Olimpija Ljubljana vs Koper tips and predictions

Koper epitomising role of outsiders in this one

Koper can cause a few problems here but they certainly deserve their underdog status and so it's not a great prediction at all.

The hosts are unanimously expected to win but they can be beaten. Olimpija Ljubljana's performances at home have not been vintage. They've scored one or less goals in 9 of their last 13 games on their own turf. They'll be expected to improve that number in this game. Olimpija Ljubljana's defence at home hasn't been watertight and some of their performances have shown some fallibility. They have conceded at least once in all of their last 4 matches which is a fact that will give fans of the upset some confidence.

Koper have actually been successful in 8 of their last 15 away matches. Impressively, they've bagged 2.1 goals on average over their last 10 away campaigns. And to have any chance at all they'll need to add to that total. Whether they can do that remains to be seen. In defence they have also posted some good numbers. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 9 away matches. While they are facing a huge challenge there is still some justification for the visitors to come through this test at the big price.

Regardless of the obvious favouritism for Olimpija Ljubljana it will be fun to see if Koper can catch them cold. It isn't a strong view and it won't be for everyone, but the Yes BTTS bet is the hesitant side bet. And for fans of the goal line, it's over 3.5 goals picked as the best play after considering the prices available.
