Legia Warszawa vs Zrinjski Prediction (09.11.2023)

Legia Warsaw are top of the table in Group E of the Europa Conference League, and this Thursday they look to cement their position at the top with another win. Zrinjski are the visitors, a team that grabbed an opening win but have lost twice since, although in a wide open group, it is still all to play for.

Two wins from three games so far, it's been a strong start and Legia Warsaw have put themselves in a good position for qualification to the next round, though there is still a lot of football to be played. They will have marked this one down as the game they must win, as it provides them with the best opportunity.

These two met in their most recent European game, and Legia came out on top 2-1 in a close game. That was a game away from home, and they now come here back on home soil, so should feel more comfortable, and have the knowledge that they've beaten this team recently.

An opening day win got Zrinjski off to a solid start in the Europa Conference League, but it's been two defeats since then, and they need a spark to bring them back around, and maintain their hopes of qualification. The win was a wild game, they beat AZ Alkmaar 4-3 at home, but now we need to see more.

A 1-0 loss at Aston Villa came next, and then they were beaten 2-1 at home by their opponents here, Legia Warsaw. I don't think it was a bad performance in that game, but the task they face here is going to be tougher, with the added problem of playing the game away from home.

While Zrinkski are respected, I can only see a win for Legia Warsaw here. They went away from home and won the first meeting between the teams, I think they'll come here and finish the job by winning the home game.
