Predictions

Double chance : draw or Brighton

Form and context

FK Jablonec host Brighton in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday, with the Czech side coming off a narrow 3-2 defeat at Freiburg last week. Jablonec also lost 3-2 at home to Viktoria Plzen in the league on Sunday, though they had previously conceded only nine goals in ten games. Brighton arrive in strong scoring form, having won 5-0 against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Team news

FK Jablonec: No confirmed team news yet.
Brighton: Mats Wieffer is making encouraging progress in his recovery from a knee injury but his availability remains uncertain. Evan Ferguson, Stefanos Tzimas, Kaoru Mitoma, Femi Azeez, Pascal Struijk, Yankuba Minteh and Zadok Yohanna have all been unavailable. Minteh and Azeez are approaching returns, though Hürzeler said Azeez needs more time to adapt.

What the numbers say

Brighton have scored 3.4 goals per game across their last 10 matches in all competitions, conceding 0.7 on average.
Jablonec have averaged 1.57 goals for and 1.14 against across their last seven matches in all competitions.
Brighton are yet to concede in three European games this season.
Jablonec's coach Lubos Kozel said his side is "extremely hard to score against" and wants to slow Brighton down.

Our view

Brighton's attacking output and their clean sheet record in Europe make them clear favourites, but Jablonec showed against Freiburg that they can compete with stronger opposition. Kozel's side will look to stay compact and frustrate a Brighton team beginning a demanding run of away fixtures.

Most likely outcome: away win - Brighton's scoring rate and defensive record in Europe outweigh Jablonec's resilience.
