Pogon Szczecin vs Gent Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Europa Conference League Qualification on Thursday, 17 August 2023.
Gent sealed a motivating 5-0 win in the first leg of this clash last Wednesday. The match saw Gent’s Nigerian striker Orban scoring a hat-trick. It was hist third consecutive goal-scoring match too.
While Orban was enjoying a hat-trick, Gent’s Belgian striker Cruypers scored a brace, sealing the game completely in his team’s favor. Do also note that Cruypers have scored 11 goals in the last 8 matches of Gent across all competitions.
Even though Pogon Szczecin have a home advantage this Thursday, we don’t expect them to deliver much against this Gent side, following such a destructive firepower.
They have met just once in the past and the match ended in a 5-0 win for Gent.
Gent looks to have an impressive form on the road. They have won the last four road trips across all competitions in a row.. Meanwhile, Pogon was having a winning form at home before losing to Radomiak Radom in their latest home outing.
It is worth noting that Pogon’s latest home matches include their domestic match-ups in majority. Thus, we expect a win for Gent yet again this Thursday.
Gent have delivered a goal fest in the first leg of this match. On the road, they have been scoring goals at better rate too. In that case, we expect this match to have goals in plenty.
The desperation of Pogon, losing their first match conceding a big lead will definitely force them to deliver their best offensive display on Thursday. Their consistent attacking performance in the recent home matches forces us to back the both teams to score option here.
Gent have already secured their chances of advancing further. They will be safe even if a draw happens at Szczecin. However, we expect a win for them by the looks of things.
For the main betting pick, we like to place Gent to win at 2.00 odds. Over 2.5 goals at 1.65 is our second pick considering the goal-scoring form of Gent.
