Match announcement
Lugano
Current form
Lugano has shown good results this season. In the national championship, the club is in second place after Basel in the standings. In the last round, they managed to confidently win against Zurich with a score of 4:1, so the team is currently in good shape.
Lugano cannot boast of stability on the European stage. The team sometimes surprises, not in a good sense of the word. Just look at the big defeat in the last round from Backa Topola with a score of 1:4, although in that match the Swiss club was a huge favorite. Despite the failure, the club is in 11th place in the tournament table and clearly has no desire to go down in the ranking.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alliseda is injured and Botiseda will not appear on the field due to disqualification.
Interesting trends for betting
- Lugano have won their last five home matches
- The hosts have conceded goals in three games in a row
Probable lineup: Saipi - Zanotti, Papadopoulos, Haidari, Marques - Doumbia, Grgic - Steffen, Dos Santos, Chimignani - Vladi
Gent
Current form
Last weekend, Gent lost to Anderlecht in the national championship with a crushing score of 0:6, so it is far from certain that the club is approaching the upcoming match in a good mood.
In the Conference League, the Belgians predictably lost to London Chelsea 2-4 in the first round, but then managed to beat Molde (2-1) and Omonia (1-0). The visitors prefer to develop attacks through the flanks, quickly switching from defense to attack. Their favorite weapon is high pressing, which may well work in the upcoming match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fadiga, Omgba, Gambor, Fortuna, Varela and Vanxa are injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Gent have failed to win six away games in a row
- The visitors have kept clean sheets in three of their last four matches
Tentative lineup: Rough - Samosi, Watanabe, Torunariga, Brown - Delorg, Ito - Sardez, Gandelman, Sonko - Dean.

1.70Tip and bets
The teams play active football with many chances. We expect the match to end with a high score, so the bet on both teams to score looks promising. Lugano has scored in 13 consecutive home games, while Gent has failed to score in only two games over the last ten.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.60
Bet on the outcome
Lugano is the favorite because of the home field factor, where they have not lost for seven matches in a row. Gent, as a rule, does not lose two games in a row. At least, this has not happened this season. Considering that the Belgians were badly beaten in the last match, they will not allow themselves to suffer a second fiasco. Let bet on the visitors not losing in this match.
Our prediction is Gent will not lose with odds of 1.55
Bet on corners
From our description it is clear that the teams prefer to play open football. This means that there is a high probability that there will be many corners in the upcoming match. We will make another bet on the over total for them.
Our prediction: total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.77
