Rijeka sets off to take on Derry City in the return leg of their Conference League second round qualifier. The visitors lead 1-0 from the first leg. As both have been in good scoring form, our prediction will be focused on the goals market.
Derry City have everything to play for, but the task doesn’t look insurmountable. The Northern Irish side needs two unanswered goals to progress, or at least one to level the tie. City started their European campaign in the Europa League.
They were, however, eliminated at the first hurdle as they lost both home and away to CSKA Sofia. Tiernan Lynch’s men lost 5-3 on aggregate against the Bulgarian giants, with the second leg at home ending 2-1.
That match saw a bit of crowd trouble, which forced a brief stoppage. The Candystripes have been in poor form, losing four of their last five outings.
Rijeka can protect their slim lead by taking into this game an attacking mindset. The first leg marked the visitors’ first match of the season. A lack of match fitness was expected, hence the low-scoring outcome.
Having reached the knockout round in this competition last year, Matjaz Kek’s men will be the favorites to progress to the next round. They are also strong candidates to qualify for the league phase.
The Croatian giants haven’t lost in seven games including preseason friendlies. In that regard, they are on a six-match winning streak.

Our Derry City vs HNK Rijeka Prediction
Our prediction for Derry City v HNK Rijeka is BTTS. Rijeka scored the only goal in the first leg, but this tie still hangs on a knife edge. As hosts, Derry City will be confident of overturning the tie. Banking on the support of the home crowd, the hosts can be expected to perform a little bit better in front of goal.
City are a strong attacking team, especially when playing at home. On the other hand, Rijeka can be lethal in attack, but playing away from home, they aren’t likely to be so robust defensively.
