Molde vs Legia Warsaw Prediction & Match Preview

Molde are set to host Legia Warsaw at Aker Stadion in the first leg of their forthcoming Conference League knockout match.

Molde’s last competitive encounter, which took place two months ago, saw them lose 5-1 to Leverkusen in the Europa League, causing them to finish third in Group H, get eliminated from the competition, and be dropped to compete in the UECL.

The hosts would, although likely, feel somewhat optimistic given they were also following a six-game unbeaten streak prior to their defeat to Leverkusen.

Molde had since also played two Atlantic Cup warm-up matches against Midtjylland and FC Copenhagen, winning one and losing the other, respectively, to get themselves going.

Their opponents, Legia Warsaw, on the other hand, finished second in their Conference League Group E standings and returned from their midseason winter break with a 1-0 victory over Ruch Chorzow, placing them fourth in the Polish Ekstraklasa.

That being said, the majority of Legia’s impressive performances have been at home, while their difficulties on the road are evident after they have also only won two of their previous six competitive away matches and also suffered three losses in that span.

Recent Meetings

• The two sides have only ever faced off twice in the past, with both of them coming in 2013 in the Champions League, when both matches ended in a draw, the last of which being a 0-0.

Molde vs Legia Warsaw Prediction

While both teams are in a similar shape, Molde holds an edge here owing to their home advantage, where they are also on a competitive three-game unbeaten run against a Legia side that has underperformed in a number of recent away matches.

Therefore, a victory for Molde at 2.31 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.

For the second tip, the odds of 1.66 for both teams to score look quite attractive. Given that the hosts have scored 13 goals in their past five competitive home matches. While the visitors have also found the back of the net seven times in their last four UECL matches.
