HJK vs Larne 12.07.2023 Prediction: UEFA Champions League qualification

Match Overview

HJK take on Larne in the first round of their UEFA Champions League qualification competition on Wednesday. The home team will back themselves to come good, more so now that their defenders have found an edge and proved to their supporters that they can protect their net rather well. Larne's attackers, however, will want to differ.  

Key Highlights

Larne come into this game on the back of a poor result they had against Coleraine and will want to do better than that. HJK, for their part, will want their midfielders to press on the opponents throughout the innings and try to seize the ball from them when they were not in possession. HJK will also be cheered on by their raucous supporters.   

Injury Report

Neither team has any major injuries in their respective squad. This means that they will be able to field their best possible starting lineups for this match.

Prediction

HJK are the overwhelming favourites to win this game over Larne, but we should not get too ahead of ourselves. Although HJK come into this game on the back of five unbeaten results at the time of writing, Larne might end up having a say by the end of the evening after all. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game.
