LNZ Cherkasy will try to claim a major scalp when they face Gent in the first leg of the Conference League second qualifying round, with the Belgian side starting as favourites despite facing a well-organised opponent. LNZ enjoyed an encouraging preseason, winning four of their last six warm-up matches, and they will be hoping to transfer that form onto the European stage. The Ukrainian outfit have built their success on defensive discipline, conceding just 0.6 goals per game across their last ten outings while keeping five clean sheets. Ghanaian striker Mark Assinor, who scored eight goals in the Ukrainian Premier League last season, will once again be the main attacking threat for the hosts.
Gent, meanwhile, arrive in confident mood after wrapping up preseason with a convincing 2-0 victory over Twente. The Belgian club have strengthened their squad during the summer, with Mouhamed El Bachir Ngom, Josue Vergara, and Laszlo Benes all expected to make their official debuts. Gent possess considerably greater European experience and should have enough quality to control possession and create the better chances, even though LNZ are likely to prove difficult to break down. With the Ukrainians expected to stay compact, the visitors may have to be patient before finding a breakthrough.
As Gent boast greater quality, depth, and European experience, we are tempted to place our bets on Away Win, alongside Gent to Win to Nil and Under 2.5 goals (LNZ have conceded only 0.6 goals per game across their last ten matches and are expected to adopt a cautious approach).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 23 July 2026 at 19:30.
