Koper
- Koper are 9 wins and 1 draw in their last 10 matches, and undefeated in 3 home games.
- In this UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026, Koper are 3 from 3 on home turf, averaging 2.33 goals per game scored and 1.00 conceded.
NSI Runavík
- NSI Runavík are a decent side, but have won just 5 of their last 10 in all competitions (D3, L2).
- Their recent five matches have yielded 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat, but they did beat Hamrun Spartans 2-1 away before losing 2-0 to Koper on home soil.
- Runavík have won 3, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their last 5 away matches in all competitions, scoring 2.80 goals per away game.
- Sigurður Ragnar Eyjólfsson has them set up to play with a bit more tempo and they press hard to win the ball back, so we could see a interesting battle of press vs build in this game.
Head-to-Head
The hosts are on a 5-game winning streak, and they come into this game having won their previous 2 matches 2-0, away at NK Nafta Lendava and at home to NSI Runavík.
Key Players
- Brown Irabor is the main threat, netting 2 goals in 1 UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 match, and 4 of their last 8 goals across the last 5 games.
- Petur Knudsen is Runavík's talisman, scoring 2 goals in 3 games in this UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 campaign, and 3 of their last 6 goals in the last 5 games.
Betting Insights
- Koper are the clear favorites for this matchup at 1.48 and NSI Runavík at 6.15 are way too big for a draw at 4.9.
- Over 2.5 at 1.52 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.72 look good bets for this one, but the odds on the win for Koper are just about good enough to go for a controlled, dominant win for the home side on Thursday.
Prediction
Runavík are a good side, but Koper look set to win again at SRC Bonifika Stadion in Slovenia on Thursday and their odds are still attractive.
