Zalgiris vs Slovan Prediction: Expect a low-scoring encounter

Zalgiris will take on Slovan in the final round of the UEFA Conference League group stage. Let’s find out how the opponents are doing & what the best bet is. There are several options to consider!

Zalgiris still has a theoretical chance to make the Conference League playoffs. To do so, the home team must win the upcoming game and hope that Pyunik does not defeat Basel. On the eve of the sixth round, the team closes the standings of Group H, losing to the first Slovan and the second Basel by three points. In their last three matches, Zalgiris defeated Hegelmann 2-1 and Dziugas Telsiai 6-0 in the domestic league, and also tied the score with Basel in round five of the Conference League group stage (2-2).

Slovan have very little left before the long-awaited Conference League playoffs. In order to qualify, they need to win at least, but if they do, they run the risk of ending up in the knockout rounds, which would be quite unpleasant. That's why the team from Bratislava intend to take only three points away from Vilnius. Slovan approaches the fateful game after four wins in a row: 1-0 over Michalovce, 4-1 over Skalica, 2-1 over Pyunik and 1-0 over L Mikulas.

It is quite difficult to determine the favorite in this pairing, given that the opponents parted with a nil draw in the first round. Both teams have a strong tournament motivation, so we do not expect a large number of goals. They will play cautious soccer, as the price of error is too high. We would not be surprised to see another scoreless draw. In general, we suggest betting on Total Under for great odds.
