Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Pyunik Yerevan will look to build on a 2-0 win over Slovan Bratislava when they take on Zalgiris in the Conference League round 3. Pyunik aim to melt Basel’s advantage in the standings, but Thursday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for the Armenians. Experienced Serbian defender Zoran Gajic has yet to recover from a long-term injury.
The Lithuanian outfit, on the other hand, have been struggling up front in the Conference League this term, and seeing that they have yet to find the net in Group H, home win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Yerevan. In their last meeting in a competitive match, back in 2013, the two sides played out a 1-1 draw, and given Zalgiris’ difficulties in front of goal, yet another low-scoring affair is on the horizon.
