Connahs Q. (Wal) vs HJK (Fin) Prediction & Betting tips
An interesting match on Thursday is Connah’s Quay and HJK for a new round of the Europa League (previous stage).
Connahs Q. (Wal) :
In my opinion, the Finnish side is slightly favored because of the greater hierarchy it has and especially because it is the largest in its country. For this reason and knowing that the Welshmen are out of rhythm in comparison with their rival, we advise you to play a few euros to the visit.
Take into account that Connah’s Quay is a Wales team that finished in second place in the general table. Of course, one detail to consider is that he finished far from the leader and champion TNS (27 points difference). He managed to score 45 goals and concede 24 on his fence, showing some balance between lines.
On the other hand, do not forget that the local box has not played for a long time, since his last official match for his league was on 22 April. As an added bonus, we can tell you that he has achieved different results in his stadium, with 9 wins, 5 equal and 2 downs (25 goals scored and 11 goals conceded). He closed with good numbers his walk in this condition, when registering 10 points of 12 possible. His last home game was against Bala Town and he won 2-0 on 14 April.
HJK (Fin):
Continuing with the analysis you should know that HJK is a Finnish team that is surprisingly playing the Europa League, as it always plays the previous phases of the Champions League. This time, he will not do it since the champion last season was the Mariehamn. These days, he leads the Veikkausliiga with 34 points in 15 appearances (10 wins, 4 draws and 1 single drop).
To finish we tell you that the visit has won 5 games consecutively, arriving in a positive streak. He has managed to score 36 goals and concede only 6 on his fence, demonstrating a more than striking balance (high scoring average and remarkable defensive solidity). It comes from beating 2-0 to the reigning champion Mariehamn a few days ago (June 22).
After everything said I play for a victory of the visiting team due to the following reasons: First because HJK is a great Finland, proving it over the last few years. Therefore, so has not classified the Champions for this season, the team remains competitive for this class of tournaments. Second because the Nordic box is in soccer rhythm, when playing parties of its local league. Besides, remember that he has won 5 in a row, proving a great effectiveness in offense and a defense more than iron. And third, because Connah’s Quay has not officially played in his home league since 2 months ago, and this may affect his footballing performance. Faced with this reality and knowing that the Finns have won their last two league outings (1-4 against Rovaniemi and 0-2 against KuPS), we believe that they can surpass the Welsh even if it is by a goal difference.
