LASK vs Slovan Bratislava prediction 03.11.2026 | Champions League

LASK opened the season with one of the biggest comebacks in modern football as they overcame a massive deficit to Celtic to secure the Champions League main phase. However, the start to the Austrian Bundesliga hasn't been good, given they are five points away from the top spot while playing one game more. In the Champions League, LASK blew their opportunity in the first round, having lost to AEK 1:0. That was their chance to collect points, but with a surprising 3:2 win over Sporting in the previous game, they gave themselves a chance. 

After a 2:1 win over Tirol, coach Dietmar Kühbauer spoke to the media. He said it was not a spectacular win, but a hard-fought one. The coach was really satisfied with a win, especially given the fact that they have played a month of games recently. Additionally, the coach confirmed Sasa Kalajdzic would be available for the Slovan game after missing the game vs. Tirol.

Slovan Bratislava had to go through the Qualifiers to reach the main phase, where they eliminated Iberia 1999, Mjallby, and Celje. However, in the main phase, they were completely dominated, losing all three games with a 1:13 goal difference. Yes, those matches were against teams like PSG, Stuttgart, and AS Roma, but it is still an atrocious record, and they would need a miracle to secure the next phase.

In the domestic league, they are doing fine, but are in 2nd place - five points away from the top spot and have played one game more than 1st-placed Dunajska Streda. So, overall, it wasn't a great season thus far.

After a 2:1 win over Podbrezova in the previous game, coach Yaya Toure spoke to the media. He said it was a difficult team and that the fatigue is definitely affecting them. However, the coach was happy with the number of chances created but unhappy with the team's finishing.
