and Kauno Zalgiris’ attacking potential at home, there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of Thursday’s clash. A man to watch in the visiting side will be Denmark striker Patrick Pedersen, who has already netted 14 goals in the Iceland national championship this season.
