Legia Warsaw vs Lincoln Red Imps Prediction and Betting Tips | December 18th 2025

Legia Warsaw will host Lincoln Red Imps at the Polish Army Stadium on Thursday in the final round of the 2025-26 UEFA Conference League league phase. The home side have arguably been the most disappointing team in the Conference League this season, with last season’s quarterfinalists now eliminated from this year’s edition despite having one game still to play.

Legia suffered their fourth defeat in five league phase games last week, losing 2–1 to Noah FC. Wojskowi started on the front foot, taking the lead after just three minutes thanks to a Mileta Rajović strike, but a drop-off in performance after the break allowed their opponents to come from behind and snatch the points.

Lincoln Red Imps, meanwhile, welcomed Sigma Olomouc to the Europa Sports Park last week in search of a response after going winless in the previous two rounds. They were far from impressive but made the most of their home advantage to secure a 2-1 comeback victory, with Nicholas Pozo scoring the decisive winner.

Unlike their eliminated opponents, Lincoln have everything to play for in the final round on Thursday. They sit in the final knockout phase playoff spot with seven points and would guarantee it with a win in Poland.

Legia Warsaw vs Lincoln Red Imps Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• Thursday's game will mark the first-ever meeting between the two teams.
• Legia's only previous competitive encounter with Gibraltarian opponents came during the 2019-20 Europa League qualifiers, when they faced Europa FC and won the two-legged tie 3-0 on aggregate.
• Lincoln have conceded 11 goals in the continental showpiece this season. Only Shamrock Rovers (12) and Rapid Wien (13) have shipped more.
• Legia are without a clean sheet in their last 10 competitive outings.

Legia Warsaw vs Lincoln Red Imps Prediction

Wojskowi are on a three-game losing streak and have gone winless in their last 11 competitive outings. Despite their poor form, they remain clear favourites for Thursday’s game due to the vast gulf in class and quality between the sides and will hope that difference is reflected in the scoreline.

The Red Imps, meanwhile, have won their last four games on the trot. They will be looking to capitalize on their hosts’ woeful form, but will need something truly special to come away with anything on Thursday.
