Hibs and Aberdeen should secure a safe passage in to the next round of Europa Conference League qualifying after doing much of the hard work at home last midweek.
Hibs take a 3-0 lead to Andorra following a chaotic first leg which saw three players sent-off and five yellow cards. Jack Ross will be hoping for a more placid affair, without too much hullaballoo to set up a tie with either Gżira United (Malta) or Rijeka (Croatia).
The Hibees are just 1/3 to win but they’re 11/8 to win to nil again or you can have 2/1 on them scoring two or more whilst keeping a clean sheet on a Bet365 BetBuider. In his match preview KevMac points out that seven of Santa Coloma’s last nine home games in Euro qualifiers have seen under 2.5 goals however so it may not be much of goals fest.
Aberdeen impressed in their 5-1 win over Swedish side BK Hacken at Pittodrie last week. Despite the gulf in class the bookies make the Gothenburg side favourites at 13/10 to win, versus the 17/10 on the away win.
Should they emerge unscathed from the second leg, Aberdeen will face Austria Vienna or Breidablik in the third qualifying round and Dons fan Mark Walker reckons it could be another entertaining encounter. Hacken have to go for it and have been in decent scoring form, so there’s potential for Aberdeen to pick off their opponents on the break.
Other ties look much closer to call but home wins for Rosenborg (2-0 up from the first leg in Iceland against FH Hafnarfjördur), Bohemians (1-0 winners against F91 Dudelange from Luxembourg) and Hapoel Be’er Sheva (2-0 ahead of Arda from the first leg).
Hats off to Greg MacLean who made it two winners in as many days with a tidy even money Double to add to 71/50 BTTS Double on Tuesday. Keep an eye out for of Greg’s tips ahead of the weekend.
