St. Mirren finished fifth in Scotland and after more than 30 years returns to the European stage. They did it with a goalless draw in Iceland in their first match of the new season, and now they hope to eliminate their opponent on their home turf, who also does not have a successful history in European tournaments.
Historically, Valur has had many participations in European tournaments, but almost all of them were just formal. They rarely manage to eliminate any opponent. Now they have already done it and eliminated Albanian Vllaznia after a draw at home and a 4-0 victory away. They will try again to win away in the rematch against St. Mirren after last week's draw.
Prediction: St. Mirren to winSt. Mirren has not been in European tournaments for a long time, but they did not give up as guests against Valur in the first match. The guests have already eliminated one opponent, which rarely happens, and will try to repeat this success now, but I expect it for St. Mirren in the end.
