There is Europa League Qualifying Round action this week at the Bravida Arena in Gothenburg as BK Hacken host Spartak Trnava in the second leg of their tie. The Wasps will host The White Angels, holding a 1-0 lead over their Slovak visitors from the first leg at the Anton Malatinsky Stadium. Will our prediction for this match back the home side to progress or can the visitors turn this tie around?

The first leg was an even game of relatively few chances for either side and saw just four shots on target combined in the match. It was BK Hacken who made the breakthrough, however, when Severin Nioule netted on 63 minutes to hand them a slender advantage to take back to Sweden for the second leg.

Since the win in Slovakia, BK Hacken extended their winning run to three games. They had beaten Elfsborg 2-0 away from home before the game in Trnava last week and then on Sunday, ran out comfortable 4-1 winners over Halmstad at home in the Allsvenskan, a result which leaves them eighth in the table at present. 

The Slovak league is not yet underway, so Spartak Trnava have had the benefit of a week's rest since their first leg defeat at home. However, their form isn't great as they have suffered two more 1-0 home defeats in the run-up to the first leg with BK, against Borac and Petrolul.
