Breidablik vs Zrinjski Prediction and Betting Tips | 17th August 2023

Zrinjski visit the Kópavogsvöllur to face Breidablik on Thursday in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League third qualifying round, with the aim of getting the job done.

The Nobles ran out 6-2 victors in the first leg and a place in the Europa League playoffs seems all but assured for them.

Six goals inside 55 minutes from Tomislav Kis (2), Matija Malekinusic (2), Nemanja Bilbija and Antonio Ivancic had Zrinjski cruising, but Breidablik pulled back two goals late on.

Anton Logi Ludviksson and Gisli Eyjolfsson were the scorers for the Blikar, who need to win the second leg by five goals to reach the next round, an unlikely prospect.

Breidablik's defense has been fragile of late, having also conceded six times against Copenhagen in their last European qualifier, followed by a 4-3 loss to Reykjavik in the league.

At this rate, their wait for a first appearance at a major European tournament is set to continue.

Zrinjski will be eagerly anticipating the prospect of facing their opponents again this week, although head coach Krunoslav Rendulić could opt to make a few changes to his lineup for the second leg. With the tie very much in the bag, and their league campaign set to begin on Sunday, the Nobles could field a changed lineup here.
