KuPS will be hoping home advantage can make the difference when they welcome Shamrock Rovers for the decisive second leg. As Shamrock are not regarded as good travellers, we predict a 2-1 home win. The first meeting ended 1-1, although the Finnish side struggled to create much, managing only seven goal attempts. They now need to improve in the final third after suffering a disappointing 4-2 defeat to Mariehamn in the national championship. KuPS have won just two of their last 10 matches at home, scoring 1.40 goals per game while conceding 1.80. Polish forward Piotr Parzyszek could provide an attacking boost after scoring as a substitute in the first leg.
Shamrock Rovers, meanwhile, have a major weakness to overcome on the road. The Hoops are winless in their last four away matches, losing three and picking up just 0.25 points per game during that spell. They have also conceded 2.50 goals per away game across their last 10. Dan Cleary and Rory Gaffney are both expected to miss out through injury, which could further weaken the visitors. With the tie finely poised, another competitive encounter looks likely.
As home advantage should prove crucial against a Shamrock side with a poor away record, Home Win is our main betting tip, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Shamrock's away games average 3.25 goals, while KuPS' home matches average 3.20).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 27 August 2026 at 16:00.
