TNS vs Djurgarden Prediction & Betting Tips (28 November)

The first representatives of Welsh football in a final phase of a European competition, the New Saints are trying as best they can to put on a good show. After logically having to surrender against Fiorentina during the first day 2-0 , this team then put in a very good performance by winning against FC Astana 2-0 before losing in the last match against the Shamrock Rovers 2-1 . In their own championship, the New Saints are in 2nd place in the standings with 4 points behind the leader, Penybont, whom they face this Saturday, after their defeat against Briton Ferry 3-1 before the international break. Quarter-finalist of the 2022-2023 edition, Djurgaarden is back this season in this Conference League with at least the ambition to exit this league phase.

The Swedes started this competition with a draw conceded against LASK 2-2. They were then beaten by Vitoria Guimaraes 1-2 before returning to success on the last day against Panathinaikos 2-1 . In the championship, the Stockholm players failed to reach one point of the podium at the beginning of the month, on the last day, despite their last success against Norrköping 3-1.

This New Saints team is made up of players who are relatively unknown to the general public and it is very likely that this squad is one of the weakest in this competition. Among the names to follow, we can remember those of the precious Bardley (6 goals), attackers McManus (5 goals) and Oteh (6 goals) and the rather interesting Williams (4 goals) who scored the only goal for his team against Shamrocks Rovers on the last day. Absent during this display against the Irish, the attacker Oteh and the defenders little or not used this season Olusunde and Astles could still be missing. Djurgaarden will play this match without potentially starting goalkeeper Jacob Rinne, important defender Johansson and often-used midfielder Schüller who are all in the infirmary at the moment.

Scorer 14 times in the league this season, Turkish striker Hümmet should be able to hold his place in this match along with the Norwegians Nguen (6 goals) and Gulliksen (5 goals). Hümmet is also showing his advantage in this competition with already 5 goals scored, qualifying included.
