The majority of the first-legs in UEFA competition last week were low-scoring, low quality encounters, and that was certainly the case for this match up, too.

Petrocub vs Birkirkara prediction

That low-scoring low quality encounter in the first-leg of this UEFA Europa Conference League first qualifying round tie saw Birkirkara defeat Petrocub Hincesti by a goal to nil at the MFA Centenary Stadium, of which they share with Floriana, in Malta last week.

In a game with very little happening at either end of the pitch, it was to be Birkirkara who managed to squeeze out an advantage, courtesy of a 54th minute strike scored by Geoffrey Acheampong.

Moldovan outfit Petrocub Hincesti will certainly back themselves to be stronger than Birkirkara as they come through a domestic league table that consists of sides such as Milsami Orhei and Sheriff Tiraspol.

However, Maltese football is also improving and Birkirkara should have the required nous to ensure this remains another low-scoring encounter, regardless of the end match result.

Petrocub vs Birkirkara tip: Under 2.5 goals
