Lillestrom vs SJK Match Analysis and Prediction

Lillestrom will host SJK at the OmaSp Stadion in the second leg of their Europa Conference League second qualifying round tie on Thursday night.

Lillestrom were the favorites to win the first leg and lived up to that expectation as they claimed a 1-0 win over SJK in Finland last week, thanks to Dragsnes’ 68^th minute goal.

The win saw them claim their fourth victory in their last five games across all competitions and will be looking to extend the run on Thursday as seek seal a place in the playoff round of the Conference League qualifiers.

 Lillestrom are string outfit and with a home advantage this time around we fancy them to secure a second-consecutive victory over SJK. They have not been in action since the first leg and will be well rested for the return leg.

Meanwhile SJK are disadvantaged in two ways heading into the second leg, as they are behind and will be playing at away. However, they should not be completely written off as they feel they still have a chance of progressing and since they have nothing to lose we expect them to take game to Lillestrom.

They are coming off a confidence boosting 3-1 away win over Lahti in the domestic league campaign and will be looking to build on the victory on Thursday.
