Match Preview
Rijeka hosts Shelbourne in a crucial Europa League clash at the Stadion HNK Rijeka on Wednesday evening. The Croatian side comes into this match with a mixed bag of results, having won two of their last five, while Shelbourne has struggled, managing just two wins in their last five outings. Historically, Rijeka has been dominant in their encounters with Shelbourne, winning both of their previous away fixtures, which adds to their confidence heading into this match. One key angle to consider is Rijeka's strong home advantage, where they typically perform well in European competitions. With odds of 1.27 for a home win, the bookmakers clearly favour Rijeka, but the potential for goals should not be overlooked. Both teams have shown vulnerabilities in defence, making the 2.2 odds for over 2.5 goals an intriguing option. Given Shelbourne's need to secure a positive result, they may adopt a more adventurous approach, potentially leading to an open game. Expect Rijeka to leverage their home ground advantage while Shelbourne seeks to capitalize on any defensive lapses.
