by Daniel Ngulu in Conference League Predictions
Almancil in Portugal will host the Conference League playoff first leg match pitting Lincoln Red Imps against Larne. Both sides will be looking to arrest inconsistent recent runs. Here’s our preview for the match and a prediction.
Playing as hosts, at a neutral venue, Red Imps will be eyeing some stability. They’ve been quite shaky in recent weeks, managing just a win in the last five matches. Their poor run has seen the team get eliminated in two European competitions already.
They started off in the Champions League, then Europa League and now here we are. Red Imps won their home leg Europa League match against Dinamo Minsk but lost on aggregate. In their most recent game, they lost on post-match penalties against St. Joseph’s in the Super Cup.
Northern Irish side Larne can afford some positivity coming into this game. Facing Lincoln Red Imps at a neutral venue is a good start. Further, the visitors are coming into this game on the back of a win on post-match penalties against Ballkani.
They won the away leg 1-0 and will be looking to replicate the same here. However, the same problems affecting Red Imps have been witnessed at Larne. They have three defeats in their last four matches, and managed just one goal in that run.
Their only goal came with a win and clean sheet away from home in the last round of this competition. They started their journey in the Champions League but that ended in straight defeats before dropping here.
