Samsunspor and Hamrun Spartans will square off in a UEFA Conference League clash on Thursday (November 6th). The game will be played at Samsun 19 Mayis Stadyumu.
The home side will be looking to build on the 3-1 away win they registered over Konyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig over the weekend. They were 2-0 up at the break thanks to goals from Anthony Musaba and Cherif Ndiaye while Riechedly Bazoer's 57th-minute own goal made it 3-0. Umut Nayir pulled one back two minutes later.
Hamrun, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a 2-0 away win over Birkirkara in the Maltese Super League. Emerson and Semir Smajlagic scored first-half goals to help their side claim the win.
The Knives will shift focus to the continent, where their last game saw them fall to a 1-0 defeat at home to Swiss outfit Lausanne. Samsunspor thrashed Dynamo Kyiv 3-0 at home.
The win kept them in fifth spot in the standings, as one of six sides to have maximum points from two games. Hamrun are one of six sides yet to register their first points on the board.

Samsunspor vs Hamrun Spartans Prediction
Samsunspor are the overwhelming favorites to emerge triumphant here and will be expected to claim maximum points. The Red Lightning are competing in the main stage of a European competition for the first time in almost three decades and a win here would take them one step closer to the knockout rounds.
Hamrun made history by becoming the first club from Malta to make their debut in a UEFA competition. However, they are unlikely to extend their stay on the continent beyond the league phase.
We are backing the hosts to claim a comfortable victory with goals at both ends.
