A Goal-Packed Europa Showdown on the Horizon
Key Stats

Europa Conference League is in full swing with Hibernian gearing up to face Luzern in the third round of the qualifiers. Both teams are known for their aggressive gameplay, resulting in goals from both sides in recent matches. Let’s dive deep into their current form, player performance, and make some predictions.
Hibernian’s Recent Performance:
The Scottish side, Hibernian, demonstrated their attacking prowess in the last round, as they surged from behind to crush Inter Club d’Escaldes with an impressive score of 7-3. The Easter Road fixture saw Hibs overpower their Andorran adversaries with a staggering 6-1 scoreline.

Yet, Hibernian’s defence remained a concern, having not managed a clean sheet in their last six games. Despite their defensive frailties, they’ve maintained their knack for finding the net, scoring in each of their last six matches.
Luzern’s Form Analysis:
The Swiss team, Luzern, haven’t been tight at the back either. Their recent 2-1 defeat to St Gallen took their both-teams-to-score streak to four consecutive games. This includes both legs of their last Europa Conference League qualifying fixture against Djurgardens. Their European track record presents a mix-bag; they’ve had setbacks against strong teams like Feyenoord and Espanyol but have also managed draws, such as their recent 1-1 tie against Djurgarden.
Players to Watch Out For:
Hibernian:
- Christian Doidge: With a BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 8.30, Doidge is a key forward to keep an eye on. His ability to be in the right place at the right time has proven invaluable.
- Adam Le Fondre: Another forward with a knack for goals, Le Fondre has an impressive rating of 7.20.
Luzern:
- Pascal Loretz: The young goalkeeper has been in stellar form with a rating of 8.00. His reflexes and shot-stopping abilities could be crucial in the upcoming game.
- Lars Villiger: With a commendable rating of 7.43, Villiger will be the Swiss team’s key forward. His agility and finishing skills might pose a threat to Hibernian’s shaky defence.
Predictions:
- Match Outcome: Given that both teams have been vulnerable at the back but prolific upfront, a bet on both teams to score seems like the most justified prediction. The past records reinforce this as both Hibernian and Luzern have consistently seen goals from both ends in their recent games.
- Correct Score Prediction: Drawing inspiration from Luzern’s recent European ties and their last encounter with Scottish opposition, a 1-1 draw appears to be a well-justified prediction for this fixture.
- Goalscorer Prediction: With a top-notch performance recently, Christian Doidge of Hibernian is our prediction to get on the score sheet. Given his form, he might also be the one to open the scoring.
