Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Expect an electrifying atmosphere at Stadion Gradski in Niksic when Sutjeska and Beitar lock horns in the first leg of the Conference League second qualifying round. Sutjeska did well to upset Dynamo Brest in round 1, with the team overcoming a one-goal deficit on the road. As a result, the Montenegrins must be brimming with confidence ahead of Thursday’s encounter. Forward Ivan Vukcevic is pushing for a start after scoring the opener in the 2-0 win over Dynamo Brest.
The Israelis, on the other hand, impressed in their last warm-up game, with the team rolling over Ypsonas 7-0, while defeating Maccabi Haifa 2-0 in the Toto Cup. Given the number of high-profile players in the away team, we do not believe that Sutjeska are capable of claiming yet another major scalp in the Conference League qualifiers. A man to watch in the away team will be summer signing Yarin Levi.
