Decic welcome HJK Helsinki to Gradski Stadion for the second leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League third round qualification tie on Thursday (August 15th). The visitors hold a narrow advantage in the tie, having claimed a 1-0 home win in the first leg in Finland last week.
Lee Erwin broke the deadlock in the 49th minute and his goal proved to be the match-winner. Neither side were in domestic action over the weekend.
They will each resume their quest to navigate their way to the next round in this contest. The winner of this tie will face the loser of the UEFA Europa League clash between Klaksvik and Borac BB in the playoff round for a place in the group stage.

Decic vs HJK Prediction
Both sides started their European campaign in the UEFA Champions League this season. However, they have each dropped into the Conference League and the loser of this tie would see their continental sojourn end. Decic have won just one of six competitive games played this season, drawing three.
HJK, for their part, have won three of their last four games and will have their focus firmly set on protecting their one-goal advantage in the tie. They have kept a clean sheet in their last three wins and another shutout could be crucial to their hopes of advancing to the playoff.
There is still a lot to play for in the tie and both sides still have a shot at qualification. We are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring staemate.
