Hibernian vs Inter Club Prediction and Betting Tips

Hibernian entertain Inter Club at the Easter Road Stadium in the UEFA Europa Conference League second qualifying round on Thursday (August 3).

The hosts returned to the competition this year after failing to qualify in the previous edition. Their first attempt ended in the third qualifying round in 2021-22. However, the Scottish side need to overturn a 2-1 deficit from the first leg as they seek to reach the next round..

Hibs lost 2-1 in the first leg but lived up to expectations. They trailed by two goals till added time when Joseph Newell reduced the arrears to keep their hopes alive ahead of the second leg. Hibernian have won four of their last five home games, though.

Meanwhile, Inter were disappointed after the final whistle in the first leg. The unexpected late goal from Hibernian dealt a huge blow and complicates their mission to reach Edinburgh. Although the Andorran club boast an impressive away record, conserving a lone-goal lead on the road appears challenging.

Inter are in their third Europa Conference League but are yet to make their way beyond the second qualifying round. Their success in the first leg could be attributed to a relentless attack, which gradually lost steam towards the end. They're unlikely to keep such a rhythm in the second leg.
