Bloomfield Stadium will host a fascinating Conference League playoff decider as Maccabi Tel Aviv look to overturn a 2-1 deficit against Lugano. The Israeli side head into the return leg full of confidence after a convincing 5-2 league victory over Hapoel Jerusalem. Maccabi have won seven of their last 10 matches, scoring 2.30 goals per game, and will be hoping to carry that attacking momentum into Europe. Ben Harush and Abu Farkhi are both pushing for starts after impressing off the bench in the first leg, while there are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts.
Lugano, meanwhile, have been in outstanding form, winning nine of their last 10 matches and averaging a remarkable 3.70 goals per game. Mattia Croci-Torti's men also created the better chances in the first leg, registering 2.11 xG, and arrive in Israel with the benefit of having rested at the weekend. Therefore, there should be no concerns about tired legs for the Swiss outfit. Former Wolfsburg attacker Kevin Behrens will be one to watch as Lugano attempt to protect their narrow advantage.
The first leg produced BTTS, while both sides have plenty of attacking quality. Therefore, Both Teams to Score seems like the best betting option, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals (Lugano's last 10 matches have averaged 4.40 goals per game).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 27 August 2026 at 17:00.
