Blues to mount a comeback in Belfast

Linfield will feel hard done by after falling to a 2-1 first-leg defeat in the Faroe Islands, but the Northern Irish side can mount a comeback in Belfast on Thursday.

The Blues dominated in the first leg, winning the shot count 22-3 and having over two-thirds of the ball, only to be left with a deficit to overturn thanks to an early own goal and a second-half winner against the run of play.

But Vikingur have lost six of their last eight European away games, and four of these defeats have been by more than a single goal, while Linfield have won three of their last five European home matches, scoring 11 goals in the process.

The most recent of these was a 2-0 win over Zalgiris, and that looks a likely scoreline on Thursday after their dominance in the first leg, so backing the hosts to win and a 2-0 correct score prediction appeals.
