Celje will make one last push for a top-8 spot in the Conference League on the final matchday against Shelbourne Dublin. With only three points separating them and second-place Shakhtar, they might need more than a win to qualify, as goal difference comes into play. See our best match prediction here.
A win will take Celje to 12 points, but since up to 12 teams can finish matchday six with 12+ points, goal difference will likely be the top-8 decider. So for us, Celje will do everything to win this game with a multiple-goal difference, especially as they have the second-worst difference (+1) of the 12 teams that are eligible for the top 8.
But luckily for The Counts, they host a Shelbourne side who have failed to score even a single goal in this tournament. Shels have now lost four of their five Conference League games and conceded seven goals in total. What’s more interesting is that they lost by multiple goals to all the major teams they faced (2-0 to AZ Alkmaar and 3-0 to Crystal Palace).
As for Celje, they’ve won only three of their five games in this tournament, but won two of those three games with a -1 handicap. And Celje faced much more difficult opponents, beating AEK Athens 3-1 as underdogs and then Shamrock Rovers 2-0 away from home.
