The New Saints vs Djurgarden Prediction

TNS come into this match after a thrilling win over Welsh league leaders Penybont so confidence will be on a high ahead of this one. They went two goals down in that match but scored three second half goals to fightback and win a vital three points.

Despite not being able to play at home in Europe, they are relishing their European campaign this season. They pulled off a 2-0 win over Astana in their last home match and despite losses away to Fiorentina and Shamrock Rovers, they are loving the opportunity to play in Europe.

They welcome Swedish club Djurgarden to Shrewsbury and it will be interesting to see how their different preparations work out ahead of this match. TNS have played seven matches already in a hectic November schedule while Djurgarden have not played since November 10th when the Swedish league finished. They have played a friendly against Elfsborg to prepare for this match but they may lack a bit of sharpness.

Star striker Deniz Hummet will be their main attacking threat and after picking up four points from their first three matches, they will be targeting a win to leap up the standings.

We fancy their chances of doing just that. TNS have had such a frenetic schedule, while their motivation will be there, the quality of Djurgarden should shine through in the end.
