Rijeka vs Lille Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the UEFA Europa Conference League Qualifiers on Thursday, 31 August 2023.
Rijeka are set to host Lille in the second leg of their Conference League Qualification tie at Stadion HNK Rijeka. Rijeka lost 2-1 in the first leg away from home. They will, however, now strive to emulate a strong showing at home, where they have been good for some time now.
Their opponents, Lille, have had a string of mixed results in their domestic league, and after benefiting from home advantage, they’ll be attempting to match that performance away from home.
Following the reverse fixture, this will be the second time both sides will meet each other. As previously reported, Lille won 2-1 at home in the first leg last week.
We are counting on Lille to pull off a win here. They have a fine form heading into this one. Two of their past three matches have ended in victories.
Rijeka, on the other hand, are currently struggling for form. Their last two matches have both ended in defeats.
We expect goals in this match. In six of Rijeka’s last seven matches, there have been more than 2.5 goals scored. Also, both of Lille’s past two matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.
In addition, the sole h2h meetings between these two have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Both teams have been scoring a decent number of goals in recent weeks. The hosts have scored at least two goals in each of their past five matches. While the visitors have scored five goals in their last three matches.
Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
Lille are in fine form heading into the match. They have won two of their past three matches. They also have a strong record against Rijeka. Furthermore, Rijeka has had a poor form going into the match.
A victory for Lille at 1.80 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
Furthermore, the both teams to score odds of 1.72 look quite attractive. Given both clubs’ strong attacking prowess and recent goal participation at both ends of the pitch.
