Molde vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction & Betting Tips - Conference League
by Sridhar | in Conference League Predictions
Molde will look to extend their European journey and give new coach Per-Mathias Høgmo a winning start as they look to defeat Shamrock Rovers in the Conference League knockout phase play-offs. The first leg will be played at the Aker Stadion in Molde on Thursday and our prediction is over 2.5 goals.
Molde qualified for the knockout phase playoffs by finishing 23rd with seven points. They had two wins and three defeats, with only goal difference keeping them in the competition. Shamrock Rovers became the first Irish side ever to come out of the group or League Phase in Europe.
The visitors also haven’t played a competitive match since December, but that was a 5-1 defeat to Chelsea on matchday six. Although by that time they were already through to this phase, the Rovers had lost a bit of momentum.
Shamrock Rovers will have to do without three of their goal scorers from this current campaign, as Markus Poom, Johnny Kenny, and Neil Farrugia have all returned to their parent clubs or left the club permanently.

Molde - Shamrock Rovers: Form Analysis
Molde have everything to play for in this competition, as they finished fifth in the league in Norway. That means their only chance to qualify for Europe next season is to win this competition! New coach Per-Mathias Høgmo will look to stamp his authority, but can he do that in the continental competition?
Their last match in this competition was a 4-3 win on matchday six, to end their engagements with four points in two consecutive games. Both teams will look to stay alive for the second phase next week, although four wins in their last five home matches in this competition give them an edge.
Molde won all six of their previous meetings against Irish clubs.
That includes defeating the Rovers home and away in the group stage of the UEFA Conference League in 2022-23. Both wins came with a clean sheet, and another impressive defensive performance here could see them equal their best performance in continental competition.
The Irish visitors haven’t played a competitive match since matchday six either, but that was a 5-1 away defeat at Chelsea.

Molde & Shamrock Rovers Squad Analysis
The hosts have a few injury concerns to tackle, as they are set to miss Casper Oyvann with a knee injury. Veton Berisha is also ruled out of this tie due to a leg injury. Johan Bakke is another player set to miss for Molde, through an unnamed injury.
Molde will hope for goals from Ihler Frederik to keep coming, as he has netted four in this competition already. Stenevik Halldor also has one goal to his name in the Conference League this year. That said, Kristian Eriksen has two assists to his name and could be the provider again!
Rovers visited Molde in the 2022-23 Conference League, losing 3-0.
