Hibs welcome Legia Warsaw to the Scottish capital later this evening in their attempts to qualify for the Europa Conference League.
David Gray’s ambitious side are in strong form heading into this first-leg tie having started their domestic camp well having beaten Dundee and drawn with Kilmarnock before knocking Livingston out of the Premier Sports Cup to reach the quarter-finals.
The Hibees are also confident in Europe following a commendable draw with Midtjylland before they saw off Partizan Belgrade in the last round of qualifiers.
That second-leg evening at Easter Road will be forever remembered by fans and they will hope to add another memorable evening against the Polish giants.
Legia could not get past AEK Larnaca in their Europa League qualifiers but go into their playoff tie with Hibs knowing they have a chance. They have two wins from four in their league division at the time of writing.
Hibernian can be backed at 13/8 to win the first leg while Legia Warsaw are slightly narrower at 13/10 with leading bookmakers.
Hibs vs Legia Warsaw Bet Builder Tips
- Kieron Bowie first goal scorer @ 11/2
- Over 2.5 goals @ 4/5
Kieron Bowie first goal scorer @ 11/2
Hibs’ striker has already notched three goals in his opening six fixtures. The one against Partizan he got in the last round was an absolute stunner and one supporters will talk about for years to come.
The 22-year-old former Fulham striker seems to love the big occasion and he has hopes of breaking into Steve Clarke’s Scotland set-up. For that reason you’d feel he will be bang up for this one and at 11/2, his chance of scoring first in the tie are worth a punt.
Over 2.5 goals @ 4/5
Hibs are not exactly the best side defensively as the nine goals conceded in seven matches so far suggests. And they do enjoy a goal or two themselves with 12 in that same schedule.
The visitors are also not goal-shy but they have a bit of a leaky backline up the other end. We reckon it won’t be too tight at the back for either side who will definitely give up chances.
It’s just about the attacking stars taking them when they come.
