LiontipsUniversitatea Craiova - Maribor. Prediction (odds 2.05) and bets on the Conference League match
Command Analysis
Universitatea Craiova won bronze medals in the Romanian Championship last season. This allowed them to advance to the qualifying round of the Conference League, and to start it from the second stage. Their opponents were the tough Maribor, who are clearly not inferior in terms of play. In the away game, Konstantin Galka's charges were unable to even score, but they conceded twice. Now they need to play like the last match in their lives, otherwise there will be no chance of advancing further.
Maribor is a regular participant in European Cup battles, as every season it occupies a place in the top 3 of the Slovenian championship. Last year, they managed to take silver, letting Celje pass them. This allowed them to qualify for the Europa League, but somewhat unexpectedly they failed to get past Botev Plovdiv, losing 1:2 away and drawing 2:2 at home. And now Ante Simundzh's protégés are here and have a good chance of making it to the semi-finals of the qualification.

1.65Tip and bets
Universitatea Craiova is in a difficult situation, but we would not write off the Romanian club prematurely. After all, a two-goal loss is not a death sentence. Maribor is strong, but it is not an opponent that is impossible to beat, especially on their home field. If Plovdiv's Botev could do it, then the Romanians can do it too.
Our prediction is a victory for Universitati Craiova with odds of 2.05 in the Winline bookmaker
