Our prediction for this Europa League match:
Stadionul Municipal will host Thursday’s Europa League qualifier between Hunedoara and Paks. Against all odds, Hunedoara won the first leg 4-0 and they are now on a quest to defend their big lead in front of home fans. A man to watch in the Romanian side will be Marius Lupu, who scored a brace in the first leg. Florin Maxim has no fresh injury worries ahead of the reverse fixture.
The Hungarians, on the other hand, need a big win in the return leg if they are to sneak into the Europa League second qualifying round. As the visitors are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in the Stadionul Municipal clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Balint Szabo is banned for the visiting side, with fellow midfielder Balint Vecsei likely to sneak into the starting XI.
