When you start knockout football in Europe, we have many games that are tight and cagey affairs, this tie was not one of them last week, and I don't expect that to be the case again. Legia Warsaw are behind, but host here, with the visitors Molde bringing a 3-2 lead with them, as both sides look to throw everything at this game, in a bid to quality for the knockout phase of the Conference League.
Legia Warsaw Form GuideI think everyone associated with Legia Warsaw, including fans, will see that they were incredibly disappointing last week in the first half. They were 3-0 down at half time, they conceded three goals in the space of 12 minutes, it was a start they will want to forget, and luckily for them, they did in the second half.
Although not enough to win the game, certainly enough for them to get back in it. Two goals saw them leave Molde with a 3-2 deficit, so just one behind as we come here, and had you asked any Legia fans when they were 3-0 down, they wouldn't have thought that was possible.
Molde Form GuideWas last week the chance that slipped away for Molde? If they go into this game thinking that, then they're going to be eliminated, instead they need to focus on the positives and that was being 3-0 up and completely dominating the game in the early stages.
More of that, and Legia will have a lot to deal with. They come here fresh too, as they didn't play at the weekend, something else that is only minor, but may be enough to help. I don't think Molde can sit back with their lead, they are going to have to attack here.
Match PredictionA big game, and it's tough to call a winner here, so I'll avoid that. Instead, I think more goals are on the cards. Both look good going forward, both can cause the other team problems, so to keep it simple here, I am going with both teams to score in this game.
