Vaduz hosts Hibernians in the 1/8 finals of the Europa League qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, August 27th at Rheinpark Stadion (Vaduz)
Vaduz promoted to the highest division at the end of last season. Now the club from Liechtenstein will play in the top league of the Swiss championship. Vaduz showed a super-productive game in the First League. The goal difference was 78-53. And the friendly match on the eve of the upcoming meeting ended with a 3-1 score. However, it was in the Swiss championship, which is one of the most scoring in Europe. This tournament is completely different, and the rival knows how to shut out.

Hibernians finished in 3rd place in the last championship. The Maltese championship is much less scoring than the Swiss one. And the goal difference of the bronze medalist (34-20) confirms this. During the preparatory period for the new season, the team played three friendly matches. And two of them were not rich in goals.
I propose to bet on a small number of goals in this meeting because the confrontation consists of one match. When the teams play two times, there is an opportunity to win back, and an away goal is often decisive. None of this will happen here. Vaduz will probably change its game style. It will not run headlong into the attack but will try to play as reliably as possible in defense. The Maltese do not need to change anything in their schemes. A reliable game in the rear is their priority, and when they manage to score first, they put a double-decker in front of their box. In the upcoming game, Hibernians will surely shut out during the entire game. And Vaduz (with all due respect) is not Bayern or Barcelona, which would breach the "buses" several times. The fans will probably see some goals in this match, but hardly more than three. The specificity of the tournament does not allow the teams to open up and arrange goal extravaganzas.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.5 goals scored
