- 德里在过去的五场比赛中赢了四场，在这段时间里进了13球。
- 喜鹊在过去的两个赛季中，每一个赛季都输给了爱尔兰对手。
- 喜鹊队上学期最后六场比赛只赢了一场。
Derry可以获得第一回合的优势
周四，德里队将前往直布罗陀，迎战布鲁诺队的喜鹊队，开始进军联盟小组赛。
这是喜鹊队连续第三个赛季参加欧洲资格赛，到目前为止，他们只遇到过爱尔兰对手，在2022/23赛季输给了北方的十字军队，去年输给了德里的联赛对手邓多克队。
他们在欧洲主场击败十字军，以0-0战平邓多克，但坎迪斯特里普队应该有足够的实力取得领先。
德里在爱尔兰超级联赛中状态良好，他们正在挑战冠军，并在过去五场比赛中赢了四场。
客队在深入国内比赛的过程中已经全速前进，而这是喜鹊队自5月份以来的首次比赛，这可能会对他们不利。
德里最近的四场胜利中有三场是由两个或更多的进球取得的，他们可以在这里弥补-1的障碍。
喜鹊队上赛季在主场对阵邓多克的比赛中未能进球，可能会发现德里队的防守也有点太强，因为客队在25场联赛中只丢了22球。RuaidhríHiggins的球队在过去五场比赛中攻入13球，得分状态也很好，因此德里3-0获胜看起来是一个合理的正确比分预测。
- Derry have won four of their last five games, scoring 13 goals across that spell.
- Magpies have lost to Irish opposition in each of the last two seasons.
- Magpies won just one of their final six games last term.
Derry can claim first leg advantage
Derry begin their quest to reach the Conference League group stages on Thursday as they head to Gibraltar to face FC Bruno’s Magpies.
This is the third consecutive season the Magpies have been involved in European qualifying and they’ve so far only come up against Irish opponents, losing to the North’s Crusaders in 2022/23 and Derry’s league rivals Dundalk last year.
They are yet to lose at home in Europe as they beat Crusaders and held Dundalk to a 0-0 draw, but the Candystripes should have enough quality to come away with a lead.
Derry are in fine form in Ireland’s Premier Division as they challenge for the title and have won four of their last five games.
The visitors are fully up to speed as they are deep into their domestic campaign, while this is Magpies’ first competitive outing since May and that will probably work against them.
Three of Derry’s last four wins have come by two or more goals and they can cover a -1 handicap here.
Magpies failed to score against Dundalk last term in the home leg and may find Derry’s defence a bit too strong here as well, as the visitors have conceded just 22 goals in 25 league games. Ruaidhrí Higgins’ side are also in good scoring form with 13 goals across their last five games so a 3-0 win for Derry looks a reasonable correct score prediction.
