In the first semi-final match of the Conference League qualification, RFS won away from home against UE Santa Coloma with a score of 2:0. Will the hosts play to win on August 14 or will they dry up the game? - you will find the answer in the betting tip. What bets does our expert pay attention to?

Command Analysis

RFS

Current form
RFS is performing well in the national championship. After 26 rounds, the "schoolchildren" are leading the tournament table, ahead of their closest pursuer by four points and have a game in hand.
Over the last 20 matches, the hosts of the upcoming match have lost only twice, and both matches were in the Champions League qualification to Bodo-Glimt. In principle, there is nothing surprising, because the Norwegians are currently clearly an order of magnitude higher in terms of playing class. It is impossible not to notice the scoring statistics of the Latvian club. In the last three games, they managed to score ten goals, while they conceded only once.

UE Santa Coloma

Current form
UE Santa Coloma has already made a historic achievement, as this season for the first time they have passed at least one stage of the European Cup qualification. This happened in the Champions League against Balkan (they managed to win in a penalty shootout). After that, as expected, they were knocked out in two matches by Midtjylland (0:3 and 0:1).
In the Europa League, the team got into a strong RFS and, it seems, it will not be able to get past it, because a two-goal loss on its home field indicates that the Andorans are not yet ready to compete with the Latvian team. The club clearly lacks game practice, because the domestic championship has not yet started, and you can’t really play in European Cup matches.
Interesting trends for betting
- 14.4 fouls players commit on average per match
- 4.3 corners are served
- 0.6 goals are scored
Estimated composition
Ruiz - Ribeiro, Garcia, Cete, Daku - Virgili, Mohedano, Lopez, Joaquinete - De Jesus, Martinez

1.80Tip and bets
RFSh is an order of magnitude higher in terms of playing class and even though they managed to win the first face-to-face match by a few goals, the Latvians will not play a give-away game, because the matches ahead are much more important and they must not lose their good playing form under any circumstances.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (-1.5) on RFSh with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
RFS will not slow down and will be able to control the course of the match from the first to the last minute. In three of the last five matches on their home field they managed to keep a clean sheet. It is quite possible that they will be able to do so this time too.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 1.67
Bet on corners
Based on our description, RFS should win the match without breaking a sweat, both in terms of the score and other indicators. We'll bet on the hosts making significantly more corner kicks.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (-1.5) corners on RFSh with odds of 1.50
