Viking FK vs Sligo -Sligo Rovers’ most prominent European experience prior to this season was a 1996 Intertoto Cup appearance, however considering their recent successes, that experience is undoubtedly no longer relevant.
While the Irish team would have anticipated to defeat Bala Town, winning on penalties added significantly to that accomplishment, and they faced the Scottish club Motherwell in the second qualifying round as obvious underdogs.
However, John Russell saw his players put in the club’s best-ever European performances, winning the away leg by a score of 1-0 before winning the rematch by a score of 2-0.
Viking FK vs Sligo- Betting Analysis
Given the style of the victory, Motherwell have since fired head coach Graham Alexander; yet, recent weeks have not been good for Sligo Rovers.
In six games across all competitions, they have experienced three losses, the most recent occurring on Sunday when they lost unexpectedly 2-1 to Wexford at home in the FAI Cup.
A Viking team that will still be celebrating their outstanding victory over Sparta Prague in the last round will have taken note of that outcome.
Before being demoted into the last 32 of the Europa Conference League, Sparta was a Europa League participant; Viking’s 2-1 aggregate victory was comparable to Sligo Rovers’ victory over Motherwell.
A last-second goal by Mai Traore gave the Dark Blues, who had been trailing their Czech opponents, a historic victory.
