Maltese champions Hamrun and Lithuania’s Zalgiris will meet again in the return leg of their Champions League 2nd qualifying round on Tuesday. As the tie stands, Zalgiris are advancing, having won the first leg 2-0. If they stay in the lead, they will set up a match against Dynamo Kyiv next. Read on for our prediction.

With their backs against the wall, Hamrun will need a strong start here. Recent form will not be really inspirational, Hamrun having lost their last two matches.

They have failed to score twice in their last four outings and conceded four in the latest two. Hamrun rarely score more than a goal in their games, and as a result, eight of their previous 10 matches produced under 2.5 goals.

Zalgiris put themselves in a good place with their first-leg win and will be keen on completing the job. They head to this game having won each of their last three matches, and in the process, they scored seven goals.

Though their last two matches yielded clean sheets, the visitors are still not convincing defensively. They conceded at least a goal in seven of their last 10 matches, though they only failed to score in three.

Six of those 10 matches produced under 2.5 goals. They face a side without a Champions League goal in three straight games.
