Match announcement
Shamrock Rovers
IrelandCurrent form
Shamrock have been doing well in this Conference League so far, at least for their level. In four rounds, the team has not lost a single time – two draws and two wins. The team managed to beat the Irish representative Larne (4:1) and The New Saints (2:1). The team shared points with APOEL (1:1) and Rapid (1:1). So far, Shamrock has scored twice as many goals in the tournament as it has conceded – eight goals scored and four conceded. In the table, it is in tenth place with eight points, the gap from four opponents above, most of whom are in the top 8, is only one point.
Ireland is currently in the off-season. The last championship ended in early November. Shamrock became vice-champions, losing to Shelbourne from first place by just two points at the finish.
Disqualifications and injuries
The Irish are without Rory Gaffney, who is injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Shamrock conceded a goal in all four rounds of the LC
- Two of the club last three official games ended with a score of 2:1
Tentative line-up: Pauls - Cleary, Grace, Lopez - Burns, O'Neill, Watts, Poom, Honohan - Kenny, Farrugia
Borac Banja Luka
Bosnia and HerzegovinaCurrent form
Borac is performing slightly worse in this Conference League compared to its opponent in this round. The difference is that instead of two draws, like Shamrock, the club has drawn once and lost once. It suffered losses in the matches with Panathinaikos (1:1) and Vikingur (0:2). It beat the representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina APOEL (1:0) and LASK (2:1). Thus, Borac has seven points, which currently provide it with 15th place. However, four opponents above it have the same number of points. The team has scored and conceded an equal number of goals in the tournament so far – four each.
The Bosnian championship is in full swing. Borac is currently third, fighting for second place – the leader is already ahead of its pursuers. In the last round, the red-blues lost, breaking a long series of victories.
Disqualifications and injuries
Goalkeeper Nikola Cetkovic is likely to miss the match against Shamrock due to injury.

1.95Tip and bets
Bookmakers believe in Shamrock success a little more. Probably because of the home status of the game for them, and also because of the number "0" in the defeat column in the tournament. But we still give preference to the guests here. Borac is in good shape, they are playing their home championship, in which they have recently been on a winning streak. In the European Cup, the Bosnians have also performed a little worse so far - they have lost one more point. Shamrock has recently played only friendly games and European Cups. So it will be difficult for the hosts here.
So we bet on Borac to win with odds of 3.15
Bet on total
We don't think the game will be productive. Borac has often scored no more than two goals in recent away games without conceding. As we said, Shamrock is not in the best shape right now. So we can't expect many goals from them either. The opponents will probably play defensively against each other.
We choose a bet on total under 2.5 goals for 1.65
Bet both teams to score
In most of the recent games, especially away games, Borac either scored itself or its opponent scored. But in most cases, it was the red-blues who won with a clean sheet. We believe that there is a high probability that this will happen now.
We bet that at least one club will not score - odds 1.85
