Having lost to Reykjavik in the local championship, Valur managed to win 3 victories in a row in the championship. It would seem that they organized a good mood for themselves, but they got under the Slovenian attack and conceded 3 unanswered goals. The task of advancing further is almost impossible, especially since the match will take place on a foreign pitch.
It is clear that the hosts are the favorites in this pair. But I do not think that the Slovenes will go to hammer the opponent in the second game, considering that they have made a comfortable reserve. And after the defeat to an outsider at home - to Triglav, the confidence of Maribor surely becomes less. Valur did not play after the game with the Slovenes and retained more strength on the one hand, and on the other, it got more prepared for the game with the hosts. Well, I also note that Maribor is not so good at home, while the visitors have not lost with a difference more than 2 goals on the foreign fields for a long time. It is likely that Maribor will just play competently in defense and will not spend a huge amount of forces on the attack. Given all this, you can take a chance and choose a good handicap of an outsider.
Prediction for the match: Valur to win with +2.0 handicap
