UE Santa Coloma will be looking to reach the second qualification round of a European competition for the first time in their history when they host Ballkani on Tuesday evening.
After four years of absence from European football, the hosts return to Europe last season in the Conference League qualifying rounds, but history was repeated. They were eliminated in the first round by Breioablik and will be looking to get round revenge on Tuesday.
Balkáni meanwhile have been successful in Europe in recent seasons. They competed in the group stage of the Conference League in 2022-23 and 2023-24 and head coach Ilir Daja will be looking to have his side extend that record this season.
UE Santa Coloma vs Balkáni Betting Tips: Draw & under 2.5 goals
Both sides enter Tuesday’s game with plenty of confidence after winning cups in their respective countries. UE Santa Coloma won the Andorran Cup, while the visitors were winners of the national cup tournament in Kosovo.
UE Santa Coloma are unbeaten in 23 games across all competitions and should fancy their chances of getting a win, but their home record in Europe isn’t good. Ramón Calderé’s side have suffered defeat in each of their last eight European home matches, and failed to score in six of them. Each of the last two ended with under 2.5 goals.
Balkáni were also involved in plenty of low scoring games on the road lately. Each of the visitors’ last seven games away from Stadiumi i qytetit Suharekë ended with under 2.5 goals, and I fancy Tuesday’s game to end similarly.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- UE Santa Coloma vs Balkáni prediction: 0-0
