Maribor are valued at 2.30 odds to win against HJK. The hosts have a better team and are very likely to win, backing them to win this game at 2.30 odds is a very valuable bet in this fixture.

HJK travel to the Ljudski vrt Stadium on Thursday where they face Maribor in the first leg of the Europa League qualification - round 3.

Maribor dropped from the Uefa champions league qualifications to the Europa League qualifications. The hosts fell to a narrow one nil defeat against Sheriff Tiraspol, they now play in the Europa League qualifications where they are stronger than many teams, and are favourites to progress to the next round.

The hosts are unbeaten in their last two home games heading into this fixture, winning one and drawing one. They have had their fair share of troubles this season but they play very well in home games. Maribor are also better than HJK in squad quality and there's a very good chance they take an advantage ahead of the second leg next week.

Radovan Karanovic's team won their last home game in a 3-2 home victory against Gorica. They conceded early after 17 minutes but first half goals from Roko Baturina and Nino Zulgej gave the hosts a 2-1 lead. Ivan Brnic extended the lead few minutes to the half hour mark. An own goal from Ron Kronaveter wasn't enough to take points off Maribor.

HJK experienced an embarrassing knockout from the Uefa champions league qualifications, losing to Viktoria Plzen over two legs with an aggregate score of 7-1.

Toni Koskela's team are behind KuPs in the Finnish league. They have been poor in their games away from home this season. HJK have lost three of their last five away games in all competitions, picking up one win and a draw. Their last away game in a knockout was the 5-0 loss away to Viktoria Plzen.

This is the first meeting between these two teams, Maribor need to take an advantage going into the second leg in Finland next week.

Maribor are clearly the better team and have the home advantage in this fixture, backing them to win at 2.30 odds is the best available bet in this fixture and it carries a lot of value.

HJK将于周四前往Ljudski vrt球场，在那里他们将在欧联杯资格赛第3轮的首回合对阵马里博尔。

马里博尔从欧冠资格下降到欧联杯资格。东道主以1:0的比分险胜蒂拉斯波尔，他们现在正在参加欧联杯资格赛，他们比许多球队都要强大，是晋级下一轮的热门球队。

东道主在过去的两场主场比赛中保持不败，一胜一平。他们本赛季遇到了不少麻烦，但他们在主场打得很好。马里博尔的阵容质量也比HJK好，他们很有可能在下周的次回合比赛中占据优势。

拉多万·卡拉诺维奇的球队在上一场主场比赛中3-2战胜了戈里卡。他们在第17分钟就输掉了比赛，但是巴图林纳和祖尔盖吉在上半场的进球帮助东道主2-1领先。伊万·布尼克将领先优势扩大了几分钟，达到了半小时。罗恩·克罗纳维特的一个乌龙球不足以让马里博尔拿分。

HJK在欧冠资格赛中经历了一场尴尬的淘汰赛，两回合总比分7比1输给了普拉岑。

Toni Koskela的团队在芬兰联赛中落后于KuPs。本赛季他们在客场比赛中表现不佳。HJK在过去的5场客场比赛中输掉了3场，取得了1胜1平的成绩。他们在最后一场淘汰赛中的客场比赛是0比5输给了普拉森。

这是两队的第一次交手，马里博尔需要利用优势进入下周在芬兰的次回合比赛。

马里博尔显然是一支更好的球队，在这场比赛中拥有主场优势，支持他们取胜是这场比赛中最好的赌注，它具有很大的价值。
