Partizan to prove to0 strong at Stade de Luxembourg
Partizan Belgrade enter Thursday's UEFA Conference League Qualification encounter with UNA Strassen as the clear favorites (1.47) against the hosts odds (5.95), so we're going to side with the Serbian heavyweights in the moneyline market here in this UNA Strassen vs Partizan Belgrade preview.
In our UNA Strassen vs Partizan Belgrade prediction, Saša Ilić's side have been more proactive this season, looking to control the game, stretch play wide and get up the pitch to pressure opponents when out of possession. It's a more direct approach to the game than we've seen in previous seasons, but it has seen them dominate games in a different way, turning over opponents more often higher up the field.
Partizan's last two games were a 2-2 away draw with FK Zemun followed by a 4-0 thumping of Strassen at home. They have won 5, drawn 4 and lost just 1 of their last 10 in all competitions, so they are in good nick overall.
UNA Strassen are also in decent form (W5, D3, L2 in their last 10 in all comps), but their 4-0 defeat to Partizan has shown the difference in skill between these two sides. Jeremy Deichelbohrer's side are a neat, compact side that like to sit narrow, stay organized and create chances on the break.
Control vs counter clash in Luxembourg
Their most recent European run saw them take their time to get going, winning 1-0 at home against San Marino side Fiorita in the last round, before running out 2-0 winners away to the same opponents. This UNA Strassen vs Partizan Belgrade prediction points to Strassen being tough to beat at times and their home performance in all competition stands at four wins and one draw with no goals conceded. This is a tidy, compact outfit that will play to their strengths and try to nick second balls and make fast breaks.
Partizan are the more polished side and should control the ball and create more chances in this encounter, but they haven't been a runaway team away from home this term (W1, D3, L1 from 5). We're backing them to win the match, but the odds and Strassen's home form suggest it could take a while for the Serbian side's quality to tell, so we're also expecting a competitive first half.
Zubairu Ibrahim can be a real spark for Partizan when he's on his game, as his two goals in one UEFA Conference League Qualification game so far suggests. Nicolas Perez is Strassen's dangerman with two goals in three matches in this competition and three in their last five-game run.
Our UNA Strassen vs Partizan Belgrade betting tips suggest the 1.47 odds for over 2.5 goals means that the bookmakers don't think this will be a cagey game, and we agree, Partizan should dominate this one. That is why our UNA Strassen vs Partizan Belgrade prediction leans firmly toward the visitors.
