Breidablik vs Zorya Luhansk Prediction

Zorya managed to avoid a defeat at the start of their UEFA Conference League group phase campaign two weeks ago by holding Belgian side Gent to a 1-1 stalemate on the neutral venue of Arena Lublin.

The Ukrainian outfit did not show much in the final third on the occasion but somehow found the late equalizer from the rare look at the rivals’ goal.

The team led by Valeriy Kryventsov now have an opportunity to pick up the first three-pointer of the campaign on Thursday evening with the trip to Iceland.

They will take on group underdogs Breidablik in the second round of the competition at Kopavogsvollur.

Breidablik are not pulling up any trees these days. They have conceded four goals in each of the successive domestic league defeats to Valur and KR.

Oskar Hrafn Thorvaldsson’s men lost five of the last six games in all competitions, shipping t least two goals in each of the defeats along the way.

The run involves a 3-2 loss at the hands of Maccabi Tel Aviv two weeks ago on Israeli soil. Breidablik conceded three first-half goals and only managed to find two consolation strikes when their counterparts pulled a hand brake.

Breidablik are third in the top flight of Icelandic football standings after 26 rounds of the competition with as many as 22 points between them and leaders Vikingur Reykjavik.

Latest Meetings

This will be the first match between Breidablik and Zorya.

The Verdict

Breidablik lack quality for this level of competition but Zorya have really not shown much either so far in the season. The visitors have won only one of eight domestic league games this term.

Nevertheless, the difference in quality between Icelandic and Ukrainian football is still significant and we can find the value in backing the away win at the 2.40 odds. Also, Breidablik shipped four goals in each of the last two domestic league games which is why we will alternatively back Zorya to net two or more goals on Thursday at the 1.90 odds.
