Basel vs Brondby prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Europa Conference League qualifiers 2022–23

Basel welcome Brondby to St. Jakob-Park in the second leg of their Europa Conference League qualifying third-round clash on Thursday.

The Swiss Super League side will be looking to snap their four-game winless run and overturn their first-leg deficit.

Basel were denied their first win of the 2022-23 Super League campaign as they were held to a goalless draw by Young Boys.

They have now failed to win their last four games across all competitions, stretching back to a 2-0 victory over Crusaders FC on July 21.

Basel have now turned their attention to the Conference League qualifiers, where they will be needing to win by two or more goals on Thursday following their 1-0 loss to Brondby in the first leg.

Meanwhile, Brondby failed to get up and running in the Danish Superliga as they fell to a 4-1 loss against Copenhagen last time out.

They have now lost their last three domestic games, scoring two goals and conceding nine since their opening-game win over AGF on July 17.

Brondby will be looking to return to winning ways as they head to the Conference League, where they are unbeaten in three straight games, picking up two wins and one draw.
