Borac Banja Luka – Omonia Predictions and Preview

  • The fans of Borac Banja Luka are getting excited because they are about to make history. The Bosnian club knows that if they avoid defeat in their final game in the league phase of the UEFA Conference League, they will become the first team from their country to reach the knockout stages of a major European competition.
  • This would be a huge achievement for Mladen Žižović’s team, which is already having the best run ever in a UEFA tournament. So far, they have won two of their five games (D1, L2), and after a short dip earlier this month when they lost back-to-back games across all competitions for the first time since August — including a 3-0 thumping against Shamrock Rovers on matchday five — Borac is coming into this clash with an important victory at the weekend, beating Sloboda 3-2.
  • The team that will try to stop them from progressing is Omonia Nicosia, which has boosted its own hopes of reaching the knockout play-offs by winning 3-1 at home to Rapid Vienna in their most recent Conference League game. If they pick up another victory in Bosnia, the Queens will be playing European football after Christmas for the first time.
  • With six points so far (W2, L3), even a draw could be enough for Giannis Anastasiou’s team to finish in the top-24. Anastasiou suffered the first loss of his temporary reign at the weekend (W2, D1), and he will be keen not to let any negativity get the better of them as they prepare for their third away assignment of this league phase. The previous two ended in defeats ‘to nil’.
  • Players to watch: Borac’s Đorđe Despotović scored a brace at the weekend, extending his run of unbeaten club appearances when scoring to 13 matches (W10, D3). Trying to outgun him will be Omonia’s Andronikos Kakoullis, who scored and assisted on matchday five and has netted six of his last eight strikes after half-time.
  • Hot stat: Omonia have not drawn any of their 12 away games this season (W6, L6), with the team who scored first winning on each occasion.
