Kilmarnock vs Copenhagen: Conference League match prediction
Kilmarnock and Copenhagen will face off in the return leg of the Conference League's final qualifying round. The Danish club won the first leg 2-0. Will the Scots be able to turn the tide of the encounter on August 29 or will the Danes hold on to their advantage? The answer is in our prediction
Command Analysis
Kilmarnock
ScotlandCurrent form
Kilmarnock started their European campaign in the Europa League, but were immediately eliminated, having failed to cope with Cercle Brugge (1:2 on aggregate). In the Conference League, the Scottish club beat Norwegian Tromso. At home, they drew 2:2, but managed to unexpectedly win away with a minimal score of 1:0. Clearly, Kilmarnock was not ready to play on two fronts, while things are going very badly in the national championship - two defeats in two matches. Plus, they also played a match in the 1/8 finals of the League Cup, where the hosts lost to Motherwell in extra time.
Disqualifications and injuries
Everyone in the Kilmarnock squad is healthy and ready for the match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Kilmarnock have won just one of their last nine matches.
- In the team's four previous matches, no more than one goal was scored in the first half.
Probable line-up : McCrory, Mayo, Wright, Findlay, Bainbridge, Armstrong, Lyons, Donnelly, Kennedy, Vassell.
FC Koebenhavn
DenmarkCurrent form
Copenhagen started the Conference League qualification with an easy win over Magpies from Gibraltar with an aggregate score of 8:1. There were expectations and predictions that they would be able to confidently deal with Banik. However, in the end, the teams exchanged home victories with a score of 1:0, but the penalty shootout went to the Danish club. In the last matches of the championship, the current bronze medalist played a draw with Viborg (1:1) and lost away to Nordsjaelland (2:3). So far, the Lions occupy only the fifth line in the domestic championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Copenhagen are without defenders Nicolas Boilesen, Birger Meling and Rodrigo Hoyskas, midfielders William Clem, Thomas Delaney and Rooney Bergey, and forwards Jordan Larsson and Andreas Cornelius.
Interesting trends for betting
- Copenhagen have failed to win in the first half in four of their last five matches.
- Copenhagen's previous five matches have not seen more than two goals scored.
Probable line-up : Trott, Dix, Garananga, Vavro, Gocholeishvili, Lerager, Falk, Mattsson, Elyounoussi, Oscarsson.
Trends
Bet At least one team will not score
This bet has played in the last five matches of the hosts
2.00Bet Exact score 0:2
The visitors have won their last two games with this score.
8.50Bet Number 2 in the final score
This pattern has worked in three of the visitors' last five matches
2.32Tip and bets
The hosts are currently in terrible form and have not scored a single goal in the last three matches. The visitors will certainly try to play according to the score and will not be too persistent in attack. It is unlikely that the return match will be more productive than the first.
Our prediction is under 2.5 goals for 2.05
Bet on the outcome
Kilmarnock have suffered four defeats in their last five matches, so there is little hope for the Scottish club to succeed in the upcoming match. The visitors are unlikely to field their main squad, but the hosts will probably rotate as well. In that case, the visitors will probably win the return match.
The second bet is for Copenhagen to win with odds of 1.65
Bet on the first half
Even in the home match, Copenhagen failed to gain an advantage in the first half. We think that this time the Scottish team will not give in in the first 45 minutes.
Prediction - Kilmarnock will not lose in the first half with a coefficient of 1.65
