Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Slovacko
Match Time & Date:
27/10/2022
18:45
Prediction: 2-1
Koln
Both Slovacko and Koln will look to keep their Europa League knockout stages hopes alive when they face Koln at Mestsky stadion Miroslava Valenty on Thursday. Slovacko did well to upset Nice in their last group game, meaning that they are brimming with confidence ahead of the visit of Koln. Petr Reinberk, who scored as a substitute in the Allianz Riviera clash, is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Billy Goats, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Partizan, with the team suffering a heavy 5-0 loss to Mainz at the weekend. Given Slovacko’s display in the triumph over Nice, we predict that the visitors will return home empty-handed. All Andersson, Chabot, Lemperle, Limnios, Ljubicic, Olesen, and Thielmann should miss out with injuries for the visiting side.
